The East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) plays a crucial role in shaping the regional climate and ecosystem. It is a key driver of seasonal precipitation patterns that sustain agricultural productivity and water resources in ...
Globally, and especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), a significant portion of the population lacks access to essential health care services. Although there are many contributing factors that create barriers ...
When an electric current passes through some materials, it generates a voltage perpendicular to the direction in which the current is flowing and of an applied magnetic field. This physical phenomenon, known as the anomalous ...
Through its "Moon to Mars" program, NASA plans to send the first crewed missions to Mars by the end of the next decade. To fulfill this bold vision, the agency is investigating advanced technologies through numerous programs. ...
Getting therapeutic drugs past the blood-brain barrier has long been one of medicine's most difficult challenges, limiting our ability to treat conditions like Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and brain cancers. ...
Today's super-resolution microscopes have made it possible to observe the nanoscale world with unprecedented detail. However, they require fluorescent tags, which reveal structural details but provide little chemical information ...
Laser plasma acceleration is a potentially disruptive technology: It could be used to build far more compact accelerators and open up new use cases in fundamental research, industry and health. However, on the path to real-world ...
Scientists at the Terasaki Institute for Biomedical Innovation, in collaboration with the University of Maryland School of Pharmacy, have developed a new nanoparticle therapy that tackles obesity through two complementary ...
A powerful storm system that stalled over states from Texas to Ohio for several days in early April 2025 wreaked havoc across the region, with deadly tornadoes, mudslides and flooding as rivers rose. More than a foot of rain ...
The process of discovering molecules that have the properties needed to create new medicines and materials is cumbersome and expensive, consuming vast computational resources and months of human labor to narrow down the enormous ...
