Physical trading and collectible cards such as Pokémon and sports cards have become more popular since the COVID pandemic. These cards are sold in packs that contain random cards…
Researchers from the University of Alicante studied whether reading literature can help elementary school students accept LGBT people more. The study was carried out by scholars…
A leading U. S. beef industry trade association knew by 1989 that cattle contributed to global warming but focused its response on protecting consumer demand through public…
Chess Galea, a music artist, explains that she used to hide her anger because she feared being called hysterical or difficult. She says women often accept a mental load, sexism…
Biodiversity indicators can help companies make more sustainable decisions. But only 9% of the world's largest companies in sectors with a major impact on biodiversity use such…
Many insects see the world through hundreds of tiny lenses that are grouped together in a visual organ known as the compound eye. Behind each lens sits a cluster of eight…
For decades, scientists have believed that a protein called interferon tau (IFNT) is indispensable for pregnancy in cattle. Produced by the early embryo, it was thought to signal…
A study shows that when the usual winter polar winds weaken, Europe faces a higher risk of very cold temperatures. The strong westerly winds that normally form a stable ring high…
A new scientific paper in the journal Phytotaxa reports the discovery of a new species in the Victoria genus, named Victoria colombiana, the Colombian giant water lily. The…
Pollinating insects such as bees and moths find it harder to locate flowers when air pollution is high. Research from the University of Reading reviewed 22 studies and found that…
A polar vortex is said to bring heavy snow to the UK this autumn and winter, but the situation is more complex. Media reports link the weather to El Niño, yet El Niño actually…
A review in England warns that many people may be diagnosed with ADHD and autism more often than expected. Experts say the number of diagnoses has risen sharply over the past 25…
A study commissioned by the Climate Research Initiative Netherlands and led by the University of Twente examines how large‑scale carbon removal can be carried out responsibly. The…
The Copernicus Sentinel‑3C satellite, launched two weeks ago, has now returned its first images and measurements from two key instruments. This achievement confirms the satellite…
Informal food vendors are common in low‑income and middle‑income countries, where they sell items such as deep‑fried fish, vegetables, and hot meals from carts and kiosks. These…
Scientists studying a fossil near Drumheller have found an Albertosaurus skeleton that shows unusual marks on its bones. The marks could mean a smaller dinosaur ate the dead…
Research published in the International Journal of Business Innovation and Research ( IJBIR ) suggests that African economies need to move beyond fragmented development…
Scientists explain that DNA in cells is wrapped around proteins called histones to form nucleosomes, which then organize into chromatin. This chromatin structure helps pack…
A research team at Ulm University has shown that the active surface of nickel electrodes used for alkaline water electrolysis is not nickel oxyhydroxide, as previously thought…
My ancestral languages, Boarisch (Bavarian) and Schwäbisch (Swabian), are routinely described as German dialects. That might sound like a technical linguistic distinction. For me…
In a study led by Tampere University, researchers have developed a new lensless imaging method that produces precise quantitative data on living cells from a single image. The…
In high-latitude coastal areas, Arctic amplification means that temperatures are rising faster than the global average. This combination of rising temperatures and changing…
Happiness, sadness, disgust, surprise, fear, contempt and anger. These are the basic emotions traditionally associated with facial expressions described as universal. As important…
A new method created at Imperial College London can measure oxygen production in real time during solar water splitting. The test showed that electrical current does not always…
Nitrogen gas makes up most of the air, but most living things cannot use it directly. Certain microbes fix nitrogen by converting the gas into ammonia. This conversion is…
A cell sitting in fluid looks like one of the most passive things in biology. Nutrients drift toward it on the aimless currents of molecular motion, and now and then one bumps…
Norwegian prison research has long examined the pains of imprisonment, isolation, and the harm caused by prison. Recent studies suggest that to truly promote health, personal…
Predicting a system's final outcome from its initial state is the ultimate goal for many physicists. In certain complex systems, however, this goal is thwarted by chaos, where…
Molecules can be placed in a wide variety of quantum states. How can these states be distinguished in measurements when theoretical models are unreliable? Which excitation process…
Unethical behavior inside organizations is often less sudden than companies assume. New research from ESMT Berlin shows how employees can collectively drift into misconduct as…
Researchers at KAIST studied how tiny regions in a ferroelectric material change when memory is written. They found that new polarization directions form in small areas while…
A substantial loss of plant diversity could mean that grasslands worldwide, including meadows and pastures, would absorb around 15% less CO₂ through photosynthesis by midcentury…
Researchers worldwide studied how children learn to describe what story characters think, feel, and see. They collected 5,507 picture stories from 2,763 children aged 3 to 13. The…
Scientists at LMU's Gene Center, the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry, and Helmholtz Munich have created SPARCS, a new method that uses artificial intelligence together with…
A new study presented at the 2026 European Control Conference in Reykjavík proposes a fair rule for sharing a limited resource across generations. The rule gives each generation…
Quantum technologies are seen as future key tools, but they need both scientific skill and very special lab conditions. One example is Bose–Einstein condensates, where atoms move…
From spiders spinning their webs to the manufacturing of textiles, the formation of fibers from liquids plays an important role in both nature and industry. Yet accurately…
Light sheet microscopy allows biologists to selectively light up a thin slice of a sample. This method can improve image contrast by reducing background light while remaining…
