Scientists found a tiny ocean organism doing big things. This isn't just any bacteria—it's a type of cyanobacterium called Capilliphycus salinus ALCB114379. It lives where the ocean meets land in Brazil, where tides and weather constantly change. This tough little survivor has a complete genome mapp
Ned Rozell, who spent three decades writing about Alaska’s science for the university’s forum, rode a 515‑mile bike trip from Fairbanks to Unalakleet before he retired. During the ride, he was honored with three awards: the Edith Bullock Prize from the University of Alaska Foundation, the Roger Smit
People often travel between cities for medical care, yet most studies ignore these moves. In the Pearl River Delta, doctors and patients are spread across many urban centers. Transport plans usually stay within one city’s limits, but patients cross borders for treatment. Researchers used ca
The research looks at where well‑known old homes were built in the city of Huanggang. It asks which natural features made those places good choices for famous people to live. Using a method called the Analytic Hierarchy Process, the team picked eight key land features. These include things li
Scientists studied 15 long‑term forest sites around the world, from tropical jungles to Arctic woodlands. They measured how many different tree species were present and how much organic carbon was stored in the soil, a key factor that helps slow climate change. The overall trend showed that forests
Researchers have taken a new look at a 17th‑century book about magnetism that first appeared in 1600. They didn’t just count how many copies survived; they also read the notes people wrote inside those books. By combining these two kinds of data, the team could see where readers stopped, highlighted
The experiment turned ordinary goat milk into a tasty, health‑boosting drink by blending it with blackberry pulp. Two versions were made: one simply mixed the fruit into the milk, and the other added two probiotic strains—Lactobacillus acidophilus LA‑5 and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis Bb‑1
Long distances and hot weather make pig journeys risky. When animals travel to a slaughterhouse, any death that occurs en route shows the stress they have endured. Researchers looked at many commercial trips that lasted eight hours or less to see what factors raised the chance of these deaths. Th
The goal of Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) is to stop bad chemicals from hurting people before they become a problem. Scientists use a new way of looking at all the times we might be exposed to chemicals, called the life‑course exposome. By mixing these ideas, a new workflow has been cr
Doctors often face tough choices when treating aggressive brain tumors. A recent trial looked at how well a drug called regorafenib works in newly diagnosed and recurring glioblastoma cases. Instead of traditional methods, researchers used a flexible approach where patient data influenced treatment
