The current Carbon Capture, utilization, and Storage (CCS) tax credit in the United States is unlikely to incentivize ...

Optical cavities confine light on a small region in space, which can result in a strong coupling of light with materials inside the cavity. This gi ...

Rapid pathogen detection is crucial for effective disease management, particularly in bloodstream infections. Current molecular diagnostics often require nucleic acid preamplification, adding time and ...

Classically, granites are separated into two broad categories—“I-type” vs. “S-type”—representing different igneous vs. (meta)sedimentary rock sources for melting. Their geochemistry differs for ...

Necroptosis is an inflammatory programmed cell death pathway triggered by RIPK3 activation through one of the upstream RHIM-domain-containing proteins including RIPK1, TRIF, and ZBP1. Whether ...

Our research sheds light on the fascinating molecular mechanism behind the insect green camouflage, a mystery that has intrigued scientists for over a century. By isolating and identifying a unique ...

Understanding the inheritance of bacterial metabolic activity is of high practical significance to microbial engineering and offers fundamental insights into chemical and synthetic biology. In ...

As AI tools become increasingly prevalent in workplaces, understanding the social dynamics of AI adoption is crucial. Through four experiments with over 4,400 participants, we reveal a social penalty ...

A mutation in salt-induced kinase 3 (hSIK3-N783Y) is identified in a human subject exhibiting the natural short sleep duration trait. A mouse model carrying this homologous mutation demonstrates ...

Open in Viewer A young girl takes a boat to school in Taherpur, Bangladesh, where flooding is common. Extreme weather events, fueled by climate change, have started to affect many kids’ education, ...

This study investigates the role of anion–π interactions, a type of noncovalent bonding, in synthetic polymers—a largely uninvestigated area. Inspired by mussel foot proteins, known for their strong ...

Unearthing the origins of agricultureThe transition was one of the major milestones in human evolution. “I compare agriculture to bipedalism and fire,” says geneticist Hugo Oliveira at the ...
