A new type of enzyme mimetic has been developed to degrade toxic chemicals in industrial wastewater in the presence of sunlight.

A new study published today, analysing wastewater samples from several aged care and retirement homes in Adelaide, has uncovered worrying signs of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in at least one facility.

UMass Amherst researchers have pushed forward the boundaries of biomedical engineering one hundredfold with a new method for DNA detection with unprecedented sensitivity.

New research has shown that PFAS exposure can delay the onset of puberty in girls, which may lead to negative long-term health outcomes.

The remains of a turtle shell recently found on Panama’s Caribbean coast represent the oldest fossil evidence of these turtles ever found. The discovery of the fossil indicates that this turtle lived approximately 6 million years ago.

A new study has provided the first clear picture of where language processes are located in the brain. The findings may be useful in clinical trials involving language recovery after brain injury.

A team of researchers has uncovered a previously unknown compensatory mechanism found in liver disease. If Kupffer cells (KCs) become impaired by tissue scarring, immune cells originating in the bone marrow flow to the organ.

A team of scientists have presented research findings that reveal a crucial role of biological particles, including pollen, spores, and bacteria, in the formation of ice within Arctic clouds.

A protein scaffold that holds smaller proteins in place has enhanced cryo-EM, enabling the high-quality visualization of small molecules.

Researchers found that the ectoderm does not lose its pluripotency in gastrulation after all. This answers the long-standing question posed by developmental biologists on how the neural crest has such a high stem cell potential.
