By looking at individual atoms in tooth enamel, researchers are learning what happens to our teeth as we age
Teeth are essential for helping people break down the food they eat, and are protected by enamel, which helps them withstand the large amount of stress they experience as people chew away. Unlike other materials in the body, enamel has no way to repa.....»»
Here’s what we learned driving Audi’s new Q6 and SQ6 electric SUVs
Audi's mid-sized electric SUV is now on sale in the US, and we've tested it. Audi provided flights from Washington, DC, to San Francisco and accommodation so Ars could drive the Q.....»»
New physics sim trains robots 430,000 times faster than reality
"Genesis" can compress training times from decades into hours using 3D worlds conjured from text. On Thursday, a large group of university and private industry researchers unveile.....»»
New "molecular flipbook" gives researchers the best look yet at ribosomal motion
At one time or another, most of us have played with a flipbook, using our thumbs to rapidly flip a series of pictures to create an illusion of movement......»»

Sugar solution matches antibiotics in treating cow infections
A concentrated sugar solution could be just as effective as antibiotics at treating a common infection in dairy cows, according to a new study led by researchers at Penn State. The results were recently published in the journal Frontiers in Veterinar.....»»
Researchers unveil chip for quick antibiotic monitoring in water
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global health crisis because of microbes, such as bacteria, becoming resistant to antibiotics. A leading factor in this rise is the improper use and disposal of antibiotics in the environment......»»
Researchers highlight role "workhorse protein" plays in keeping nervous system running smoothly
A team of researchers from the University of Massachusetts Amherst is the first to show how proteins called "chaperones" are vital in ensuring that neurons can transmit signals to one another. When this neurotransmission breaks down, devastating dise.....»»
