What's in a name? Glimmers of evolution in naming babies, choosing a dog Posted: 30 May 2022 09:04 AM PDT Maverick was first used as a baby name after a television show called 'Maverick' aired in the 1950s, but its popularity rose meteorically in 1986 with the release of the movie 'Top Gun.' Today, it is even used for baby girls. |
Ultrasound-guided microbubbles boost immunotherapy efficacy Posted: 30 May 2022 09:04 AM PDT Researchers have developed an ultrasound-guided cancer immunotherapy platform that generates systemic antitumor immunity and improves the therapeutic efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade. |
The paired perils of breast cancer and diabetes Posted: 30 May 2022 09:03 AM PDT Researchers have discovered a mechanism linking breast cancer and diabetes, each of which promotes development and growth of the other. |
Fjords emit as much methane as all the deep oceans globally Posted: 30 May 2022 05:57 AM PDT During heavy storms, the normally stratified layers of water in ocean fjords get mixed, which leads to oxygenation of the fjord floor. But these storm events also result in a spike in methane emissions from fjords to the atmosphere. Researchers have estimated that the total emissions of this climate-warming gas are as great from fjords as from all the deep ocean areas in the world put together. |
Spines of life: Fast-breeding sea urchin provides new model for genetic research Posted: 27 May 2022 07:12 AM PDT Researchers have established the sea urchin species Temnopleurus reevesii as a new model for genetic research. Unlike urchins previously used as biological models, T. reevesii has a short breeding cycle and other features that make it ideal for genetic studies. The team created two genome databases that will contribute to numerous fields, and enable future studies to find an even better model for medical and life science research. |
Critical global water questions Posted: 26 May 2022 08:28 AM PDT Recent intense heatwaves in India and widespread US droughts have highlighted the need for a global approach to tackling chronic water shortages. Now, new research has drawn together expert voices from across the globe to help address current and future water challenges. Key areas identified include water scarcity, sanitation and climate dynamics. But the main concern is the way governments are equipped to deal with these challenges. |
