Biology Cone Snail Venom Fuels Innovative Approach to In a groundbreaking study, scientists from the Weizmann Institute of Science have developed a novel approach to understanding molecular interactions, inspired by the intricate mechanics of cone snail toxins. This approach transcends traditional methodologies, harnessing the power of artificial intelligence to unveil the complex relationships between toxins and their biological targets. The findings, which will […] Written by Bioengineer February 17, 2025February 17, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Environmental Science Data centres worsen water crisis We’ve not had much growth here, or across much of the developed world – the US excepted – for a while, and what little we have seen has tended to arrive in forms that most of us don’t immediately see the benefits from. Data centres, and AI in general, may not mean much in the […] Written by brendan February 16, 2025February 16, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Life Sciences Dessert stomach emerges in the brain To find the cause of the “dessert stomach,” the researchers investigated the reaction of mice to sugar and found that completely satiated mice still ate desserts. Investigations of the brain showed that a group of nerve cells, the so-called POMC neurones, are responsible for this. These neurones become active as soon as the mice were […] Written by Admin February 16, 2025February 16, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Life Sciences Marine mystery solved: How anemonefish avoid stings from their sea anemone hosts The clownfish-anemone living arrangement is one of the most widely recognized examples of symbiosis. Researchers have made a breakthrough in understanding how anemonefish can live safely among sea anemones without being stung by their venomous tentacles, solving a century-long mystery. Scientists at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) and their international collaborators have […] Written by Admin February 15, 2025February 15, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Biology An S-acylated N-terminus and a conserved loop regulate the activity of the ABHD17 deacylase The dynamic addition and removal of long-chain fatty acids modulate protein function and localization. The α/β hydrolase domain–containing (ABHD) 17 enzymes remove acyl chains from membrane-localized proteins such as the oncoprotein NRas, but how the ABHD17 proteins are regulated is unknown. Here, we used cell-based studies and molecular dynamics simulations to show that ABHD17 activity […] Written by Admin February 15, 2025February 15, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Environmental Science Climate and Wildfire Researcher Caroline Juang – State of the Planet As a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at Columbia and Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Caroline Juang is currently investigating how climate affects wildfires in the western United States—prescient in the face of the recent, catastrophic Los Angeles fires.

Biotechnology BRAIN Biotech partners with PX Group in microbial gold recycling Industrial biotech specialist BRAIN Biotech and PX Group have extended its collaboration in highly effective microbial gold recovery from e-waste. Back in 2017, BRAIN Biotech developed a container-based mobile pilot plant for the bioleaching of metals dubbed BioXtractor. An advanced version called BioXtractor V2 was financed by PX Group and is now jointly owned by […] Written by Thomas Gabrielczyk February 14, 2025February 14, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Life Sciences Global warming and mass extinctions: What we can learn from plants from the last ice age Global warming is producing a rapid loss of plant species — according to estimates, roughly 600 plant species have died out since 1750 — twice the number of animal species lost. But which species are hit hardest? And how does altered biodiversity actually affect interactions between plants? Experts from the Alfred Wegener Institute have tackled […] Written by Admin February 13, 2025February 13, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Biology Study Reveals Brain Rhythms as Predictors of Seizure Risk in Alzheimer’s A groundbreaking study by a research team at UCLA Health has revealed critical insights into the connection between brain rhythms and seizure activity in Alzheimer’s disease patients. This research has identified significant changes in brain activity patterns—specifically high-frequency oscillations (HFOs)—which could serve as crucial indicators of epileptic phenomena in individuals grappling with this neurodegenerative illness.
