Research in electric fish could inform studies of sensory disorders like tinnitus

Robot technology that mimics the brains of insects could be developed for jobs that do not require sophisticated skills

Like with fingerprints, no two people have the same brain anatomy, a study by researchers of the University of Zurich has shown. This uniqueness is the result of a combination of genetic factors and individual life experiences.

Research could herald use of a dietary intervention in those at risk of AD

The Palm Desert facility will offer comprehensive compliance testing services in addition to research and development into new cannabis products.

The proteins in our bodies are sophisticated structures that perform specific jobs to keep us functioning and healthy. Understanding how a protein is wired could help researchers develop ways to control its activity. A new technique lets researchers look into the atomic structures of proteins to see that wiring.

Men are willing to purchase more showy, expensive engagement rings when they imagine themselves with an attractive woman.

Stormwater retention ponds, a ubiquitous feature in developed landscapes worldwide, are not a significant source of climate-warming nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions, a new study finds.

Persistent organic pollutants skulk around the environment threatening human health through direct contact, inhalation, and most commonly, eating contaminated food. Now new research suggests it might be just as important to pay attention to the origin of your food’s food.

Researchers from the University of Illinois at Chicago are the first to describe why CRISPR gene editing sometimes fails to work, and how the process can be made to be much more efficient.
