| Scientists reveal genetic architecture underlying alcohol, cigarette abuse Posted: 19 Jul 2022 01:21 PM PDT Researchers used a new kind of computational tool to parse the complicated genetics that put some people at higher risk of becoming addicted to alcohol, cigarettes, and likely other substances. |
| New model predicts how temperature affects life from quantum to classical scales Posted: 19 Jul 2022 01:20 PM PDT A new theory explains how every process depends on temperature. This theory could help researchers make accurate predictions in a range of areas, including biological responses to climate change, the spread of infectious diseases, and food production. |
| Go with the flow: New findings about moving electricity could improve fusion devices Posted: 19 Jul 2022 01:19 PM PDT Researchers have found that updating a mathematical model to include a physical property known as resistivity could lead to the improved design of doughnut-shaped fusion facilities known as tokamaks. |
| Toward manufacturing semitransparent solar cells the size of windows Posted: 19 Jul 2022 08:34 AM PDT In an important step toward bringing transparent solar cells to home windows, researchers have developed a way to manufacture their highly efficient and semitransparent solar cells. |
| Posted: 19 Jul 2022 06:12 AM PDT Researchers developed a new approach using artificial intelligence to automate the design of individualised dentures, in order to enhance the treatment efficiency and improve patient experience. |
| New approach to exposing illegal and informal mercury trading Posted: 19 Jul 2022 06:12 AM PDT The Minamata Convention (MC) aims to restrict and limit the trading of mercury, a highly toxic pollutant. While most countries involved in artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM), the biggest source of mercury pollution, are MC parties, its efficacy has remained unclear. Researchers have now developed a new method of examining global mercury trade data inconsistencies based on estimating and comparing the mercury input of ASGM activities to the total mercury available domestically. |
| Climate warming, water management impacts on West Florida's continental shelf Posted: 19 Jul 2022 06:11 AM PDT Scientists conducted a study that provides an assessment of the potential effects of climate warming and water management of the West Florida Shelf dynamics during two particular events that affect its hydrology through the lens of a very high-resolution model. |
| Researcher uses graphene for same-time, same-position biomolecule isolation and sensing Posted: 18 Jul 2022 12:43 PM PDT New research has overcome a major challenge to isolating and detecting molecules at the same time and at the same location in a microdevice. The work demonstrates an important advance in using graphene for electrokinetic biosample processing and analysis and could allow lab-on-a-chip devices to become smaller and achieve results faster. |
| A quantum wave in two crystals Posted: 18 Jul 2022 06:39 AM PDT One of the most important experiments of quantum physics gets a makeover: When neutrons are fired at a crystal, they can be made to travel along two paths at the same time. Until now, this was only possible in one single atom -- now scientists succeeded in achieving neutron interference in two separate crystals. This can boost the accuracy of the measurements dramatically, opening up completely now research areas. |
| Towards stable, sustained Raman imaging of large samples at the nanoscale Posted: 15 Jul 2022 11:21 AM PDT Optical nano-imaging techniques find immense applications in nanotechnology for visualizing nanoscale defects in samples. However, it is challenging to image large micron-sized samples at nanoscale resolution owing to signal distortions resulting from unavoidable thermal and mechanical drifts of the system over time. Now, researchers from Japan have developed an ultrastable nano-imaging system that successfully detects unique nanoscale defects not observed in conventional nano-imaging in micron-scale tungsten disulfide samples, widening the technique's scope to biological samples. |
| Posted: 15 Jul 2022 07:57 AM PDT Researchers in Singapore have found that the increased use of videoconferencing platforms during the COVID-19 pandemic contributed to a higher level of fatigue, as reported by workers. |
| Defending the validity of Stokes-Einstein equation in living systems Posted: 13 Jul 2022 05:13 PM PDT New research defends the validity of the Stokes-Einstein equation, one of Albert Einstein's most famous equations, as it relates to biology. The research will help scientists better understand antibiotic resistance and the mechanical properties of cancer cells. |
