For years, there has been a long-held belief that acute viral infections like Zika or COVID-19 are directly responsible for neurological damage, but researchers have now discovered that it's the immune system's response that is behind it.
A new computer program allows scientists to design synthetic DNA segments that indicate, in real time, the state of cells. It will be used to screen for anti-cancer or viral infections drugs, or to improve gene and cell-based immunotherapies.
Round 14 – the Pride Round – of the Summer Crits kicked off with perhaps the most difficult wind conditions of the season so far. A strong westerly, making its presence felt from the bottom of the track right through till well into the home straight was sure to prove a major test with splits almost an inevitability.
New study reveals how gene expression shapes the diverse smelling and tasting abilities of different fly species. Most genes are surprisingly stable, but thousands have evolved to create unique olfactory landscapes. Sex differences in sensing are widespread and involve specific cell types in key tissues. The study provides insights into the evolution of sensory systems in general, with potential implications for understanding human olfaction.
We selected the best dog food for adults, puppies, and seniors. Our picks from top brands include recipes for sensitive stomachs and large breeds.
Switching to ammonia as a marine fuel, with the goal of decarbonization, can instead create entirely new problems. This is shown in a study where researchers carried out life cycle analyses for batteries and for three electrofuels including ammonia. Eutrophication and acidification are some of the environmental problems that can be traced to the use of ammonia -- as well as emissions of laughing gas, which is a very potent greenhouse gas.
Scientists have found a way to boost ethanol production via yeast fermentation, a standard method for converting plant sugars into biofuels. Their approach relies on careful timing and a tight division of labor among synthetic yeast strains to yield more ethanol per unit of plant sugars than previous approaches have achieved.
John Mikel Obi has predicted the possible winner of the 2023 AFCON between Nigeria, South Africa, Ivory Coast, DR Congo as the four teams set to play the semi-final
DC federal Judge Tanya Chutkan briefly implied that former President Donald Trump's unresolved trial in the federal 2020 election subversion case could take place after the Republican National Convention.
Experts have discovered how to create different colors of blue cheese. After discovering how the classic blue-green veining is created, a team of experts were able to create a variety of different fungal strains that could be used to make cheese with colors ranging from white to yellow-green to red-brown-pink and light and dark blues.
Trial of Milorad Dodik for approving laws that defy the authority of the Bosnian Constitutional Court and high representative starts after multiple delays.
Former Super Eagles captain and Chelsea legend, John Mikel-Obi, has made serious revelation about AFCON final as he revealed two teams that would make it to final
New research sheds light on tiny plankton, which measure less than 0.02mm in diameter but can make up more than 70% of the plankton biomass found in the ocean.
Researchers have found that adolescents being bullied by their peers are at greater risk of the early stages of psychotic episodes and in turn experience lower levels of a key neurotransmitter in a part of the brain involved in regulating emotions. The finding suggests that this neurotransmitter may be a potential target for pharmaceutical interventions aimed at reducing the risk of psychotic disorders.
A DIY pro showed how to make a kids’ version of a charcuterie board for Valentine’s Day by only using Dollar Tree items.

The Circumpolar Current works as a regulator of the planet's climate. Its origins were thought to have caused the formation of the permanent ice in Antarctica about 34 million years ago. Now, a study has cast doubt on this theory, and has changed the understanding of how the ice sheet in Antarctic developed in the past, and what this could mean in the future as the planet's climate changes.
Father Ejike Mbakah of AMEN has sent a prophetic warning to President Bola Tinubu and politicians. He revealed how he prophesized hunger in the country two years ago
Scientists have found soundwaves from low-intensity focused ultrasound aimed at a place deep in the brain called the insula can reduce both the perception of pain and other effects of pain, such as heart rate changes.
MADRID — Spain said Monday that it would give an additional 3.5 million euros ($3.8 million) in aid to the UN Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA, which is facing a cash crunch after several nations suspended their funding.

Researchers have developed a first-of-its-kind, handheld electrochemical sensor that can accurately detect fentanyl in urine within seconds. The proof-of-concept technology can detect even trace amounts of fentanyl with 98% accuracy using a small portable device without costly and time-consuming lab analysis.
Chief economist Huw Pill says underlying price growth does not need to fall to 2% for easing of policy
Engineers have developed an ultra-sensitive sensor made with graphene that can detect extraordinarily low concentrations of lead ions in water. The device achieves a record limit of detection of lead down to the femtomolar range, which is one million times more sensitive than previous technologies.
