Managing meandering waterways in a changing world
Just as water moves through a river, rivers themselves move across the landscape. They carve valleys and canyons, create floodplains and deltas, and transport...
Use of acid reflux drugs linked to higher risk of migraine
People who take acid-reducing drugs may have a higher risk of migraine and other severe headache than people who do not take these medications,...
A closed-loop drug-delivery system could improve chemotherapy
To improve chemotherapy dosing, engineers designed CLAUDIA, a way to continuously measure how much drug is in a patient's system during hours-long infusion.
Scientists tune the entanglement structure in an array of qubits
A new technique can generate batches of certain entangled states in a quantum processor. This advance could help scientists study the fundamental quantum property...
Human activities have an intense impact on Earth’s deep subsurface fluid flow
Hydrologists predict human-induced underground fluid fluxes to rise with climate change mitigation strategies like carbon sequestration.
Artificial intelligence helps scientists engineer plants to fight climate change
Scientists are using artificial intelligence software to analyze plant root systems, laying out a protocol that can be applied to gather data on crop...
How light can vaporize water without the need for heat
Researchers discovered that light can cause evaporation of water from a surface without the need for heat. This 'photomolecular effect' could be important for...
Positive perceptions of solar projects
A new survey has found that for residents living within three miles of a large-scale solar development, positive attitudes outnumbered negative attitudes by almost...
Tumor cells evade the immune system early on: Newly discovered mechanism could significantly improve...
Tumors actively prevent the formation of immune responses by so-called cytotoxic T cells, which are essential in combating cancer. Researchers have now uncovered for...
Mini-colons revolutionize colorectal cancer research
In a breakthrough for cancer research, scientists have created lab-grown mini-colons that can accurately mimic the development of colorectal tumors, offering a powerful new...
