Lifesaver for wild bees: the importance of quarries

Scientists at the University of Würzburg and the German national metrology institute (PTB) have carried out an experiment that realizes a new kind of quantum standard of resistance. It's based on the Quantum Anomalous Hall Effect.

Key Takeaways. Experts estimate there are hundreds of thousands of oil and gas wells in the United States that are not formally documented or owned. Undocumented oil and gas wells can potentially leak chemicals into the water and air, including methane, a powerful greenhouse gas.

International research co-led by Professor Fotini Christia finds an approach lauded in the US works differently in other regions.

Researchers uncover a 'chemical metronome' in the brain, which helps to synchronise the master clock telling us when it's time to sleeep.

A team of astronomers has identified a potential new mechanism for bringing water to Earth, offering a promising departure from previous theories. Based on numerous observations of the Solar System, as well as observations of extrasolar debris disks by the ALMA radio telescope, the results are published in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics .

Most young people who were confirmed to have long Covid three months after a positive PCR test had recovered within 24 months, finds a new study led by UCL researchers.

Researchers have uncovered a serious side effect of using the CRISPR-Cas gene scissors. A molecule designed to make the process more efficient destroys parts of the genome.

Researchers propose a simple fix to an existing technique that could help artists, designers, and engineers create better 3D models.

A study by the University of Bonn and the CABI Centre in Kenya shows that milk, eggs and fish are good for child development.

Understanding how proteins interact is essential to decoding cellular processes and communication. In a groundbreaking study, researchers at the Friedrich Miescher Institute (FMI) have explored how every possible mutation in a protein affects its ability to bind with its partners, shedding light on how mutations influence cellular functions and the evolution of proteins.
