Scientists have been testing how heat affects our hearts for years. But here's the thing: the most commonly used method might not provide much insight into what happens to the heart during heat waves.

It is a detailed view of the brain like never seen before.

Sensors attached to animals gather valuable data to track and mitigate the human influence on marine life.

In the desert areas of Namibia, Oman, and Saudi Arabia, research work has revealed unusual structures that are probably due to the activity of an unknown microbiological life form.

In the spring of 1994, David Noble rappelled down the sheer cliff of a narrow canyon, part of a tangled maze of escarpments deeply incised into the sandstone tablelands in Australia’s Wollemi National Park, some 90 miles northwest of Sydney.

The oldest ice ever extracted from Antarctica is on its way to Europe, marking a major milestone in climate science.

Cancer drugs and agrichemicals can be powerful, but toxic, tools.

As highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza continues to spread in the U.S., posing serious threats to dairy and poultry farms, both farmers and public health experts need better ways to monitor for infections, in real time, to mitigate and respond to outbreaks.

Giving a second life to construction materials after demolition, engineers at the University of São Paulo and Princeton have developed an approach for recycling cement waste into a sustainable, low-carbon alternative that is comparable in performance to the industry standard.

Researchers from Princeton and Rutgers University have used reinforcement learning, a method frequently deployed to train artificial intelligence, to show how flexible responses can substantially increase the cost-effectiveness of steps to defend cities like New York against climate change.
