According to an international study conducted by UZH experts, Arctic warming causes temperature anomalies and cold damage millions of km distant in East...
The elimination of all animal agriculture in the following 15 years would severely diminish greenhouse gas emissions and remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Research into the climatological impacts of raising animals for food implicates that eliminating all animal agriculture has the potentially to considerably change the direction of global warming. The project is a cooperation...
A genome study carried out by Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center scientists to search for variants in a gene thought about an essential building block for microscopic structures that manufacture proteins took a shocking twist. Human ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes are essential for constructing ribosomes or mechanisms that translate proteins. The study findings, to be...

Assistant Professor Marzyeh Ghassemi analyzes how disguised biases in medical data can jeopardize artificial intelligence approaches. While completing her dissertation in computer science at MIT, Marzyeh Ghassemi wrote numerous papers on how machine learning strategies from artificial intelligence could be applied to medical data to anticipate patient outcomes. "It was not till the end of...
In nations like Denmark and Germany, gifts are given on Christmas Eve rather than Christmas morning. Furthermore, on Christmas Eve 2021, 587 groups of researchers at universities around Australia got a festive present from the Australian Research Council (ARC), in the form of information that their 2022 Discovery Projects were to be financed. More brutally,...

Every cell in your body is encased by one. And each of those cells contains specialized chambers, or organelles, which are similarly confined by membranes. Membranes assist cells in accomplishing tasks like...
DETI mapping results from the brain of a person viewing one of the stimuli used in the experiment (far left). The central column shows a flattened topographical map of the electrodes over the back of the head, illustrating the variation of DETI maps at each electrode across that scalp region. On the right-hand side,...

Considerably increased risk in teenagers after the second dosage may call for sophisticated vaccination strategies. A case-control research study found an elevated relative risk of carditis associated with BNT162b2 (also known...
