Black carbon is the soot-like byproduct of wildfires and fossil fuel consumption, able to be carried long distances via atmospheric transport. Because these black particles absorb more heat than white

Smokefree laws have had one of the biggest impacts on public health over the last decade. The drop in smokers means there are now around 8,300,000 adult smokers in Britain.

Arterial distensibility decreases with age, i.e. arteries stiffen. Arterial stiffness is associated with the endpoints of cardiovascular diseases, such as stroke, heart attack and cardiac death. Cardiovascular risk factors, such

The discovery was made by Project Associate Professor SUETSUGU Kenji (Graduate School of Science, Kobe University), Mr. HSU Tian-Chuan (Taiwan Forestry Research Institute), independent botanical researcher Mr. TOMA Tsugutaka, Associate

Just as the Earth spins around its own axis, so does an electron, in a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction. “Spintronics” is the name used to describe technologies that exploit both

Why a cancer treatment is losing its effectiveness, is a question that preoccupies every patient and their doctor. But checking in on a drug’s tumor-fighting progress is not easy —

Over the last two decades, microcontact printing, which uses a rubber stamp to immobilize the bioreceptors, has been established as a robust method to create a variety of assays with

The research team comprises team leader Professor Hanry Yu, who is a Principal Investigator at MBI and IBN; Mr Kapish Gupta, who is a graduate student at MBI and first

“Bacteria are the most abundant organisms on the planet and are often found in liquids,” said Mykhailo Potomkin, research associate in mathematics at Penn State and an author of the

Now, scientists studying the virus, led by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, have found clues to how RSV causes disease. They mapped the molecular structure

These smart windows require power for operation, so they are relatively complicated to install in existing buildings. But by applying a new solar cell technology, researchers at Princeton University have

But neural nets are black boxes. Once they’ve been trained, even their designers rarely have any idea what they’re doing — what data elements they’re processing and how. Two years
