Do you know what's in your water? Yuxin Wang from Binghamton University, State University of New York studies contaminants in water called PFAS, more commonly known as "forever chemicals."
Lake Okeechobee faces harmful algal blooms, which thrive in warm, nutrient-rich waters. Daily vertical migration enables them to survive in turbid conditions. A new study using a physical-biogeochemical model reveals that cyanobacteria move toward the surface for sunlight in the morning, boosting growth, and are redistributed by wind and mixing at night. This daily migration, combined with temperature and wind patterns, influences bloom development, offering insights to better monitor and manage harmful algal blooms.
ATS Breathe Easy - AI in Clinical Practice: The Future is Now
ASU research demonstrates renewable technologies can reduce utility bills up to 40%. They also provide a 22% improvement in electrical system performance during mock grid outages, keeping power running a full day longer than reliance solely on backup generators.
One in ten people will have a seizure in their life, but treatments remain limited, in part due to incomplete understanding of the brain mechanisms involved. Now, research in fruit flies has uncovered a role for two specific brain proteins that are necessary during brain development to prevent seizures.
An international research collaboration led by Rutgers University-New Brunswick scientists that examined microscopic blobs of protein found in human cells has discovered that some morph from an almost honey-like substance to a hard candy-like solid. These mysterious droplets, known as biomolecular condensates, solidify when they carry a high proportion of the protein alpha-synuclein, the scientists reported in Science Advances. Clumps of alpha-synuclein are commonly found in the brain cells of people with Parkinson’s disease, a neurodegenerative brain disorder.
To mark National Volunteer Week, Cedars-Sinai is spotlighting two of the medical center’s youngest volunteers, who have a very special bond: They are identical twins.
