Billions of quantum entangled electrons found in ‘strange metal’
Physicists have observed quantum entanglement among 'billions of billions' of flowing electrons in a quantum critical material. The research provides the strongest direct evidence...
Low doses of radiation used in medical imaging lead to mutations in cell cultures
Common medical imaging procedures use low doses of radiation that are believed to be safe. A new study, however, finds that in human cell...
Mobile protected areas needed to protect biodiversity in the high seas
As the United Nations rewrites the laws of the high seas, the new document should anticipate emerging technologies that allow protected areas to move...
Researchers investigate molecule, VISTA, which keeps immune system quiet against cancer
Researchers are studying a valuable target in regulating the immune response in cancer and autoimmunity. VISTA is a tempering molecule that hinders T cells...
In death of dinosaurs, it was all about the asteroid — not volcanoes
Volcanic activity did not play a direct role in the mass extinction event that killed the dinosaurs, according to an international team of researchers....
Mosquitoes engineered to repel dengue virus
Scientists have synthetically engineered mosquitoes that halt the transmission of the dengue virus. Biologists developed a human antibody for dengue suppression in Aedes aegypti...
New model shows how crop rotation helps combat plant pests
A new computational model shows how different patterns of crop rotation -- planting different crops at different times in the same field -- can...
Efficacy of drugs against pork tapeworm
Taenia solium -- also called pork tapeworm -- is a parasite which causes disease around the world, particularly in very poor communities with deficient...
