Smartwatches to better understand psychiatric illnesses and their genetic basis

Study reveals: Chemical research reports often contain inaccurate measurement data. AI-powered data analysis tools have the potential to significantly improve the quality of scientific publications.

Boys exposed to violent screen content in the preschool years were more likely to become antisocial and violent themselves a decade later, in their mid-teens, a new study shows.

Researchers create dataset resource to understand plant development, resilience and biodiversity. Land plants are extremely diverse: over 400,000 species reaching every corner of the world.

A global survey spanning 68 countries reveals that public trust in scientists is still high. Led by the University of Zurich and ETH Zurich, a team of 241 researchers conducted the largest post-pandemic study of trust in science, societal expectations and public views on research priorities.

Global climate models show, how the Arctic permafrost will respond to global warming. The Arctic is heating up particularly fast as a result of global warming - with serious consequences.

Quantum chemical calculations by HU enable the development of new porous materials distinct by a high adsorption capacity for CO2.

An international team of astrophysicists has imaged a large number of exocomet belts around nearby stars, and the tiny pebbles within them.

For the first time, researchers have observed how HIV penetrates the nuclear pores to the genome of human immune cells.

A major new study by experts from The University of Manchester has found that bullying has a significant negative impact on the mental health of teenagers - particularly for boys - and has highlighted the need for more effective prevention strategies in schools.

A new research project has been launched which will lay the groundwork for future studies into the impact on children of smartphone and social media use. This is a complex and rapidly evolving issue, with both potential harms and benefits associated with smartphone use. Technology is changing by the day, and scientific evidence creation needs to evolve and innovate to keep up with new developments.

A kind of 'umbilical cord' between different quantum states can be found in some materials. Researchers at TU Wien have now shown that this 'umbilical cord' is generic to many materials.

The earth is rumbling in Iceland - again. This time it is the Bárðarbunga volcano, located in the middle of the island, that is causing concern. Nicole Richter, junior professor at the Neotectonics and Georisks department at RWTH Aachen University, explains what is happening and what effects an eruption could have.

Subtle changes in the brain, detectable through advanced imaging, blood and spinal fluid analysis, happen approximately twenty years before a clinical motor diagnosis in people with Huntington's disease, finds a new study led by UCL researchers.

Neural network models that are able to make decisions or store memories have long captured scientists' imaginations. In these models, a hallmark of the computation being performed by the network is the presence of stereotyped sequences of activity, akin to one-way paths.

How will the future of our soils - and thus also water availability - be shaped by the effects of impending climate change?
