A new perspective article in npj Parkinson’s Disease (2026) explores how exposure to ionizing radiation could intersect with the biological processes implicated in Parkinson’s disease....
A team led by Li and colleagues has unveiled a flexible MRI receive coil engineered to stay mechanically stable while delivering high-fidelity images across both...
Engineers at the University of California San Diego have built what they describe as a first-of-its-kind integrated smart ring designed for daily biochemical monitoring. Unlike...
In papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), cancer progression is increasingly understood as a product of two intertwined signaling engines: MAPK and PI3K/AKT. While these pathways normally...
Knitting has evolved beyond comfort wear. In a new study from Harvard SEAS, researchers demonstrate how ordinary weft knitting can be engineered into shape-shifting textiles...
A new multi-year field study from Peru’s Piura region challenges a long-held assumption in cocoa agriculture: native fine-flavor cacao may be just as productive as...
Domestic chickens have long fascinated biologists with their feather diversity—ranging from barred and speckled patterns to uniform black and crisp snowy white. For centuries, selective...
Saber-toothed cats (Smilodon fatalis) from the La Brea Tar Pits preserve more than just bones—they also retain a medical record of what may have been...
Viral polymerases of the Nairoviridae family are unusually large, and until now their atomic details have remained largely unexplored. In a new study, researchers report...
Influenza A virus is infamous for its speed—yet the molecular choreography inside infected cells is still being uncovered. In a new study published in Nature...
Potassium is stepping into the spotlight as researchers report a new route toward the elusive low-loss performance limit in plasmonics. In a study published in...
Sulfur(VI)-containing functional groups, such as sulfonamides, sulfinates and sulfonyl fluorides, are ubiquitous in pharmaceuticals, where they confer unique physicochemical properties that enhance metabolic stability, solubility...
A team led by Stettler, Navarro-Gessé, Collado and colleagues has unveiled a new kind of bulk acoustic resonator (BAR) designed specifically to expand the bandwidth...
A study in Nature Communications reports that lactic acid produced by host cells can blunt the antiviral power of interferons (IFNs), reshaping how innate immune...
A new study suggests that tweaking how payments for environmental services (PES) work could make them significantly more cost-effective in the Brazilian Amazon. Researchers report...
