A new study has highlighted under-prepared regions across the world most at risk of the devastating effects of scorching temperatures.

MIT engineers have designed a two-component system that can be injected into the body and help form blood clots at the sites of internal injury.

Each year approximately 10 million waterfowl fly north to their breeding grounds in the Prairie Pothole Region of North America, but the landscape that greets them has changed.
