A new study allays fears that rerouting flights to avoid forming climate-warming contrails could result in inadvertently making climate warming worse.

SFGATE columnist Dave Tobener knows who's in charge after Sunday's bombshell report.

The therapeutic vaccine, codenamed mRNA-4359, is intended to boost people's immunity to a variety of advanced solid tumor cancers.

After analyzing the skulls and brain tissue of nine people buried in a mid-17th-century Italian hospital’s crypt, researchers at the University of Milan found that two had most likely used cocaine, offering the earliest evidence of cocaine use in Europe. What do you think?

A new study shows the mood-boosting benefits of Buckeye Paws, a therapy dog program that many health care workers say helps reduce emotional exhaustion and improve work engagement.

Researchers have developed a gel inspired by cow slime for patients suffering from disc herniation. By adding the mucin gel immediately after surgery, it is possible to create a protective barrier around the discs to prevent the immune system from attacking their nucleus pulposus. This keeps the discs intact and reduces the risk of further damage.

Researchers have developed a method to model a central theory of quantum gravity in the laboratory. Their goal: to decipher previously unexplained phenomena in the quantum world.

When surgeons perform brain surgery on people with brain tumors or epilepsy, they need to remove the tumor or abnormal tissue while preserving parts of the brain that control language and movement. A new study may better inform doctors' decisions about which brain areas to preserve, thereby improving patients' language function after brain surgery. The study expands the understanding of how language is encoded in the brain and identifies key features of critical sites in the cerebral cortex that work together to produce language.

CREME is a virtual laboratory that allows scientists to simulate specific decreases in gene activity. It offers a powerful new tool for identifying and understanding important parts of the genome. And it could one day give scientists who don't have access to real laboratories the power to make breakthrough discoveries.

Researchers have gained new insights into the mechanism behind the spatial organization of DNA within the cells of early embryos. When an embryo is first formed after fertilization, each cell has the potential to become any cell type of the body. The researchers have studied the spatial organization of DNA that is so particular to these early developmental stages.

Man, 58, suspected of plotting to shoot Republican presidential nominee at Florida golf course on Sunday appears at federal courthouse in West Palm Beach

A news study challenges the traditional approach to diagnosing neurodivergent conditions (also known as 'neurodevelopmental disorders' in the medical literature), such as autism, ADHD, and learning disabilities. The research introduces a new transdiagnostic framework that views these conditions as points on a spectrum rather than distinct categories and recognizes their frequent overlap with mental health challenges, such as depression and anxiety.

the UK has a higher amount of preventable illness compared to European countries, while the number of people reporting multiple health conditions has skyrocketed in recent years.

In the spotlight today: London-based Club member Raisa Hassan’s entire wardrobe consists of one kind of thing: dresses, dresses and more dresses! Let’s take a deep dive.

Last week, Capcom released its latest compilation of retro arcade games to massive acclaim. Marvel Vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics features seven legendary titles, including a stunningly faithful port of the arcade version of The Punisher, and the hugely influential Marvel Vs. Capcom 2. Altogether, the…

This iPad might not be the latest model these days, but it's a great starter tablet, especially when you can get it at this price.

Canopy gaps in a mixed floodplain forest have a direct effect on forest soil temperature and moisture, but only have a minor impact on soil biological activity.

Monoclonal antibodies -- treatments developed by cloning a cell that makes an antibody -- could help provide an answer to the growing problem of antimicrobial resistance, say scientists.

The Bear star, whose Taylor Swift singalong scene won hearts, shook hands with Ayo Edebiri's dad then shouted out his favorite feline.

The atmospheric lidar ATLID, the last of four instruments on board the EarthCARE satellite launched in May, has now been successfully put into operation. The mission is designed to measure clouds, aerosols and radiation more accurately than ever before.

Multiyear study finds that high levels of toxic metals in urine are linked to high blood sugar.

The National Emergency Management Agency has deployed more staff from other zonal offices to assist in the intervention activities ongoing in the flooded areas in Borno State. NEMA said staff from Yola, Gombe, Jos, and the Abuja offices have been deployed to Maiduguri because of the overwhelming situation. The NEMA spokesman, Manzo Ezekiel, who disclosed

The importance of disorder in physics is only matched by the difficulty to study it. For example, the remarkable properties of high-temperature superconductors are greatly affected by variations in the chemical composition of the solid. Techniques that enable measurements of such disorder and its impact on the electronic properties, such as scanning tunnelling microscopy, work only at very low temperatures, and are blind to these physics near the transition temperature. Now, a team of researchers... Читать дальше...

A billion-shekel aid package approved by the cabinet, based on Finance Minister Smotrich's committee recommendations, excludes non-Israeli October 7 victims. The government cites legal obstacles, but a top official disputes the claim

Scientists have discovered a new species of fish, the 'grumpy dwarfgoby'. Found among coral reefs in the Red Sea, it has large canines and a fierce expression, even though it is only 2 cm long. Its existence highlights the region's rich biodiversity, but also stresses the need for conservation efforts as climate change causes major disturbances to the reef's ecosystem.
