Tiny Cell Messengers in Obese Individuals Accelerate Alzheimer’s Linked Plaque Buildup in the Brain
Obesity has long been acknowledged as a risk factor for a wide range of diseases, but a more precise link between obesity and Alzheimer’s disease has remained a mystery – until now.
Tree-ring Data Sheds Light on Past and Present Summer Climate Extremes
A new study led by scientists at the University of Arizona used historical tree-ring data to study a key driver for widespread, extreme summer weather events: locked jet stream wave patterns that are often preceded by winter La Niña conditions in the Pacific.
Record-Breaking 2024 Amazon Fires Drive Unprecedented Carbon Emissions and Ecosystem Degradation
A new study by researchers at the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre reveals that the Amazon rainforest has just undergone its most devastating forest fire season in over two decades, which triggered record-breaking carbon emissions and exposed the region’s growing ecological fragility despite a slowing trend in deforestation.
Concrete “Battery” Developed at MIT Now Packs 10 Times the Power
Improved carbon-cement supercapacitors could turn the concrete around us into massive energy storage systems.
New Imaging Tech Promises to Help Doctors Better Diagnose and Treat Skin Cancers
A University of Arizona research team will receive nearly $2.7 million from the NIH's Common Fund Venture Program to advance next-generation imaging technologies that allow deeper, clearer views inside the body without the need for invasive procedures.
