Barley Finds Uses Beyond Beer
Before launching their latest science experiment, researchers bought more than 200 types of tea, chocolate, herbs and other foodstuffs. The goal wasn't to stock up for long hours in the lab, but rather to find an elusive, edible contrast agent to show doctors what's happening inside our bodies.

Revealing Secrets of 'Hot' & 'Cold' Pancreatic Cancer Tumors
So-called "hot" tumors filled with T cells are often considered to be more sensitive to immunotherapy compared to "cold" tumors with fewer T cells, but a clear demonstration of why has eluded cancer biologists--until now. Scientists have now discovered that whether a tumor is hot or cold is determined by information embedded in the cancer cells themselves.

How "Cellular Butlers" Get Our DNA in Shape
A tremendous amount of genetic material must be packed into the nucleus of every cell—a tiny compartment. By what means are certain regions of this packaged DNA unpackaged and used to manufacture RNA and proteins? New work has shed light on this process, with implications for certain age-related diseases and organ decay.

Path to Zero Carbon Emissions may be Steep
Carbon dioxide emissions from human activities must approach zero within several decades to avoid risking grave damage from the effects of climate change. This will require creativity and innovation, because some types of industrial sources of atmospheric carbon lack affordable emissions-free substitutes.

Novel Drug Partially Restores Hearing in Mice
A small-molecule drug is the first to preserve hearing in a mouse model of an inherited form of progressive human deafness. The study sheds light on the molecular mechanism that underlies a form of deafness (DFNA27), and suggests a new treatment strategy.

How Flu Surface Molecules Reach Out & Hijack Target Cells
Scientists have directly visualized in real-time structural changes in the surface protein of the influenza virus that may help the virus to fuse with and enter target cells before hijacking their functions. The discovery shows the flu virus to be more dynamic than previously thought and may help efforts to develop more effective vaccines and better understand other viruses such as Ebola, HIV, and SARS.
