UC San Diego researchers have uncovered the roots of group behavior in the brains of schooling fish. Glassfish, they found, depend on their sense of vision to coordinate social swimming behavior in schools and increase their ability to follow coordinated group movements as they mature.
Con la ayuda del telescopio WIYN de 3,5 metros ubicado en Kitt Peak, Arizona, los astrónomos lograron descubrir la órbita extrema de un exoplaneta que está camino a convertirse en un Júpiter caliente. Además de seguir una de las órbitas más alargadas de todos los exoplanetas, el cuerpo celeste órbita su estrella al revés, lo que da indicios sobre el misterio de la evolución de los Júpiter calientes.
Using the WIYN 3.5-meter telescope at the U.S. National Science Foundation Kitt Peak National Observatory, a Program of NSF NOIRLab, astronomers have discovered the extreme orbit of an exoplanet that’s on its way to becoming a hot Jupiter.
A new study of middle-age and older adults looks at sex differences in frailty levels and their link with heart health. The findings suggest that moving your body more through regular exercise and sitting less can help keep both heart disease and frailty at bay as we age.
'Twisters' draws from storm-chasing science led by Nebraska expert
The James Webb Space Telescope operates around the clock, frequently astonishing researchers with its highly detailed — and incredibly precise — infrared images and data. These wavelengths of light, which lie beyond what our eyes can see, were largely out of reach at this level of detail until Webb began taking science observations July 12, 2022.
In this episode, Dr. Robinson talked about her work on examining the abuses and discrimination in state-run reform schools, such as the Dozier School for Boys, and finding ways to honor and beautifully memorialize the victims.
Engineers at the University of California San Diego have trained a humanoid robot to perform a variety of expressive movements, from simple dance routines to gestures like waving, high-fiving and hugging, all while maintaining a steady gait on diverse terrains. This work marks a step towards building robots that perform more complex and human-like motions.
Every new parent looks forward to holding their newborn skin-to-skin, dreaming of those bonding moments when they can embrace their baby. But parents of premature babies often wait weeks or even months before they can do so.
For the first time, researchers have developed a validated tool that lets athletes predict their rate of whole-body sweat loss.
Newly identified fast-moving stars in the star cluster Omega Centauri provide solid evidence for a central black hole in the cluster. With at least 8,200 solar masses, that black hole is the best candidate for a class of black holes astronomers have long believed to exist: intermediate-mass black holes, formed in the early stages of galaxy evolution.
Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology (KICT), has developed technology for producing construction materials using in-situ resources from the moon.
Argonne environmental and computer scientists have developed a new kind of model, called a foundation model, to predict weather and eventually climate.
Researchers from the National University of Singapore conducted smell tests with caterpillars and discovered that caterpillars’ preferences for certain types of plants are determined by factors, or substances, present in their blood.
After a cold and rainy winter, it’s refreshing to plan summertime outdoor activities or a day at the beach soaking up the sun. But it’s important to remember that too much sun exposure can be harmful.
Live, virtual press briefing with Mercy Medical Center surgeon Dr. Gregory Gasbarro, to discuss the advanced new surgical technique using mixed reality to assist in the operating room.
Ever wondered why you performed worse than expected in that final university exam that you sat in a cavernous gymnasium or massive hall, despite countless hours, days and weeks of study? Now you have a genuine reason – high ceilings.
New research sheds light on how deep-sea “comb jellies” adapt and survive at extreme pressures. The work may inform what’s known about the human body — in particular, how a specific lipid called plasmalogen found in nerve cells might work in our brains.
The Curious by Nature podcast episode, “Particle Physics with a CERN Scientist,” featuring Dr. Christina Kourkoumeli, is now available on Spotify and Apple Podcast. Dr. Kourkoumeli began her career as a scientist when our understanding of atomic particles emerged.
