Should farm fields be used for crops or solar? MSU research suggests both
Farmers apply nitrogen fertilizers to crops to boost yields, feeding more people and livestock. But when thereâs more fertilizer than the crop can take up, some of the excess can be converted into gaseous forms, including nitrous oxide, a greenhouse gas that traps nearly 300 times as much heat in the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. About 70% of human-caused nitrous oxide comes from agricultural soils, so itâs vital to find ways to curb those emissions.
The University of West Florida placed second in the 2024 CAE-CD Community Outreach Award Competition, which is given by the National Centers of Academic Excellence in Cybersecurity Community to a CAE-Cyber Defense designated institution.
Researchers at Shanghai Jiao Tong University have developed CHASER, a blockchain-based incentive system that transforms mobile crowdsensing by leveraging automated smart contracts and advanced encryption to deliver fair compensation, robust data security, and high efficiency, dramatically boosting user participation and reliability.
Researchers examined teeth and skulls of 99 extinct crocodylomorph species and 20 living crocodylian species to reconstruct the dietary ecology of crocodylomorphs to identify characteristics that helped some groups persist through two mass extinctions.
New research debuts a powerful remote-sensing dataset that for the first time, informs the timing and magnitude of dust deposition and impacts on snowmelt rates across the Colorado Basin, in real time. The studyâs insights could improve forecasting and water allocation for a system under extreme pressure from changing climate and populations.
MSU to create first-of-its-kind database for analyzing human remains
UNLV-led study in Nature Neuroscience expands our understanding of the disease linked with autism, opening possible new diagnostic and preventative approaches.
Capitalizing on the flexibility of tiny cells inside the bodyâs smallest blood vessels may be a powerful spinal cord repair strategy, new research suggests.
Investigators from the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center will be involved in more than four dozen sessions at the annual meeting of the American Urological Association from April 26 to 29.
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.

The pathogen that causes tuberculosis is deadly in part because of its complex outer envelope, which helps it evade immune responses of infected hosts. In an ACS Infectious Diseases paper, researchers developed a chemical probe to study a key component of this envelope. Their results provide a step toward finding new ways of inactivating the bacterium.
Researchers in ACSâ Environmental Science & Technology demonstrate that an artificial intelligence (AI)-based monitoring system combined with a computer model can link the exposure of neonicotinoid pesticides on individual honeybees to the health of the whole colony.
A team of researchers from the University of Chicago, in collaboration with researchers from the University of Pittsburgh, has identified a novel oncometabolite that accumulates in tumors and impairs immune cells' ability to fight cancer.
Seagrass meadows are critical marine ecosystems, acting as carbon sinks and providing habitats for diverse marine species. However, they face increasing threats from climate change and human activities. Monitoring these ecosystems has proven difficult due to their fluctuating nature and the challenge of differentiating them from similar coastal vegetation like mangroves and salt marshes.
