Researchers at North Carolina State University believe a lack of diversity in health-related pictures on stock photography sites could hinder the effectiveness of communications to those audiences.
Researchers have found that sustainability planning was less likely to occur in areas that experienced significant manufacturing job losses in the last half-century, according to a new study.
There could be cause for concern for the future of the U.S. timber industry after a North Carolina State study believes the amount of trees used for timber could drop by 23% by the year 2100.
Canadian researchers have discovered positive news in the fight against colorectal cancer, reporting for the first time that mice had reduced postoperative complications when the animals had modified intestinal flora prior to surgery
Researchers at the University of Michigan reportedly have found the oldest well-preserved vertebrate brain to date, which was discovered in a fossilized fish skull from a specimen in England more than a century ago.
A “grazing encounter” may have smashed the moon to bits to form Saturn’s rings, a new study suggests.
The MIT researcher and former professor discusses how Covid-19 and the influx of virtual technologies created a new medical ecosystem that needs more synchronized oversight.
Researchers have developed a biodegradable system based on silk to replace microplastics added to agricultural products, paints, and cosmetics.
This family of crystalline compounds is at the forefront of research seeking alternatives to silicon.
Genes. They’re what control the way living things look and even function, what eye color they may have and even what diseases they may live with. Scientists have worked for decades to understand how some genes get switched on while others are switched off, or silenced, determining which traits are expressed.
Cats are cats. Any cat lover knows they can transition from sweet and cuddly to stubborn and sassy with a mind of their own. That is especially the case when cats need to take medicine orally.
Human presence and influence on landscapes change the way other animals interact by bringing them close together more frequently than happens in wilder places.
Retinal cells grown from stem cells can reach out and connect with neighbors, according to a new study, completing a “handshake” that may show the cells are ready for trials in humans with degenerative eye disorders.
New results from researchers at MIT reveal an unexpected feature of atomic nuclei when a “magic” number of neutrons is reached.
This robotic system uses radio frequency signals, computer vision, and complex reasoning to efficiently find items hidden under a pile.
Researchers demonstrate two security methods that efficiently protect analog-to-digital converters from powerful attacks that aim to steal user data.
A team of researchers at the University of Wisconsin–Madison has successfully combined genomics with machine learning in the quest to develop accessible tests that allow earlier detection of cancer.
Approaching the 3-year anniversary of the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, many can attest to the mental health challenges that came with the sudden changes to everyday life as the disease took hold.
Gene therapies have the potential to treat neurological disorders like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, but they face a common barrier — the blood-brain barrier.
Classical computers rarely make mistakes, thanks largely to the digital behavior of semiconductor transistors. They are either on or they’re off, corresponding to the ones and zeros of classical bits.
