A UCL-led research team has, for the first time, identified specific regions of chromosome 21, which cause memory and decision-making problems in mice with Down syndrome, a finding that provides valuable new insight into the condition in humans. (more…)
Forschende untersuchen, wie sich das Verhalten der Wildtiere durch den Einfluss von Luchsen und Menschen verändert
„Der Mensch kann das Verhalten von Wildtieren und sogar deren Tag-und-Nachtrhythmus stark beeinflussen“, sagt Naturschutzbiologe Privatdozent Dr. Marco Heurich von der Universität Freiburg. (more…)
For many, a hobby is just that — something enjoyable to pass away the time. But for others, it presents an opportunity to launch a business, turn a profit, and essentially get paid for doing something you love. (more…)
It may seem pretty easy to maintain oral health. Brush your teeth twice a day and visit your dentist. Simple, right? However, for women, oral health is way more complicated than men’s.

What we mean is that some life stages require extra care. (more…)
There are heaps of symptoms of air conditioners on wellbeing not withstanding about the earth. Most of the symptoms are on the grounds that people don’t see how to utilize or keep them at the primary area. What precisely are the symptoms? Let us talk about them. (more…)
A new theory describes what all animals have in common and allows predictions for organisms that might not be well understood by science.
Research led by the University of Arizona has resulted in a set of equations that describes and predicts commonalities across life despite its enormous diversity. (more…)
ForscherInnen zeigen Weg von Zearalenon durch den Mutterleib mittels neuer Technologie
Frühkindliches Leben im Mutterleib gilt als besonders empfindlich gegenüber Umweltschadstoffen. Ein Team um Benedikt Warth von der Fakultät für Chemie der Universität Wien und Tina Bürki vom Schweizer Materialforschungsinstitut Empa konnte nun erstmals nachweisen, wie sich das verbreitete Lebensmittelöstrogen Zearalenon im Mutterleib verbreitet. Mittels einer neuen analytischen Methode zeigte sich, dass das Fremdöstrogen die Plazenta durchwandern kann und zu bedenklichen Stoffwechselprodukten umgewandelt wird. Die Studie ist aktuell in der Fachzeitschrift “Environmental Health Perspectives” erschienen.

The first time people don the new HoloLens 2 on their heads, the device automatically gets to know them: It measures everything from the precise shape of their hands to the exact distance between their eyes.
The artificial intelligence research and development that enabled those capabilities “was astonishingly complicated” but essential to making the experience of using the device “instinctual,” said Jamie Shotton, a partner scientist who leads the HoloLens science team in Cambridge, United Kingdom.
