For The Better

Researchers have designed a malleable robotic arm that can be guided into shape by a person using augmented reality (AR) goggles.

An interdisciplinary research team has successfully developed an innovative inhibitor that shows promise in fighting obesity and potentially preventing heart disease. The team developed an anti-obesity drug that blocks the effects of cytochrome P450 8B…

Even light-to-moderate drinking is associated with harm to the brain, according to a new study. Researchers analyzed data from more than 36,000 adults that found a link between drinking and reduced brain volume that begins at an average consumption lev…

3D structural findings are reported on a critical component of the Nipah virus’ infection mechanism, and how antibodies home in on an important part of the machinery that attaches the virus to host cells. The results point to multipronged strategies fo…

Researchers have succeeded in identifying a technique that makes cadmium, selenium and telluride (CdSeTe) solar cells more efficient than silicon cells.

A new study found that resistance exercise may be superior to aerobic exercise as a way to get better sleep. A year-long resistance exercise program improved sleep quality, duration and other indicators of a good night’s sleep more so than aerobic exer…

Relatively small, but fearsome-looking stegosaur measured about 2.8 meters (9 feet) from nose to tail — but scientists can’t tell whether the remains are those of an adult or juvenile.

Study shows that L. iners has unique nutritional requirements that distinguish it from L. crispatus, potentially allowing it to be targeted using novel therapeutic strategies.
