A joint team, including WHOI researchers, recently mobilized to investigate the real-time impacts of storm surge and waves from Hurricanes Helene and Milton.
This paper reviews the Sino-US trade war, analyzing its background, evolution, and economic consequences on both countries and the global economy. It also explores the reshaping of supply chains and the interplay between trade and industrial policies. Despite significant welfare losses, the trade war has had little effect on employment and failed to address trade imbalances or bring manufacturing jobs back to the US, offering a new perspective on the complexity of international trade conflicts.
Debate continues to swirl nationally on the fate of a practice born of an 86-year-old federal statute allowing companies to pay workers with disabilities subminimum wages: anything below the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour, but for some roles as little as 25-cents-per-hour. Those in favor of repealing this statute highlight assumptions about reduced productivity along with the unfairness of this wage level—often used elsewhere to pay, for example, food service workers who typically make additional wages in tips. Those against repeal have voiced concerns that, without subminimum wage laws, employment opportunities for workers with disabilities may dwindle.
The researchers verified that a LFMF promoted the inward absorption of iron ions and inhibited iron ion excretion, resulting in an elevated iron ion concentration within the cell. This, in turn, stimulated carotenoid synthesis by R. mucilaginosa.
Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital identified a link between glutamine metabolism and red blood cell maturation, showing how disruption of the process can drive disease.
The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) is honored to participate in 2024 CCHIO. NCCN has taken numerous strides in recent years to increase the global accessibility and relevance of NCCN Guidelines as a tool for helping people with cancer to live better lives, including multiple collaborations with leading oncology groups in China.
New research shows that Antarctic blue whales are likely a single population, rather than several isolated populations -- information that will help conservationists as the whales, the world's largest animal, try to recover from historic lows due to 20th century whaling.
