Despite this significant role, research into the diversity of microorganisms found in the ocean has thus far been only rudimentary. This also includes the chemical compounds they produce. Could such compounds benefit humans as well?

A study by UCLA has shown that a synthetic IL-9 receptor assists T cell therapy to be carried out to treat cancerous tumors without the need for chemo or radiation.

A new guide to programming quantum algorithms walks programmers through every step, from theory to implementing the algorithms on IBM’s publicly available 5-qubit ibmqx4 quantum computer and others.

We put our clothes through a lot and if the smart textiles of the future are going to survive all that we throw at them, their components are going to need to be resilient.

An experiment, elegant in its simplicity, helps explain why water becomes electrified when it touches hydrophobic surfaces.

Scientists from the University of Barcelona and Rockefeller University carried out a study in which the genomic sequences of the oxytocin and vasotocin genes between modern humans, non-human primate species and archaic humans were compared to understand the evolution of human prosociality.

Researchers at the University of Tokyo have revealed the important role of the protein syntaxin in influencing the migratory behavior of the nematode worms. With the help of this study, researchers can also explore in the future the migratory behavior of mammals.

An AI tool was assessed by researchers to predict cancer risk in lung nodules. The study was led by the Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania and the model seems to work equally well on diagnostic CT and low-dose screening CT.

Due to global warming, temperatures in the Arctic are climbing rapidly. As a result, the treeline for Siberian larch forests is steadily advancing to the north, gradually supplanting the broad expanses of tundra which are home to a unique mix of flora and fauna.

Reef health can be measured with the help of sound recordings. Scientists at the University of Exeter conducted a study in which a computer algorithm was trained to identify healthy and degraded reefs based on numerous recordings. The result showed that the computer successfully identified reef health 92 % of the time.
