Research led by the University of Washington used computer models to pinpoint varieties of corn that will be best adapted to produce high yields in future U.S. climates.
A new facility will give researchers from Colorado and across the country a space to think up and design devices that tap into the world of atoms and even smaller things—potentially leading to new sensors, ultra-fast computer chips and more.
Bolstered by $6.3 million raised in donations, the Rutgers Board of Governors today approved the establishment of the William Hait Endowed Directorship at Rutgers Cancer Institute. Moving forward, the director of Rutgers Cancer Institute will be known as the William Hait Director.

A doença afeta pessoas oriundas da África, das regiões de língua espanhola no Hemisfério Ocidental, Arábia Saudita, Índia e dos países mediterrânicos. Nos EUA, a anemia falciforme é mais comum na comunidade afro-americana.
Argonne scientists have used isoporous membranes — membranes with pores of equal size and shape — and recirculation to create separations at the nanoscale that overcome previous limitations.
The American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) announced today that following a nationwide search, Vivek S. Kavadi, MD, MBA, FASTRO will become CEO of the Society effective November 1, 2024.
The NGC 2419 globular cluster contains potassium and magnesium in ratios not found in other, similar globular clusters. Scientists have so far been unable to find the source for this unexpected pattern. However, previous uncertainties in the potassium-hydrogen fusion reactions hindered the predictions of stellar models.
Today, UWF celebrated the planting of a “Moon Tree” seedling that flew around the moon on NASA’s Artemis 1 mission in 2022. UWF was selected from hundreds of organizations that applied to receive a seedling.
Insecticide use is the single largest factor contributing to a decline in total butterfly abundance and species diversity in the Midwest, according to a newly released study published by the journal PLOS ONE from Michigan State University.

Patients with pancreatic cancer who received chemotherapy both before and after surgery experienced longer survival rates than would be expected from surgery followed by chemotherapy, according to a new study from researchers at Yale Cancer Center (YCC) and Yale School of Medicine. The study, published June 20 in JAMA Oncology, included patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), which accounts for 90% of pancreatic cancers.
In 2003, Anne Nielsen became the first doctoral student in the U.S. to study the brown marmorated stink bug, which was beginning its ascendancy as an invasive species notoriously damaging to crops. Working with her mentor, Rutgers entomologist George Hamilton, Nielsen traced the stink bug’s life cycle and origins. By the time the stink bug populations exploded in 2009-2010, Nielsen and Hamilton were in a unique position to advise farmers on countermeasures.
An innovative collaboration merges Iowa State University’s research and 3D-printing facilities with a private design firm’s digital tools and vision to create an outdoor seating space to be installed this summer at the new Rudd Public Library. The old Rudd library was destroyed by a tornado in December 2021.
Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital found that, with early screening, they could detect new cancers in pediatric patients with an underlying genetic predisposition at their most treatable stages.
