Microbes are known to affect digestion, mood and overall health, and now Princeton researchers have shown that a shift in the microbiome is linked to cancer — at least in a threatened subspecies of foxes […]

Experiences early in life have an impact on the brain’s biological and functional development, shows a new study by a team of neuroscientists at NYU. In general, very little is known about the mechanisms that […]

Atmospheric nitrogen is not directly usable by most living things. In nature, specialized microbes in soils and bodies of water convert nitrogen into ammonia — a crucial form of nitrogen that life can easily access […]

Researchers from University of Rochester show that small eye movements, humans aren’t even aware of making, play a large role in humans’ visual acuity. Unlike a stationary camera that takes a fixed photograph of the […]

A team of scientists from NYU has observed, for the first time, the presence of warm water at a vital point underneath a glacier in Antarctica—an alarming discovery that points to the cause behind the […]

A new analysis by Princeton researchers explains why the global warming trend is likely to continue. Both the higher moisture content of warmer air and storms’ increasing wind speeds conspire to produce wetter storms. The […]

A professor at Cornell University, suggests that opening more grocery stores is a solution to reduce food waste’s environmental impact. She said, “The more stores you have, the lower food waste is going to be, […]

The discovery by Princeton researchers solves a longstanding problem of scale, where light’s behavior when interacting with tiny objects violates well-established physical constraints observed at larger scales. The new rules, published in Physical Review Letters […]
