Damage to cell membranes causes cell aging
Our cells are surrounded by a fragile membrane that’s only 5 nanometers thick, 1/20 of a soap bubble. Cells are
Air pollution hides increases in rainfall
We know that greenhouse gas emissions like carbon dioxide should increase rainfall. The emissions heat the atmosphere, causing a one-two
Cracking the code of neurodegeneration: New model identifies potential therapeutic target
Scientists at the University of Zurich have developed an innovative neural cell culture model, shedding light on the intricate mechanisms
Photon upconversion: Steering light with supercritical coupling
Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have unveiled a novel concept termed “supercritical coupling” that enables several folds
A new beginning: The search for more temperate Tatooines
Luke Skywalker’s childhood might have been slightly less harsh if he’d grown up on a more temperate Tatooine — like
Combination of group competition and repeated interactions promotes cooperation
How did cooperative behavior prevail in human evolution? Researchers from the Universities of Zurich, Lausanne and Konstanz have challenged two
Metabolic diseases may be driven by gut microbiome, loss of ovarian hormones
The gut microbiome interacts with the loss of female sex hormones to exacerbate metabolic disease, including weight gain, fat in
