Charles Oliveira is no longer the UFC lightweight champion following his submission win over Justin Gaethje, but he is the No. 1 contender for the title he lost at the beginning of Saturday’s main event. When he gets his chance to reclaim the championship, who should get the shot?

Both employers and consumers look to cut their costs when inflation spikes. That can cause trouble.

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is a federal initiative designed to help low-income Americans access more food.

There has been a profound change in our relationship with work; we must seize the opportunity to build a new work world founded on the principles of social protection and well-being. To make that happen, here are three key considerations to getting it right.

Critical systems can be crippled or fully disabled without even touching the OT network.

It's always rewarding when what started out as largely an academic endeavor turns out to impact a lot of people -- in this case women. Women suffering from endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and preeclampsia may be protected from future heart disease if they carry a specific common genetic variant on the surface of cells (insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor, or IGF1R). The research suggests new options for personalized screening and surveillance for cardiovascular disease.

I’m only gonna check off a few, tbh.

An intermediate layer consisting of a few atoms is helping to improve the transport of spin currents from one material to another. Until now, this process involves significant losses. A team reports on how this can be avoided. The researchers thus demonstrate important new insights relevant for many spintronic applications, for example energy-efficient and ultra-fast storage technologies of the future.

Neuroscientists have established the existence of a biological difference between psychopaths and non-psychopaths.

Within a social setting most people significantly overestimate the presence of a minority -- and this overestimation is made not only by the majority but also by the minority themselves, researchers have found. Moreover, they found that this illusion is likely to hamper attempts to build a more equitable society, as it leads to less support for policies aimed at promoting diversity

After the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights ruled in favor of Doğu Perinçek in May 2017, Turkey seemed to believe that the "Armenian genocide" allegations were over. What do you think?Çakmaklı: Doğu ...

According to estimates, by 2040 the level of plastic pollution could reach 80 million metric tons per year. Plastic particles have now been detected in virtually all spheres of the environment, e.g. in water bodies, the soil and the air. Via ocean currents and rivers, the tiny plastic particles can even reach the Arctic, Antarctic or ocean depths. A new overview study has now shown that wind, too, can transport these particles great distances -- and much faster than water can: in the atmosphere,... Читать дальше...

Scientists have pinpointed a possible new target for treating patients with the blood cancer juvenile myelomonocytic leukaemia (JMML), according to a new study.

To help job-seekers find the best entry-level remote opportunities, FlexJobs identified the top 10 entry-level remote jobs companies are hiring for right now.

In her memoir, Grey said Swayze didn't want to say the film's famous line, "Nobody puts Baby in a corner."

When genes mutate, this can lead to severe diseases of the human nervous system. Researchers have now used fruit flies to demonstrate how, apart from the negative effect, the mutation of a neuronal gene can have a positive effect -- namely higher IQ in humans.

A human enzyme converts chemicals produced by marine sponges and related synthetic derivatives into cell-killing compounds, shows a new study.

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. (NEWS10) - May is national mental health awareness month and, as we know, millions of Americans are struggling with mental illness every day. In fact, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, 1 in 20 adults in the U.S. experience serious mental illness each year and suicide is the second leading cause of death [...]

Ribonucleic acids (RNAs), which decode the genetic code stored in DNA and produce proteins, fold into diverse structures to govern fundamental biological processes in all life forms, including humans. Targeting disease-associated RNA structures with drug-like small molecules has been one of the gold standards for developing RNA-targeting drugs in the scientific field. Recently, a research team has developed a new type of RNA structure targeting tool to specifically recognize unusual four-strand RNA structures... Читать дальше...

In Finland, climate change is causing the pine pest Panolis flammea, or pine beauty moth, to shift its range northward 50 years ahead of predictions. Changes in both the distribution and size of the pine beauty moth population are linked to higher temperatures, a new study shows.

Researchers have mapped how the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi forms new variants that are more effective at evading the immune system and causing disease. Their findings can give rise to new methods for diagnosing, preventing and treating Chagas disease, which affects millions of people in Central and South America, causing thousands of deaths every year.
