University of Missouri researchers made the discovery while using bioluminescent imaging technology to study how nicotinamide riboside supplements work.
For college football teams that win six or more games in a season, their reward is the opportunity to play in a postseason bowl game on national television.
In September, researchers from California and Denmark were awarded a Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their development of ‘click’ chemistry, a process in which molecules snap together like LEGO, making them a potentially more efficient transportation device in delivering pharmaceuticals to cancer tumors.
Monkeypox has infected more than 77,000 people in more than 100 countries worldwide, and — similar to COVID-19 — mutations have enabled the virus to grow stronger and smarter, evading antiviral drugs and vaccines in its mission to infect more people.
A new experiment demonstrates the mechanism for how the most stable gas-phase form of iodine -- known as iodic acid -- forms, and suggests it has a catalytic role in atmospheric particle formation.
Screen time spent alone may hinder children’s language development. According to a researcher, the focus should be on parent–child interaction instead of the time spent in front of screens.
An international group of geologists has demonstrated with computer simulation that huge magma eruptions can initiate deeper below the Earth’s surface than previously believed. Such flood basalt eruptions have caused many global climate changes and great mass extinction events in the past.
A new study from the University of Helsinki demonstrates the added value of genetic information in measuring inherited disease risk, alongside the widely used assessment of family history.
An international research group led by Finnish scientists has identified several new risk factors for dementia-causing diseases. The group found strong evidence that mechanisms related to autoimmune diseases play a role in the development of dementia.
On the basis of archaeological research, it was possible to identify human remains as a child who may have been laid on a bed of down in a Stone Age burial site discovered under a gravel road in eastern Finland. There may also have been a canid at the child’s feet.
Spectroscopic observations with JWST confirm four early galaxies dating back to less than 400 million years after the Big Bang, three of which are the most distant confirmed to date

Colombia is a global hotspot for biological diversity and has almost 2,000 species of birds—more than any other country in the world.
Novel approach integrates complex datasets from screening of natural products libraries, improving characterization of bioactive molecules and their mechanisms of action
UCSC scientists point to introners as the source of the vast majority of introns, a source of molecular complexity unique to eukaryotes
The new system can increase reproducibility in cerebral organoid research and shows promise for lowering levels of cellular stress
A 'mystery molecule' seen in the initial spectrum has been identified as sulfur dioxide produced by photochemical reactions in the planet’s atmosphere
A new study presents a framework for assessing and mitigating the impacts of offshore wind energy development on marine birds
In many communities around the world, students’ ability and enthusiasm to pursue STEM fields in their high school and college careers is limited by a lack of resources which prevent them from accessing complex, project-based curriculum like their peers
Great gray predators rely on sound, not sight
