Researchers have suggested the addition of Category 6 to the currently open-ended Saffir-Simpson Windscale that measures hurricane severity.

Food scientists show that a standard quality test used for raw, organic milk is insufficient for distinguishing between specific groups of bacteria, suggesting that the criteria for determining milk quality at processing plants needs to be updated.

Intricate structures of microscopic metamaterials can withstand supersonic impacts and a new method can quickly test these materials.

Stanford researchers have found large thawed or close-to-thawed areas under coastal portions of the ice sheet that holds back glaciers in the Wilkes Subglacial Basin.

A 3D-printed foam material with an almost honeycomb-like structure could enhance the protection offered by football gear, bike helmets and anything that cushions fragile objects.

Researchers described the effects of chemotherapy at the single cell resolution in the bone marrow of Myelodysplastic Syndrome patients. The results help better understand which cellular populations are more sensitive to an epigenetic drug.

A University of Ottawa research team has shown that the impact of sleep apnea on the metabolism of blood lipids differs by sex, with women regulating their blood lipids better than men.

Researchers have uncovered the molecular mechanisms that underlie the memory creation process, revealing the crucial role of saturated fatty acids in the brain’s consolidation of memories.

Researchers from Queen Mary University of London have found that the molecule RvT4 enhances the body’s natural defences against atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Newly identified protein, called GRP20, involved in processing genes before they are used to code for proteins, is required for proper flower development in the model plant species Arabidopsis.
