| New research optimizes body's own immune system to fight cancer Posted: 14 May 2021 10:42 AM PDT A new study shows how engineered immune cells used in new cancer therapies can overcome physical barriers to allow a patient's own immune system to fight tumors. The research could improve cancer therapies in the future for millions of people worldwide. |
| Virtual reality warps your sense of time Posted: 14 May 2021 10:42 AM PDT Psychology researchers found that playing games in virtual reality creates an effect called 'time compression,' where time goes by faster than you think. The research team compared time perception during gameplay using conventional monitors and virtual reality to determine that this effect is uniquely linked to the virtual reality format. |
| Which animals will survive climate change? Posted: 14 May 2021 10:41 AM PDT Climate change is exacerbating problems like habitat loss and temperatures swings that have already pushed many animal species to the brink. But can scientists predict which animals will be able to adapt and survive? Using genome sequencing, researchers show that some fish, like the threespine stickleback, can adapt very rapidly to extreme seasonal changes. Their findings could help scientists forecast the evolutionary future of these populations. |
| Antarctic ice sheet retreat could trigger chain reaction Posted: 13 May 2021 09:39 AM PDT The Antarctic ice sheet was even more unstable in the past than previously thought, and at times possibly came close to collapse, new research suggests. The findings raise concerns that, in a warmer climate, exposing the land underneath the ice sheet as it retreats will increase rainfall on Antarctica, and this could trigger processes that accelerate further ice loss. |
| Harnessing the hum of fluorescent lights for more efficient computing Posted: 12 May 2021 05:34 AM PDT The property that makes fluorescent lights buzz could power a new generation of more efficient computing devices that store data with magnetic fields, rather than electricity. |
