Mussels downstream of wastewater treatment plant contain radium, study reports
Burrowed into streambeds and rarely moving for their decades-long lifespans, freshwater mussels are biomonitors, meaning they indicate how clean their environment is, according to Penn State researchers. As the bivalves feed on organic matter and fil.....»»
New photonic crystal approach can enable sensitive and affordable detection of biomarkers
Biomarkers are small molecules of interest to researchers, because they can indicate underlying diseases, often even before symptoms even appear. However, detecting these markers can be challenging as they are often present in very low quantities, es.....»»
Mutations in a non-coding gene associated with intellectual disability

Driverless racing is real, terrible, and strangely exciting
The Abu Dhabi Autonomous Racing League proves it’s possible, just very hard. Enlarge / No one's entirely sure if driverless racing will be any good to watch, but before we find that out, people have to actually develop driverle.....»»
Novel mobile air monitoring technology yields greater insight into post-disaster pollution levels
A team including researchers from the Texas A&M University School of Public Health and School of Medicine has found that high resolution mass spectrometry could be a valuable tool for identifying and assessing air-borne contaminants produced by natur.....»»
Racial resentment fueled Jan. 6 rebellion and opposition to House probe, scholars find
Americans are deeply divided over the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, and it's widely assumed the split reflects our bitter partisan conflicts. But a new study co-authored at UC Berkeley suggests one source of division stronger than.....»»
