Researchers have created a new material that uses ‘redox gating’ to control the movement of electrons in and out of a semiconducting material.

Space travel and zero gravity can take a toll on the body. A new study has found that astronauts with no prior history of headaches may experience migraine and tension-type headaches during long-haul space flight, which includes more than 10 days in sp…

Mechanical engineers have devised a diagnostic platform that uses sound waves to spin an individual drop of water up to 6000 revolutions per minute. These speeds separate tiny biological particles within samples placed in a very light disc sitting on t…

A new study has identified a link between poor sleep and migraine attacks that suggests improving sleep health may diminish migraine attacks in people with migraine.

Spending quality time with dogs reduces stress and increases the power of brain waves associated with relaxation and concentration, according to a new study.

Researchers found a way to screen cancer-linked gene mutations much more easily and quickly than existing approaches, using a variant of CRISPR genome-editing known as prime editing.

Rainforest seedlings are more likely to survive in natural forests than in places where logging has happened — even if tree restoration projects have taken place, new research shows.

Individual wellbeing doesn’t always add up to team wellbeing — but reflection and open communication can help.

Sand ripples are symmetrical. Yet wind — which causes them — is very much not. Furthermore, sand ripples can be found on Mars and on Earth. They would be even more fascinating if the same effect found on Mars could be found here on Earth as well. Wha…

Researchers may have discovered a mechanical explanation for instability observed in the lungs in cases of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), particularly in the aftermath of respiratory illnesses such as COVID-19 or pneumonia.

Scientists have shown in theoretical models of turbulence that even molecular motions can create large-scale patterns of randomness over a defined period of time.
