Two new studies provide more evidence that the coronavirus pandemic originated in a Wuhan, China market where live animals were sold – further bolstering the theory that the virus emerged in the wild rather than escaping from a Chinese lab.

Here, wolfie, wolfie, wolfie! Like dogs, wolves recognize and respond to the voices of familiar humans more than strangers, according to a study that has implications both for the story of canine domestication and our broader understanding of the natural world.

A new theory suggests that successful long-term human habitation in deep space requires a self-restoring, Earth-like ecosystem to sustain technology, infrastructure, and society. Crucial elements include replicating Earth's 1G of gravity and maintaining a dependable oxygen supply, water availability, waste management, and a functioning agriculture system, all of which necessitate substantial energy likely greater than our current capabilities.

Is it possible for humans to survive long-term in deep space?

an ecosystem predicted to collapse in the 2090s owing to the creeping rise of a single source of stress, such as global temperatures, could, in a worst-case scenario, collapse in the 2030s once we factor in other issues like extreme rainfall, pollution, or a sudden spike in natural resource use.

There is no way to restore collapsed ecosystems within any reasonable timeframe. There are no ecological bailouts. In the financial vernacular, we will just have to take the hit.

Sangeetha Abdu Jyothi, a computer science expert at the University of California, Irvine, posited in a 2021 study that there is a 1.6 percent to 12 percent chance of such a months-long "catastrophic" internet disruption occurring within the next decade.

Findings may offer a road map for the next generation of therapies for androgenetic alopecia. Researchers have discovered that senescent pigment cells in skin moles can stimulate robust hair growth, challenging the belief that these cells impede regeneration. The study showed that molecules osteopo

Researchers have discovered a foreign microbe so deadly it's considered a bioterrorism agent growing wild in the U.S. ‒ specifically in states along the Gulf of Mexico.

That much we know for sure. Yet a person innocently Googling "Burkholderia pseudomallei," the bug's scientific name, and "Gulf of Mexico" could sure come away with the wrong impression ‒ namely that the stuff is floating around out there and anyone who swallows or even breathes it in has a 50/50 chance of dying from it.

Not so fast. Yes, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has warned about it. Yes, researchers have found it in Mississippi and Texas, but in fresh water and soil. Yes, they're concerned about it spreading. Yes, it can be deadly, but to immunocompromised people ‒ most healthy folks who get it shake it off without missing a beat.

How the health community deals with diabetes in the next two decades will shape population health and life expectancy for the next 80 years. The world has failed to understand the social nature of diabetes and underestimated the true scale and threat the disease poses.

Three approaches that aim to cut the harms of agriculture — land sharing, rewilding and organic farming — risk driving up food imports and causing environmental damage overseas. An alternative approach is both effective and cheaper.

Scientists have long wondered how volcanoes formed in central Anatolia despite being far from tectonic plate borders—now they've found evidence of a hot plume of magma flowing from East Africa.

Earth's thermosphere recently hit a near 20-year temperature peak after soaking up energy from geomagnetic storms that bashed Earth this year. The temperature in the second-highest layer of the atmosphere will likely continue to climb over the next few years as the sun's activity ramps up, which could impact Earth-orbiting satellites, experts warn.

The thermosphere extends from the top of the mesosphere, at around 53 miles (85 kilometers) above ground, to the bottom of the exosphere, which begins at around 372 miles (600 km) above the ground, according to NASA. Beyond the exosphere is outer space.

Women in the History of Science brings together primary sources that highlight women’s involvement in scientific knowledge production around the world. Drawing on texts, images and objects, each primary source is accompanied by an explanatory text, questions to prompt discussion, and a bibliography to aid further research. Arranged by time period, covering 1200 BCE to the twenty-first century, and across 12 inclusive and far-reaching themes, this book is an invaluable companion to students and lecturers alike in exploring women’s history in the fields of science, technology, mathematics, medicine and culture.While women are too often excluded from traditional narratives of the history of science, this book centres on the voices and experiences of women across a range of domains of knowledge. By questioning our understanding of what science is, where it happens, and who produces scientific knowledge, this book is an aid to liberating the curriculum within schools and universities.
