UC San Francisco researchers identified a brain circuit linking the amygdala and hippocampus that determines resilience to stress. Stimulating this circuit in mice reversed indecision and depressive behaviors.

New research suggests severe COVID-19 arises in part from the SARS-CoV-2 virus’s impact on mitochondria, which can help trigger a cascade of organ- and immune-system-damaging events.

Researchers have developed a revolutionary bone graft substitute inspired by coral which not only promotes faster healing but dissolves naturally in the body after the repair is complete.

Researchers have developed an optical fiber sensing system that could help medical professionals monitor patients for complications after a traumatic brain injury.

A team of researchers from the University of Potsdam and the Chinese Academy of Sciences combined perovskite and organic solar cells to create a record-setting tandem solar cell with 25.7% efficiency.

Researchers at WSU directly observed microplastic fibers’ movement in soil, finding they tumble, roll, and often get trapped. The study highlights their slower movement compared to microbeads and the challenges of tracking them.

New discoveries that provide a deeper understanding of how Alzheimer's develops have emerged from spider brain research.

Oregon State researchers discovered that exposing a copper-based MOF to ammonia gas doubles its CO2 adsorption ability. This method enhances carbon capture efficiency without increasing regeneration energy.

University of Michigan researchers identified UBA1 as a key player in immunotherapy resistance. Inhibiting UBA1 boosts T-cell recruitment, converting cold tumors to hot, and enhancing the effectiveness of immune checkpoint blockade therapies.

Researchers have identified the BOOSTER gene in poplar trees, enhancing photosynthesis by increasing Rubisco content. In greenhouse and field tests, trees with higher BOOSTER expression grew up to 37% taller.
