| Towards straintronics: Guiding excitons in 2D materials Posted: 30 Oct 2021 07:18 PM PDT Physicists have made an advancement in the study of excitons -- electrically neutral quasiparticles that exist in insulators, semi-conductors and some liquids. The researchers are announcing the creation of an 'excitonic' wire, or one-dimensional channel for excitons. This in turn could result in innovative devices that could one day replace certain tasks that are now performed by standard transistor technology. |
| Is it worth trying to sway the most staunch climate deniers? Posted: 30 Oct 2021 07:18 PM PDT A researcher surveyed 645 Americans about their beliefs on climate change -- whether or not those beliefs are informed by fact or fiction -- to assess their communication behaviors about climate change. |
| New study shows environmental and social factors contribute to higher rates of pneumonia in children Posted: 30 Oct 2021 07:18 PM PDT A new study demonstrates that children who are exposed to a certain type of environmental air pollution are more likely to contract community acquired pneumonia, or CAP, and to be hospitalized for longer periods of time. Social factors, including race and socioeconomic status, were also found to be associated with living in high-risk areas for CAP. |
| Dopamine’s many roles, explained Posted: 30 Oct 2021 07:17 PM PDT Studying fruit flies, researchers ask how a single brain chemical can orchestrate diverse functions such as learning, motivation and movement. |
| How foodborne diseases protect the gut's nervous system Posted: 30 Oct 2021 07:17 PM PDT Prior infections appear to shield enteric neurons, preventing these key components of the body's 'second brain' from dying off when future pathogens strike. |
| Posted: 29 Oct 2021 12:22 PM PDT COVID vaccines are five times more effective at preventing COVID-related hospitalization than prior infection alone, according to new research. The study was conducted by CDC's VISION Network which gathered data from more than 201,000 hospitalizations in nine different states. |
