Texas A&M researchers designed a new reinforcement-based system that automates the prediction of subsurface environments.
A 4.4 million-year-old skeleton could show how early humans moved and began to walk upright, according to new research led by a Texas A&M anthropology professor.
The Human Genome Project (HGP), the world’s largest collaborative biological project, was a 13-year effort led by the U.S. government with the goal of generating the first full sequence of the human genome
While Hawaiʻi’s economic reliance on tourism took a major hit during the COVID-19 pandemic, the industry has periodically been punctured by shocks. For example, the 1991 recession, 9/11, the 2001 recession and the Great Recession all led to sharp declines in tourist numbers and spending.
Associate Professor of Biology Li Tao at the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo is doing research into the mechanisms of cell division to find clues for cancer treatment, and has published his most recent findings in Science Signaling.
A new study by researchers at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa found that 1 out of 5 (20%) Hawaiʻi residents have participated in the uniquely Hawaiian sport of outrigger paddling.
Liver cancer is the fourth deadliest cancer in Hawaiʻi, particularly affecting Native Hawaiian, Filipino and Japanese men.
The Kuiper Belt is a massive disk of icy bodies, including Pluto, that is located just outside of Neptune’s orbit in our solar system.
Resource managers and conservationists have been offered an innovative, new approach to selecting coral species for reef restoration
It’s believed early settlers to the islands eventually changed the landscape of the Bahamas.
A Texas A&M study found key differences in the rates at which individuals in rural and urban areas wear face coverings in public and work from home.
Potential Applications Could Lead to a Net-Zero World
Chemical engineers created a coating for microbes that could make it easier to deploy the organisms to treat gastrointestinal disease.
The system could help physicians select the least risky treatments in urgent situations, such as treating sepsis.
The carbon balance in peatlands worldwide may shift from a sink (absorbing carbon) to a source (releasing carbon) this century primarily due to human impacts across the tropics, according to a paper published in Nature Climate Change by a multidisciplinary team of scientists, including Dave Beilman, associate professor of geography and environment in the College of Social Sciences.
Rates of mortality from COVID-19 are lower in areas where public health measures aimed at preventing the spread of the disease were implemented earlier in the outbreak, according to a study from University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa public health researchers. The findings are published in PLOS ONE.
Cosmetics, food supplements, pharmaceuticals and textile dyes are just a few of the many uses of natural pigments.
After years of development and testing, researchers from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution have successfully demonstrated that a fleet of autonomous robots can track and study a moving microbial community in an open-ocean eddy
A recently discovered protein structure that controls the protein’s function and influences human health has been explained by University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa researchers.
From centuries of studying the planets within our solar system, astronomers have wondered how planets form and evolve to become the ones we observe today.
