Can coal mines be tapped for rare earth elements?
University of Utah

A team of geologists led by the University of Utah analyzed 3,500 samples taken in and around coal mines in Utah and Colorado. Their findings open the possibility that these mines could see a secondary resource stream in the form of rare earth metals used in renewable energy and numerous other high-tech applications.

Long-term ocean sampling in Rhode Island's Narragansett Bay reveals plummeting plankton levels: impact uncertain for local food web
University of Rhode Island

Digitizing decades worth of pre-computer files held in storage at the Narragansett Bay campus let oceanographers at the University of Rhode Island get a better picture of Narragansett Bay over time. URI operates the longest-running time series in Rhode Island, which now reveals that the level of phytoplankton in the bay has dropped by half in the last half century.

UC Irvine-Led Team Uncovers ‘Vigorous Melting’ at Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier
University of California, Irvine

A team of glaciologists led by researchers at the University of California, Irvine used high-resolution satellite radar data to find evidence of the intrusion of warm, high-pressure seawater many kilometers beneath the grounded ice of West Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier.

Nano Drug Accelerates Diabetic Wound Healing in Mice
Mount Sinai Health System

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have designed a regenerative medicine therapy to speed up diabetic wound repair. Using tiny fat particles loaded with genetic instructions to calm down inflammation, the treatment was shown to target problem-causing cells and reduce swelling and harmful molecules in mouse models of damaged skin. Details on their findings were published in the May 20 online issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).

Department of Energy, Office of Science

Spectroscopy allows scientists to study the structure of atoms and molecules, including the energy levels of their electrons. This research examines the potential of spectroscopy techniques that rely on quantum entanglement of these photons. These methods can reveal information about molecules not possible with traditional spectroscopy. They also reduce the damage spectroscopy causes to samples.

SEC rule change to protect angel investors reduces startup funding for new businesses
University of Iowa Tippie College of Business

An SEC rule change in 2011 intended to protect angel investors has sharply reduced start-up funding for new ventures, making it difficult for founders and entrepreneurs to get their businesses off the ground, according to a new study from the University of Iowa's Tippie College of Business.
