Mobility-related data show the pandemic has had a lasting effect, limiting the breadth of places people visit in cities.
If women want to lean in to work, they may first want to lie down for a good night’s rest.
Vaccine hesitancy may be more attributed to partisan media exposure and an individual’s pre-existing attitudes, rather than a lack of information about vaccine effectiveness, according to a Washington State University study.
A new computational tool empowers decision-makers to target interventions.
We human beings need plants for our survival. Everything we eat consists of plants or animals that depend on plants somewhere along the food chain. Plants also form the backbone of natural ecosystems, and they absorb about 30 percent of all the carbon dioxide emitted by humans each year. But as the impacts of climate change worsen, how are higher levels of CO2 in the atmosphere and warmer temperatures affecting the plant world?
Understanding antibody responses will be key to offset coronavirus variants' evasion of earlier immunity.
A study recently published in Harm Reduction Journal examined a Seattle-based organization’s efforts to introduce heroin pipes as a means to diminish harms associated with injection drug use.
A small pilot study suggests that the technology meets the demand for a clinician to witness a patient’s daily dose.
Computers can competently parse snippets of typed conversation for warning signs of serious mental illness, psychiatry researchers find.
Omnipose is trained to recognize bacteria of all shapes and sizes in mixed bacterial cultures.
Among people with HSV-1 genital infections, shedding of the virus declined rapidly during the first year.
Study findings suggest that a vaccine could be used to prevent or treat a particularly aggressive form of breast cancer.
Scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Caltech have developed a benchmarking protocol that can be used to determine the accuracy of quantum analog simulators by analyzing their random fluctuations, according to a news release.
Like humans, wild animals often return to the same places to eat, walk on the same paths to travel and use the same places to raise their young
A new study has revealed the most intense heatwaves ever across the world – and remarkably some of these went almost unnoticed decades ago.
Scientists have found that a key modern group of reptiles that includes lizards and snakes – known as squamates – diverged in the Jurassic period, 50 million years earlier than previously thought.
A new study published today in Animal Behaviour shows for the first time that brilliant iridescence and gloss found in some animals can have a protective function by working as a form of deceptive warning colouration, and that it is the key feature of iridescence, its changing colours, that is important for this effect.
Gene duplication increased the diversity and specificity of enzymes that enable beetle larvae to degrade important wood components.
Tobacco hornworms neutralize different defense mechanisms of tobacco plants after ingestion
A perovskite-based device that combines aspects of electronics and photonics may open doors to new kinds of computer chips or quantum qubits.
