Researchers analysed activity in regions of brain when dogs were shown images of different facial expressionsWhile dogs are known to turn the puppy eyes on their owners, it seems our pets are keeping a close eye on us too: research has revealed dog brains can distinguish differen

Biofilms—bacterial communities encased in a sticky, polymer-rich matrix—can be difficult to treat because that matrix slows antibiotics and drug-carrying particles. With help from salt, though, Yale researchers have found a way to steer these particles into some biofilms and even

Skyrmions—essentially magnetic vortices—represent a promising approach in spintronics; in the future, they could serve as components in storage media or computers, potentially complementing established CMOS technologies. Researchers at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) ha

Verheij syndrome is a rare genetic disorder caused by the impairment of splicing, a critical process in RNA processing. Using the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans, researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Biology of Aging have demonstrated that this disruption affects met

How have selectively breeding dogs across decades and individual training shaped the way that dogs communicate? New from JNeurosci, researchers at Harvard University, led by Mélina Cordeau, sought to answer this question by examining the brain structure of 108 dogs using a noninv

Over the last decade, researchers have developed two-dimensional materials with fascinating quantum effects that could be harnessed for next-generation technologies.

From project to product—such success stories are rare in basic agricultural research. In this case, researchers at the Julius Kühn Institute (JKI) in Braunschweig discovered a new species of nodule-forming bacteria at the roots of sainfoin, which gives the forage crop a growth bo

John Meluso, assistant teaching professor in the Cornell Duffield College of Engineering's Systems Engineering Program, is the lead author of a new perspective paper discussing the history of "openness" and offering guidance on how organizations and researchers can use and manage

When the World Health Organization declared an Ebola outbreak in Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) a Public Health Emergency of International Concern in May, scientists around the world mobilized to help. Among them were researchers at Dalhousie University.

The secret ingredient for treating a rare nervous system disease could be hiding in the fridge, Swinburne researchers have discovered.

In 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court's Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision allowed states to enact laws that ban or severely restrict abortion. Four years later, a study led by Harvard Medical School researchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center shows that the

Alzheimer's disease may look similar from one person to another even when different biological processes are driving the damage, according to a new study led by researchers at the University of California, Irvine.
