Researchers delayed signs of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in rodents by injecting them with a second-generation drug designed to silence the gene, superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1). The results suggest the newer version of the drug may be effective at treating an inherited form of the disease caused by mutations in […]

A recent study has revealed that fish parents ‘predict’ a beneficial environment for their offspring with populations ‘adjusting’ spawning time so that the young can meet their prey.
Researchers developed a technique for coating Zinc related oxide (ZnOx, ZnOHx) simply by depositing the films in a solution process using the Metal Organic Decomposition method at ambient temperature and pressure without heating. They also demonstrated that their thin films produced by this technique were useful as buffer layers for […]
Researchers have shown how long-term weather patterns affect wind and solar renewable energy technologies across Europe. The work suggests that despite the unpredictable nature of wind and solar energy, the European power system can comfortably generate at least 35 percent of its electricity using these renewables alone without major impacts […]
To make qubits for quantum computers less susceptible to noise, the spin of an electron or some other particle is preferentially used. Researchers have now developed a method that makes it possible to couple such a spin qubit strongly to microwave photons.
New research shows that tropical forest canopies are warming significantly faster than air temperatures. That could mean major consequences for overall forest health.
