Reproducibility is integral to science, but difficult to achieve. Previous research has quantified low rates of data availability and results reproducibility across the biological and behavioural sciences.
UCLA study reveals that thermal variations can impact monsoons and flooding
In large, complex societies, assorting with others with similar social norms or behaviors can facilitate successful coordination and cooperation.
Identifying traits that help wildlife adapt to urban living can help cities bolster biodiversity through better urban planning
The origins of human speech are obscure; it is still unclear what aspects are unique to our species or shared with our evolutionary cousins, in part due to a lack of a common framework for comparison.
UCLA-led team of astronomers finds no young binary stars near Milky Way’s black hole
Study in mice shows scarring of collagen ‘highway’ prevents stem cells from healing damaged tissue in Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Behavioral flexibility, the ability to change behavior when circumstances change based on learning from previous experience, is thought to play an important role in a species ability to successfully adapt to new environments and expand its geographic range.
UCLA-led study assesses complex effects of environmental stressors
For the first time, a unique study conducted at Lund University in Sweden has tracked the meteorite flux to Earth over the past 500 million years
Researchers in Lund, Copenhagen and Norwich have shown that harmful mutations present in the DNA play an important – yet neglected – role in the conservation and translocation programs of threatened species.
An international group of clinicians and scientists from MIT and Lund University, among others, have analysed how individual genetic changes affect the heart muscle
Universal school lunch programs make students healthier, and increase their lifetime income by 3%, according to a unique study from Lund University in Sweden published in The Review of Economic Studies.
Since 2005, the guidelines for the care of unconscious cardiac arrest patients have been to cool the body temperature down to 33 degrees Celsius.
Extreme differences in flight altitude between day and night may have been an undetected pattern amongst migratory birds – until now
When researchers at Lund University in Sweden performed advanced analyses of sputum from the airways of severely ill Covid-19 patients, they found high levels of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs).
To counter the effects of antibiotics, bacteria constantly evolve resistance mechanisms.
One way scientists can estimate a person’s risk for a wide range of diseases is a measure called a polygenic score.
Genomic research could support conservation efforts for endangered species
New MIT particles could be used to deliver cancer drugs to nearly any type of tumor.
