More effort is needed to bring salt-tolerant crops to the farmers who need them.

Coastal ecosystems emit methane and nitrous oxide and act as a sink for carbon dioxide. New findings of the greenhouse gas balance of these ecosystems around the world show them to act as a net greenhouse gas sink.

Researchers have developed a new method to help improve drug delivery in chronic wounds that have been infected with Staphylococcus aureus.

After finding hundreds of clinics worldwide offering unproven stem cell "therapies" for conditions including Parkinson's and hair loss, scientists are calling for tighter regulation of stem cell treatments.

New research reveals how coral cells tag friendly algae before ingesting them, initiating a mutually beneficial relationship. This information could guide next-level coral conservation efforts.

Doctors are one step closer to having a risk biomarker to alert them to which of their pediatric stem cell transplant patients are likely to experience a potentially deadly side effect called sinusoidal obstruction syndrome.

Scientists from the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) have, for the first time, recorded pain-related data from the brains of patients with chronic pain conditions.

Brain waves carry information. A new “Cytoelectric Coupling” hypothesis posits that fluctuating electric fields optimize brain network efficiency and stability by shaping the brain’s molecular infrastructure.

Chemical engineers have developed an industrial process to produce acetic acid that uses the excess carbon dioxide(CO2) in the atmosphere, and has a potential to create negative carbon emissions.

Results of a Phase 2a clinical trial suggest that peresolimab, an antibody that stimulates the human programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) pathway, could be a promising new approach for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
