Researchers preparing slides of live bacteriophages were surprised to see them link and form naturally into three-dimensional flower shapes in reaction to contact with high-pressure carbon dioxide. The discovery is welcome news for researchers who had been trying to network phages articifially to boost their power.
New research from the University of Washington investigated responses to sweetened beverage taxes using the purchasing behavior of approximately 400 households in Seattle, San Francisco, Oakland and Philadelphia.
Survey data show immigrants are more willing to fight for United States and Canada than native-born citizens, according to an analysis led by the University of Utah.

Plants the world over are absorbing about 31% more carbon dioxide than previously thought, according to a new assessment developed by scientists.
Researchers from the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology used micro-CT scans to understand how stress impacts parachutes on the fiber-scale. This information will be used to develop better models for identifying promising parachute textile candidates.
In a new University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign study, researchers show how a simple system using woodchips and a bit of glorified sawdust --- designer biochar --- can dramatically reduce nitrogen, phosphorus, and multiple common drugs in wastewater.
Expanded treatment options, increased naloxone distribution and targeted education campaigns likely led to a 37% reduction in overdose deaths from opioids combined with stimulant drugs other than cocaine, according to the results of a large federally funded study.
University of California San Diego School of Medicine researchers find advanced AI could lead to easier, faster and more efficient hospital quality reporting.
New research led by Florida State University College of Medicine faculty quantified the association between loneliness and dementia by analyzing data from more than 600,000 people around the world — the largest study of its kind.
