A new systematic review and meta-analysis by an international group of researchers has found giving a blood thinning drug (thrombolysis) before treatment to remove a clot from the brain - known as thrombectomy procedure - to stroke patients,
An often overlooked feature could give scientists new insight into the lives of ancient primate species.
Researchers from North Carolina State University have developed a new process that makes use of existing industry standard techniques for making III-nitride semiconductor materials, but results in layered materials that will make LEDs and lasers more efficient.
Snakes rank among Americans’ top animal phobias, and are among the most disliked animals globally.
Any writer can tell you that who is narrating a story makes a significant difference to the audience.
For the first time, researchers have been able capture images providing unprecedented details of how particles behave in a liquid suspension when the phenomenon known as shear thickening takes place.
The structure of light-harvesting antennas in a species of cyanobacteria is revealed, yielding insights into energy transfer mechanisms during photosynthesis
New information could lead to bacteria-based platforms that recycle plastic and plant waste
Social scientist and synthetic biologist collaborate to tackle a global challenge
Trial shows viral suppression is not achieved through increased case management alone
New class of materials has ‘no counterpart or analogue in nature’
A key ingredient to lithium-ion batteries’ supply chain is not built to last
Bandage also monitors the healing process, alerting clinicians to issues in real time
New insights could advance microfluidics and drug delivery systems
In the course of experiments to test how well commercial bumblebees pollinate early spring crops, researchers made a surprising discovery: dead wild bumblebee queens in the hives, an average of 10 per nest box.
Scientists have detected a layer of melted rock encircling the Earth below its tectonic plates. Patches of the layer were known to exist, but a new study by a group of universities including Cornell has for the first time revealed its global extent.
Wash your hands. Wear a high-quality mask. Keep 6 feet between you and others. Meet outside when possible.
A synthetic biosensor found in cell membranes and provides an electronic readout of activity.
The ongoing search for signs of life on Mars relies in part on terrestrial analogs – places on Earth closely resembling the past or current geology and climate of the red planet that can be readily explored.
Cornell researchers have unearthed precise, microscopic clues to where magma is stored, offering scientists – and government officials in populated areas – a way to better assess the risk of volcanic eruptions.
