A study from UC Davis and Stanford shows that materials like concrete and plastics could lock away gigatons of CO2 using innovative techniques, helping meet global emissions targets while promoting a circular economy.

Researchers have developed nanostructured alumina surfaces that resist bacterial growth while supporting cell cultures. This development could transform regenerative medicine by enabling antibiotic-free, high-quality cell cultures, reducing contamination risks, and advancing medical treatments.

A new study has revealed that smartwatches can play a crucial role in helping people to quit smoking. A custom app fitted on the smartwatch makes use of its in-built motion sensors to detect typical smoking movements and raises awareness by sending a message which has the potential to help people quit smoking.

In a new study, scientists have discovered 34 new seagrass meadows in the Red Sea by tracking the foraging behavior of green turtles. With the help of this innovative way, scientists can now survey marine ecosystems that are crucial for carbon capture and economic livelihoods.

Chemists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed a groundbreaking method to upcycle discarded plastics into superior materials with enhanced properties. By editing polymer structures at the molecular level, this innovative approach could revolutionize recycling, reduce waste, and pave the way for a sustainable circular economy.

A recent study reveals how immune cells act as “postmen” in a complex conversation between the nervous, immune, and hormonal systems, regulating blood sugar during energy shortages. This discovery opens new pathways for managing diabetes, obesity, and cancer.

New research reveals that intermuscular fat, often overlooked by traditional metrics like BMI, significantly increases the risk of heart attacks and heart failure. The findings, published in the European Heart Journal, underscore the need for better risk assessment tools and personalized treatments to address the dangers of fatty muscle tissue.

Scientists at Caltech and Princeton have uncovered how bacteria in polymer-rich environments like mucus form entangled cable-like structures, offering new insights into infections, biofilms, and industrial challenges. This study reveals surprising parallels between biological and non-living gels, paving the way for future research and innovative solutions.

Researchers have revealed that people who drink coffee in the morning have a lower risk of cardiovascular disease as well as lower overall mortality risk compared to people that drink coffee all-day.

With the aim of extending health longevity, scientists at the Center on the Biology of Aging are rapidly advancing their research on aging. The research has the potential to transform human health and life.
