| Protein supplement helps control Type 2 diabetes Posted: 27 May 2022 05:52 AM PDT A study which holds potential for dietary management of the condition, has shown that drinking a small amount of why protein before meals helps people with type 2 diabetes control their blood sugar. The work shows for the first time this works in people as they went about normal everyday life. |
| Posted: 27 May 2022 05:52 AM PDT Artificial Intelligence (AI) can track the health of coral reefs by learning the 'song of the reef', new research shows. |
| British coral predicted to be resilient to climate change Posted: 27 May 2022 05:52 AM PDT An iconic coral species found in UK waters could expand its range due to climate change, new research shows. |
| Just being exposed to new things makes people 'ready to learn' Posted: 27 May 2022 05:52 AM PDT A new study is one of the first to provide experimental evidence that people learn from incidental exposure to things that they know nothing about and aren't even trying to understand. |
| Posted: 26 May 2022 03:11 PM PDT For tens of thousands of years, Aboriginal Australians have created some of the world's most striking artworks. Today their work continues long lines of ancestral traditions, stories of the past and connections to current cultural landscapes, which is why researchers are keen on better understanding and preserving the cultural heritage within. By revealing the chemistry of plant secretions, or exudates, recent studies build a basis for better understanding and conserving art and tools made with plant materials. |
| Frozen eggs more efficient option than IVF for women starting families later Posted: 26 May 2022 03:11 PM PDT A large U.S. study shows 15 years of frozen egg thaw outcomes for women facing age-related fertility decline. |
| Discovery offers starting point for better gene-editing tools Posted: 26 May 2022 12:18 PM PDT New research has big implications for genomic medicine. Scientists have defined with atomic precision a new genome editing tool that is less than half the size of CRISPR-Cas9 -- currently the most reliable genome editing system. This new tool would allow scientists to fit genetic editors into smaller viral delivery systems to fix a variety of diseases. |
| How to tie-dye cotton with acorns and rust Posted: 26 May 2022 12:18 PM PDT Tie-dyeing is a fun activity that can spice up clothes with colorful patterns. Although kits are available in stores, nature provides dyes that can be extracted from items found in one's yard -- for example, acorns and rust. Researchers now present a 'green' process for tie-dyeing cotton with renewable resources and wastes that undergraduate students can easily do under minimal supervision. The activity links together science, art and sustainability. |
| Autonomous underwater imaging: Faster and more accurate Posted: 26 May 2022 11:48 AM PDT Recently conducted tests used new algorithms to outperform state-of-the-art programming for autonomous underwater sonar imaging, significantly improving the speed and accuracy for identifying objects such as explosive mines, sunken ships, airplane black boxes, pipelines and corrosion on ship hulls. |
| New type of extremely reactive substance in the atmosphere Posted: 26 May 2022 11:15 AM PDT An entirely new class of super-reactive chemical compounds has been discovered under atmospheric conditions. Researchers have documented the formation of so-called trioxides -- an extremely oxidizing chemical compound that likely affects both human health and our global climate. |
| A synthetic antibiotic may help turn the tide against drug-resistant pathogens Posted: 26 May 2022 11:15 AM PDT A synthesized antibiotic derived from computer models of bacterial gene products appears to neutralize even drug-resistant bacteria. The compound, named cilagicin, works well in mice and employs a novel mechanism to attack MRSA, C. diff, and several other deadly pathogens. |
| Scientists shine new light on role of Earth's orbit in the fate of ancient ice sheets Posted: 26 May 2022 11:15 AM PDT Scientists have finally put to bed a long-standing question over the role of Earth's orbit in driving global ice age cycles. |
| More young people begin recreational cannabis use illegally in states that legalize it Posted: 26 May 2022 06:55 AM PDT Once a state legalizes recreational cannabis and increase in youth using it illegally occurs, report researchers. |
| Helping submersibles navigate more safely in shallow water Posted: 26 May 2022 06:55 AM PDT Researchers propose a process for improving the accuracy of acoustic positioning in shallow water using a mathematical method for removing the reflected waves. This work may lead to the safer navigation of submarines and divers in ports and other narrow waters. |
| Cryogenic electron microscopy reveals drug targets against common fungus Posted: 25 May 2022 12:17 PM PDT Scientists have used single-particle cryogenic electron microscopy to determine the structure of the ribosome of Candida albicans. Their results reveal a potential target for new drugs. |
| New research reveals how the heart repairs after a heart attack Posted: 25 May 2022 10:12 AM PDT Immune response and the lymphatic system are central to cardiac repair after a heart attack, according to a new study. These insights into the basic mechanisms of cardiac repair are the first step towards developing novel therapeutic approaches to preserve heart function. |
