How did the building blocks of life arrive on Earth?

The healthcare sector is heading toward a global shortage of 10 million workers. Research from Tilburg University shows how HR departments can creatively contribute to the battle for healthcare staff, and why they need to go beyond traditional methods. 'Many healthcare organizations are still looking for candidates who meet all the requirements.'

Climate change not main driver of shift in distribution of European forest plants. The movement of plant species across Europe has mainly been attributed to climate change.

Universitat de València full-time university professor Rubén Artero is leading a research that has identified a promising therapy for treating myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), based on anti-miRs. The study is being carried out by the Human Translational Genomics Group of the INCLIVA-Universitat de València Health Research Institute (Biotecmed). Myotonic dystrophy is a complex genetic disorder caused by an abnormally high number of CTG repeats (a specific type of DNA sequence) in the DMPK gene.

Astronomers have used the NASA/ESA James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to observe the 'inside-out' growth of a galaxy in the early universe, only 700 million years after the Big Bang.

A single dose of typhoid conjugate vaccine (TCV) offers safe, effective protection against typhoid two years after vaccination in all children, and sustained protection for older children at three to five years post immunisation, according to a report by researchers at the Oxford Vaccine Group and the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh (icddr,b) . But it also shows a decline in protection at the later timepoints among children vaccinated at younger ages.

Joint discovery by an Armenian-German team in the ancient city of Artaxata. Archaeologists from the National Academy of Sciences of Armenia and the University of Münster have discovered the remains of a previously unknown early Christian church in the ancient city of Artaxata.

The protein GBP1 is a vital component of our body's natural defence against pathogens. This substance fights against bacteria and parasites by enveloping them in a protein coat, but how the substance manages to do this has remained unknown until now. Researchers from Delft University of Technology have now unravelled how this protein operates. This new knowledge, published in Nature Structural & Molecular Biology

A new study published in Nature Geoscience by an international team of scientists provides new insights into the natural mechanisms behind century-scale increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), known as CO₂ jumps.

An international team of researchers with significant involvement from the Department of Neurosurgery at Vienna General Hospital and MedUni Vienna has made significant progress in the visualisation of difficult-to-detect brain tumours during surgery.
