Sugar swap simplifies production of promising targeted cancer therapies
Researchers at the University of Wisconsin–Madison have developed a simpler way to produce a fast-growing class of targeted cancer therapies, a discovery that could make the medicines easier to manufacture consistently while driving the development of new treatment options.
An open-source tool for automated consolidation of lipid data
In collaboration with the University of Vienna, the Technical University of Munich (TUM), and Heidelberg University, researchers at the TUD Dresden University of Technology have developed an innovative tool that significantly simplifies lipid research.
First supernovae may have seeded rocky planet building blocks 100 million years after the Big Bang
The building blocks of rocky planets may have begun forming just 100 million years after the Big Bang—long before the first galaxies even existed—according to new research from the University of Portsmouth. Destaque: 100 mi.
Pain isn't the point: European viper venoms may have evolved to subdue prey
For many people, the fear of venomous snakes is linked to one thing: pain.
Greener processing cuts cost of novel material for water decontamination
University of Birmingham scientists who used green chemistry to make a next-generation metal-organic framework (MOF) for capturing heavy metals from wastewater have shown that it is cheaper and more resource-efficient to produce than a similar MOF processed conventionally.
A dying star offers a rare glimpse of how the universe recycles its raw materials
Astronomers have captured an unprecedented image of a cosmic recycling project in progress—fragments of a dying star being busted up, stripped and absorbed into interstellar space.
Graphene nanowrinkles could reshape electricity in future ultrathin devices
Rice University researchers have shown that tiny wrinkles in graphene can change the material's electrical properties, providing evidence for flexoelectricity, a phenomenon in which a material generates an electric charge when it bends unevenly.
Female gut muscles reshape to meet the demands of reproduction, preclinical study suggests
Organs don't just grow in early life; they can change in response to physiological or environmental challenges in adulthood. Researchers have now identified an active role for the intestinal muscles in remodeling the gut after reproduction.
A surprising pathway that lets the striatum talk directly to the auditory cortex
For decades, neuroscientists have thought about communication between the cerebral cortex and the basal ganglia in a fairly linear way.
Key genetic differences between pediatric and adult forms of immune-mediated inflammatory diseases identified
Researchers from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) have found that pediatric-onset rheumatic and inflammatory diseases have distinct genetic architecture compared with those in adults.
Parents who run with a stroller have lower risk of overuse injury
Anyone who has run while pushing a stroller knows stroller running can feel cumbersome and hard on the body.
