A new study from North Carolina State University finds carrying pollen is a workout that significantly increases the body temperature of bumble bees.
A new study shows that truncated versions of the Tau protein are more likely to form the sticky filaments seen in the brains of people with Alzheimer’s disease.
In a study tracking climate-induced changes in the distribution of animals and their effects on ecosystem functions,
A new technology called RIBOmap can give researchers valuable insight into how protein production in animal and human tissue is altered in disease.
North Carolina State University researchers have developed a computational model that allows the military to make more efficient use of helicopters,
CLIMATE The first experiments with glacial rock flour from Greenland show that it can capture significant amounts of CO2 and provide a wider array of nutrients than commercial organic fertilizers, resulting in improved crop growth. In the long term, the glacial rock flour can be of great importance in stopping climate change. The researcher behind the studies calls it a "promising, scalable solution."
In two new studies, North Carolina State University researchers designed and tested a series of textile fibers that can change shape and generate force like a muscle.
The color changes reflect significant shifts in essential marine ecosystems.
In a new study, North Carolina State University researchers demonstrated that it’s possible to make carbon dioxide capture filters using 3D printing.
A new study finds a chemical formed when we digest a widely used sweetener is “genotoxic,” meaning it breaks up DNA.
When young adults are more interested in socializing and casually dating, they tend to drink more alcohol, according to new research led by a Washington State University professor.
Vision transformers (ViTs) are powerful artificial intelligence (AI) technologies that can identify or categorize objects in images – however, there are significant challenges related to both computing power requirements and decision-making transparency.
Researchers at North Carolina State University have identified significant differences in the gut microbiome of female southern white rhinos who are reproducing successfully in captivity,
When given cash with no strings attached, low- and middle-income parents increased their spending on their children, according to Washington State University research.
A newly discovered plant-eating dinosaur may have been a species’ “last gasp” during a period when Earth’s warming climate forced massive changes to global dinosaur populations.
New research suggests the influx of Ukrainian refugees across Europe will improve long-term gross domestic product (GDP) for European countries that invest in infrastructure and other capital improvements.
Researchers have developed a “homing gene drive system” based on CRISPR/Cas9 that could be used to suppress populations of Drosophila suzukii vinegar flies –
In what may be a sign of climate-change-induced conflict, researchers have captured rare photographic evidence of a jaguar killing another predatory wild cat at an isolated waterhole in Guatemala.
In a new study, researchers from North Carolina State University used a computer model to understand how African swine fever (ASF) might spread among swine farms in the southeastern U.S. –
Researchers at North Carolina State University have discovered a new distinct form of silicon called Q-silicon which, among other interesting properties, is ferromagnetic at room temperature.
