Science Daily- Mystery of golden ratio explainedThe golden ratio is a geometric proportion that has been theorized to be the most aesthetically pleasing to the eye and has been the root of countless mysteries over the centuries. Now, an engineer has found it to be a compelling springboard to unify vision, thought and movement under a single law of nature's design.
- New Aging Studies Improving Vaccine Efficacy For The ElderlyA new study demonstrates that immune system cells important for both pathogen resistance and vaccine efficacy live longer in older animals but because of this longevity acquire functional defects. The work may provide new targets for boosting immune system function in older individuals.
- When it comes to fish families, the bigger and bossier the betterWhen given the choice between unfamiliar social groups, cichlid fish chose groups where the members are large and dominant.
- Combination therapy with midostaurin improves survival of acute myeloid leukemia patients with FLT3 mutations, phase 1A targeted drug that is active against acute myeloid leukemia is particularly effective when teamed with chemotherapy in patients whose cancer cells harbor a key genetic mutation, according to new research.
- Quantum information: Disentangling a billion-dollar opportunityThe field of quantum information processing has come a long way in the past five years, partly thanks to new funding which has helped focus activity in this potentially lucrative field. Experts recently gathered to highlight the most recent advances and discuss what is now needed to make the most of the opportunities of quantum information processing.
- Alcohol outlets lead to specific problems among youth and young adultsAlcohol research has clearly demonstrated a connection between alcohol outlets and alcohol-related problems. A new study focuses on the effects of alcohol outlets on underage youth and young adults. Findings show that alcohol-related injuries among underage youth and young adults are shaped by the density and types of alcohol outlets in neighborhoods.
- African leaf-eating primates 'likely to be wiped out' by climate changeMonkey species will become 'increasingly at risk of extinction' because of global warming, according to new research. The study reveals that populations of monkeys and apes in Africa that depend largely on a diet of leaves may be wiped out by a rise in annual temperatures of two degrees Celsius.
- Inhibiting The Cellular Process Autophagy Makes Mice LeanerThe more brown fat cells a person has, the lower their body mass. Therefore, manipulating the development of fat cells so that they become brown fat cells rather than white fat cells might be an approach to treat obesity. Researchers have now identified a cellular process that regulates the formation of the distinct fat cell types in mice. This process is kn […]
- Your Christmas tree has seven times more DNA than you do!Take a close look at your Christmas tree -- it has seven times more genetic material (DNA) than you do! Why this is so is still largely unknown, but now the DNA of the spruce is going to be mapped by Swedish researchers.
- Physicians knowledge of childhood food allergies needs room for improvement, study showsA new study shows that pediatricians and family physicians are not confident in diagnosing or treating food allergies.
