Stanford Researchers Have Developed A Gel-Like Fluid to Prevent Wildfires
A preventive treatment developed by Stanford researchers could greatly reduce the incidence and severity of wildfires.
Skin Cells Turned to Heart Cells Help Unravel Genetic Underpinnings of Cardiac Function
Genome-wide association studies have uncovered more than 500 genetic variants linked to heart function, everything from heart rate to irregular rhythms that can lead to stroke, heart failure or other complications.
Material for Nuclear Reactors to Become Harder
Scientists from NUST MISIS developed a unique composite material that can be used in harsh temperature conditions, such as those in nuclear reactors.
Farmed Oysters Show Resilience to Ocean Acidification
Scientists have discovered that unlike wild oysters, farmed oysters bred for fast growth and disease resistance are able to adapt their shell growth to be more resilient to ocean acidification, according to a new study published in the journal Global Change Biology.
Multifactor Models Reveal Worse Picture of Climate Change Impact on Marine Life
Rising ocean temperatures have long been linked to negative impacts for marine life, but a Florida State University team has found that the long-term outlook for many marine species is much more complex — and possibly bleaker — than scientists previously believed.
