Researchers at Tel Aviv University have discovered a new mechanism for communication between viruses and bacteria: just like humans with Game Theory, viruses called phages weigh all options and make an informed decision – whether it is time to exit the dormant state and attack their bacterial host

Cold still causes far more deaths than heat in India.

A new UC Riverside study casts doubt on drought as the driver of ancient Mayan civilization collapse.

In a paper published in National Science Review, dual-ligand and hard-soft-acid-base strategies were used to fabricate morphology-controllable 3D pillared-layer MOF nanocrystals (1D nanofibers, 2D nanosheets, and 3D aggregates) with stable electrochemical cycling performance by adjusting the concentration of 4,4’-bipyridine to control the direction of crystal growth.

Drugs we take like prednisone can weaken our bones and so can aging, and scientists working to prevent both have some of the first evidence that the best target may not be the logical one. They are finding that in aging bone, the mineralocorticoid receptor, better known for its role in blood pressure regulation, is a key factor in bone health
