A pollen particle revealing the nanofoam within, or a diatom with the various geometric features inside clearly visible: Using high-energy X-rays from DESY's PETRA III synchrotron light source, a team lead by CFEL scientists Saa Bajt and Henry Chapman was able to photograph these structures
Researchers found, in the Milky Way, the yellow sun is comparatively uncommon. The vast majority of stars are far smaller, colder, and only have up to half the sun's mass. In our galaxy, countless planets orbit these familiar dwarf stars.
Researchers are increasingly using the blood-brain barrier, which lets only particular chemicals from the blood into the brain, to get medicines into the brain after a stroke.
According to a recent study, humans may have evolved a spring-like arch to aid with two-footed walking. The high arch of the foot is thought to assist us in walking by functioning as a lever that pulls the body forward, according to researchers looking into the evolution of bipedal walking.
Researchers from the Brigham and Joslin Diabetes Centre discovered that participants who were physically active in the afternoon had lower blood sugar levels than those who were most active at other times of day in an examination of the Look AHEAD project.

A team of researchers have identified new genes associated with an increased risk of a type of heart attack that primarily affects young to middle-aged women.
A team of researchers revealed that stem cells from the human stomach may be transformed into cells that produce insulin in response to rising blood sugar levels, presenting a promising strategy for treating diabetes
The suite of regulations, which have been introduced gradually since 2021, includes cybersecurity assessments of personal information and genetic data sent overseas, and restrictions on the export of biotechnology know-how in CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing technology
A new study published in the journal Child Development by researchers from Boston College in Massachusetts and the University of Queensland in Australia analyses whether four- to nine-year-old children consider their own prior behaviours while making moral judgements about others.
