Unique Cooperation between LG Energy Solution, MEET Battery Research Center and Helmholtz Institute Münster Since the middle of last year, MEET Battery Research Center at the University of Münster and Helmholtz Institute Münster (HI MS) of Forschungszentrum Jülich cooperate with LG Energy Solution (LGES), a leading international manufacturer of battery cells.
Small cell lung cancer: New therapy option being explored
Medicine & Science Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) accounts for 15% of all lung cancer cases and is still associated with a particularly high mortality rate. According to a recent multicenter study led by MedUni Vienna, SCLC can be classified into specific molecular subtypes. New research from the same international team now suggests that a novel combination drug therapy could be an effective option for patients with specific molecular backgrounds.

A collaborative study between researchers at Simon Fraser University and Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) has found that high logging intensity in the Interior watersheds of British Columbia is associated with warmer stream temperatures in salmon-bearing streams, potentially contributing to increased heat stress in salmon.
Starting life in captivity can change the wing shape of birds, hindering their chances of surviving migratory flights when they are released into the wild, new research from The Australian National University (ANU) has shown. Study author Dr Dejan Stojanovic said while captive breeding is an important conservation tool, it can lead to various physical changes in animals , including their wing shape.
Increasingly dense cell clusters in growing tumours convert blood vessels into fibre-filled channels. This makes immune cells less effective, as findings by researchers from ETH Zurich and the University of Strasbourg suggest. It was almost ten years ago that researchers first observed that tumours occurring in different cancers - including colorectal cancer, breast cancer and melanoma - exhibit channels leading from the surface to the inside of the cell cluster.
UW study investigates how ’vaccine shopping’ impacts rollout during pandemic
When COVID-19 vaccines became obtainable in the United States, the policy of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was that individuals should receive the first available vaccine. New research from the University of Washington suggests that might not have been the most effective strategy. The study , recently published online in the journal Production and Operations Management, considers whether individuals should be able to select their vaccine type.

Boosting survival of a beneficial bacterium in the human gut
Yale researchers uncovered a novel mechanism by which -good- bacteria colonize the gut. The finding could help spur the development of new probiotic therapies. The microbes that inhabit the gut are critical for human health, and understanding the factors that encourage the growth of beneficial bacterial species - known as -good- bacteria - in the gut may enable medical interventions that promote gut and overall human health.

Preterm infants do not get used to repeated pain in the way that full-term infants, children and adults do habituate to pain, finds a study led by UCL researchers. The authors of the new Current Biology paper say that if preterm infants have not yet developed the mechanism that enables people to get used to moderate pain, medical procedures in their first few weeks of life could potentially impact their development.
Underwater waves deep below the ocean's surface - some as tall as 500 metres - play an important role in how the ocean stores heat and carbon, according to new research.
West African chimpanzees in Guinea are threatened by mining. Using a novel genetic approach, researchers together with an international team have collected information on the population size and community structure of the threatened species. These data provide an important basis for assessing the impact of mining .
Under the coordination of Utrecht University, seventeen organizations will be working together over the next four years to improve detection and measurement of all major greenhouse gases in eight European countries. The new insights are vital to improve strategies for greenhouse gas mitigation, and improve the countries' emission reports requested annually by the United Nations.
Employees tend to avoid taking breaks despite high levels of stress
Employees may feel pressure to continue working to get everything done on time Heavy workloads make employees feel a greater need for a break, but new research finds they may actually discourage employees from taking breaks at work despite causing high levels of stress, fatigue, and poor performance.

Study by the University of Bonn identifies different types of so-called lysosomes "Miniature shredders" are at work in each cell, disassembling and recycling cell components that are defective or no longer required. The exact structure of these shredders differs from cell type to cell type, a study by the University of Bonn now shows.
How can people be prevented from being affected again after a stroke? In order to find new therapeutic approaches for prevention, the international CRESCENDO consortium led by the MHH is conducting research at the molecular level. In Germany, 270,000 people suffer a stroke every year. This can result in severe disabilities: Paralysis, speech disorders and problems walking.
According to a new study, bees have a map-like landscape memory and are able to fly from any location to a place indicated in their tail dance. The research team's findings, which have now been published, provide a completely new assessment of the information content of the bees' so-called tail dance.
Scientists advance dream of targeted real time treatment of hypoxic cancers
Imaging researchers have taken a major step towards their ultimate goal of identifying cancers that are starved of oxygen so that altered treatment can be used to target them more effectively. The study led by researchers from The University of Manchester, working with scientists at the Institute of Cancer Research, University College London and The University of Leeds, is published in the journal Radiotherapy and Oncology.

Researchers at the University of Tübingen have developed a new method to better study atheroscle-rosis in mice. The non-invasive imaging method helps to better understand and treat narrowing of blood vessels, a cause of heart attacks and strokes. The new approach may also significantly reduce the number of animals used in experiments compared to previous methods.
Bigger flowers, greater rewards: Plants adapt to climate disruptions to lure pollinators
There's been a well-documented shift toward earlier springtime flowering in many plants as the world warms. The trend alarms biologists because it has the potential to disrupt carefully choreographed interactions between plants and the creatures-butterflies, bees, birds, bats and others-that pollinate them.

Soil Ecosystems Under Stress
Research team led by Freie Universität Berlin professor publishes study on the human and natural stressors threatening soil ecosystems around the world By statistically analyzing data from around the world, scientists have determined that multiple natural and human stressors are reducing levels of biodiversity and soil functioning in soil ecosystems.

Honeybees Navigate Using Mental Maps
Study with new findings on the waggle dance of honeybees published under the leadership of zoologist and neurobiologist Professor Randolf Menzel of Freie Universität Berlin According to a recent study, honeybees have a map-like spatial memory of their territory and are able to fly from their starting location to any destination encoded in a waggle dance.
