A team from Unige and Swiss TPH has published a large study covering more than a decade of data on the effects of mobile phones on semen quality of young men.

The Net Zero Innovation Portfolio of the UK Government’s Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy has awarded 7.7 million pounds to a consortium including the University of Bristol, EDF UK, Ukaea and Urenco to develop an innovative hydrogen energy storage project.

As the effects of climate change mount, ecosystem restoration in the US West has garnered significant public attention, bolstered by President Joe Biden's America the Beautiful plan to conserve 30 percent of US land and water by 2030. A team of scientists follows up on the Biden plan with a proposal for a Western Rewilding Network.

The abbreviation ‘HPLC’ stands for High-Performance Liquid Chromatography. In a previous article, we already reported on chromatography, what it is and how it can be performed. One of these options, as described there, is the HPLC variant. In this article, we will talk about how it is performed, what it is used for and what makes it different from normal liquid chromatography.

A new study in Cancer Causes and Control suggests a link between eating fish and skin cancer. However, Harvard Medical School warns that it’s too soon to make definitive conclusions about the relationship between fish in our diets and melanoma.

A link between noisy road traffic with air pollutant and an increased chance of hypertension — a top risk factor for heart attack and stroke — has been identified by University of the West of Scotland (UWS) researchers.

Tosoh’s 2.5D Cell Culture System is capable of simplifying the culturing of large quantities of uniformly sized cell masses by making use of an adhesion area to which only uniform spherical cells attach. The system proves beneficial for the purpose of drug discovery as well as regenerative medicine.

Numerous plastics are principally biodegradable, but are only degraded very slowly in the open air, wastewater, or composting plants. Known enzymes with the ability to degrade plastics could solve this problem. To do so, however, they must be able to withstand high temperatures.

A new study from the University of Eastern Finland shows that upon attack by bark-feeding weevils, conifers release substantial quantities of volatile organic compounds that provide important cues to neighbouring seedlings.

Biocrusts play a crucial role in maintaining soil health and ecosystem sustainability, but they are currently under assault. Now, Ferran Garcia-Pichel and his student at Arizona State University propose an innovative approach to restoring healthy biocrusts.
