Scientists have developed a new technique for predicting the final size of a wildfire from the moment of ignition.

According to a new study, dysfunctional eating patterns and habits in overweight and obese adults can be triggered by early life experiences that are deeply rooted within patients’ personality features.

Researchers are looking the ‘hypar’ origami for ways to leverage its structural properties.

Blood pressure levels in patients with hypertension did not improve when patients took part in automated texting or were given electronic pill bottles.

New results show that human-acquired antibiotic resistance genes are being transmitted to livestock, companion animals and wildlife. Researchers analyzed a global set of 901 genome sequences of the bacteria Streptococcus agalactiae (aka group B Strep) from nine different host species — humans, cows, dogs, fish, frogs, gray seals, dolphins, goats and a camel — to […]

In work suggesting new therapeutic targets to fight obesity, researchers have identified a novel mechanism that regulates the creation of fat in mammals.

Scientists have demonstrated a way for police to quickly and safely test whether a baggie or other package contains illegal drugs without having to handle any suspicious contents directly. The new technique can limit the risk of accidental exposure to fentanyl and other highly potent drugs that can be dangerous if a small amount is […]

Researchers are studying how proteins regulate the stem cells of plants.

Using a new technique to study brain development, scientists were able to trace the causes of Huntington’s back to early developmental stages when the brain has only just begun to form.

A computer generated-simulation allowed researchers to see how a toxin produced by algal blooms in saltwater might cause Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
