A new portable MRI device detected specific brain abnormalities in 29 of 30 patients taken to Yale New Haven Hospital’s neuroscience intensive care unit after presenting with symptoms of stroke and other neurological disorders, according to a new study published Sept. 8 in the journal JAMA Neurology.
What would you do if you knew how long you had until Alzheimer’s disease set in?
Pioneering new research has revealed the first direct evidence that groups of stars can tear apart their planet-forming disk, leaving it warped and with tilted rings.
Black carbon released when fossil fuel or biomass burns does not play as important of a role as once believed in the formation of ice particles in mid-level clouds, according to a new study.
The first artificial intelligence algorithm that can detect when spacecraft crosses back and forth from the Earth’s magnetic field to the Sun’s could help scientists whose main goal is to find punctures in the Earth’s magnetic bubble.
An ancient species of dog, believed to be extinct in the wild, was recently discovered roaming near the largest gold mine in the world in Papua, Indonesia. The ancient dog breed may revive a dying species and add a new chapter to the understanding of human vocal learning.
From a chance glance by a hiker on a storied Grand Canyon trail, a paleontologist and colleagues managed to trace the footsteps of an animal that lived more than 300 million years ago, and unearth a previously unknown — and surprising — evolutionary quirk.
Scientists combining light pulses with traditional microscopy have demonstrated how it is possible to capture vastly clearer images of the quantum world.
Princeton University will have a major leadership role in a new Co-Design Center for Quantum Advantage, headquartered at Brookhaven National Laboratory and funded by the U.S. Department of Energy.
Scientists hope new methods can mitigate the chronic shortage of personal protective equipment
While some may want to write off climate change as a myth, there are real world concerns that bear further consideration including a current development involving bees and flowers.
Since blue whirls were discovered in 2016, they have captured the imagination of the scientific community for a potential new avenue for low emission combustion.
Four pediatric diabetes centers in the country found during a clinical trial that a new artificial pancreas system is safe for children as young as six years old who have type one diabetes.
A dent in Earth's magnetic field, which is currently small but described by NASA as "evolving," is being observed by the agency's researchers, according to an Aug. 17 press release from NASA.
A NASA research space scientist, who as a child became excited when she learned that Earth is a planet, is now looking for life on exoplanets.
A recent paper by two scientists who studied crustaceans highlights the discovery that the wingless insects’ gene network was similar to that of insects – showing the gene network preceded the actual development of insect wings.
Fossil fuels are no longer the top producer of sulphur into the environment, a new study found.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) invest over $1 billion each year into biomedical development efforts by small businesses across the country, and has now created an interactive mapping tool to help people to understand the impact of that funding.
Researchers from the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute have discovered “several new, undescribed animals, genera and species never seen or photographed before” in the Pacific Ocean near Panama’s Coiba National Park
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has announced funding for a new Physics Frontier Center, hosted at the University of Rochester, with Princeton co-principal investigators Adam Burrows, professor of astrophysical sciences, and Tom Duffy, professor of geosciences, to study the physics and astrophysical implications of matter under extreme pressures and temperatures.
