In AVS Quantum Science, by AIP Publishing, researchers from the National Energy Technology Laboratory and the University of Kentucky deployed an algorithm to study amine reactions through quantum computing. The algorithm can be run on an existing quantum computer to find useful amine compounds for carbon capture more quickly.

New CU Boulder research finds that the presence of clouds — or lack thereof — caused by the smoke of wildfires thousands of miles away can either help protect or endanger Arctic sea ice.

Merck has heavily invested in its biosafety testing capacity at Rockville, Maryland, USA and this is claimed to be the largest investment in contract testing in Merck’s history. The move was undertaken in the background of growing demand for these services.

A study by Northwestern University has reported that three-month-old babies tend to show more negative emotions such as fear, sadness and distress when their mothers experience extreme fluctuations in stress during their pregnancy.

Atlantic cod along the coast of Norway can live two very different lives. Some of them stay close to the coast, some of them migrate north to the Barents Sea. Their genomes are extremely similar except from one region. This difference may explain why some Atlantic cod migrate to the Barents Sea.

In a new paper, scientists with Polar Bears International, the University of Washington, and the University of Wyoming have, for the first time, quantified a direct link between greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and polar bear survival.

Researchers at The University of Texas at Austin are working on two major research thrusts. The first will focus on new soft and adaptive materials and the second on the emerging field of moiré materials.

Targeting a receptor responsible for our sense of touch and temperature, which researchers have now found to be present in our colon, could provide a new avenue for treating chronic pain associated with gastrointestinal disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome.

Researchers have revealed in a new study that certain species of bacteria found in the gut maybe directly be linked to positive as well as negative emotions being experienced by women.

Researchers have revealed that this is the first study to look into the association between sugar sweetened beverage intake and chronic liver disease mortality. If the findings of the study are confirmed it could help to reduce the risks of liver disease among women.
