Researchers discover new material for optically-controlled magnetic memory
Researchers at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) have made unexpected progress toward developing a new optical memory that can quickly and energy-efficiently store and access computational data. While studying a.....»»
Researchers finally identify the ocean’s “mystery mollusk”
It's a nudibranch, but so distantly related that it gets its own phylogenetic family. Some of the most bizarre lifeforms on Earth lurk in the deeper realms of the ocean. There was.....»»
The shocking speed of AWS key exploitation
It’s no secret that developers often inadvertently expose AWS access keys online and we know that these keys are being scraped and misused by attackers before organizations get a chance to revoke them. Clutch Security researchers performed a te.....»»
Novel organoid mimics all three key cell types of pancreas to offer a view of early fetal development
Researchers from the Organoid group (previously Clevers group) at the Hubrecht Institute have developed a new organoid that mimics the human fetal pancreas, offering a clearer view of its early development. The researchers were able to recreate a com.....»»

Physics experiment proves patterns in chaos in peculiar quantum realm
Patterns in chaos have been proven, in the incredibly tiny quantum realm, by an international team co-led by UC Santa Cruz physicist Jairo Velasco, Jr. In a new paper published on November 27 in Nature, the researchers detail an experiment that confi.....»»
New theory of flexible multimodal synchrony advances understanding of human interaction
Researchers from Bar-Ilan University and Haifa University have unveiled a new theory of interpersonal synchrony that redefines how we understand social coordination and its role in human interaction. Titled "A Theory of Flexible Multimodal Synchrony,.....»»
Peroxisomal protein boosts plant immunity to thrive under environmental stress
Salicylic acid is vital for protecting plants from pathogens, but its synthesis remains unclear. A team of Shinshu University researchers has discovered that the protein HSR201 is key to its production. They found that HSR201 localizes to specific or.....»»
Disadvantaged urban populations are subject to greater heat stress, poor air quality
Researchers at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) have employed a NASA open-source program to reveal that disadvantaged populations may be subject to greater heat stress and poor air quality. The study is published in the journal GeoHealth.....»»
Scientists create an enzyme not found in nature for use in efficient synthetic metabolic pathways
A team of researchers led by Tobias Erb at the Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology in Marburg has succeeded in developing a new enzyme. The "lactyl-CoA mutase" can efficiently convert a key metabolic compound into valuable products......»»
School segregation widens racial achievement gaps among Black, white and Hispanic students
New sociological research finds that school segregation continues to widen racial achievement gaps among Black, Hispanic, and white students in U.S. public schools. Analyzing standardized test scores from millions of students, researchers concluded t.....»»
Hexagons of hexagonal boron nitride join up to form 2D insulator for next-gen electronic devices

Report: Almost 1 in 10 UK workers increasingly trapped in precarious work
It is concerning that 8% of UK workers are "increasingly precarious"—likely to be stuck in low-paid, insecure or otherwise uncertain work—say researchers from UCL in a new report on the UK labor market......»»
Clay minerals: Researchers observe for the first time how sediment particles align during deposition
Clay minerals are a major constituent of the Earth's surface and are mainly found in the sediments of lakes, rivers and oceans. The properties of clay and claystone depend on how the tiny sediment particles are orientated. Using the European Synchrot.....»»
Researchers encourage switching planes for trains to decarbonize holidays
Up to 41% of Britons holidaying abroad could travel by rail instead of air to cut down on carbon emissions, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Leeds......»»
