Pepper, the pet cat who made headlines last year for his role in the discovery of the first jeilongvirus found in the U.S., is at it again. This time, his hunting prowess contributed to the identification of a new strain of orthoreovirus. John Lednicky, Ph.D., Pepper’s owner and a University of Florida College of Public […]

In a groundbreaking cohort study emerging from China, researchers have explored the complex interplay between body mass index (BMI), depressive symptoms, and metabolic syndrome in adults over the age of 45. This investigation not only illuminates the intricate cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between these health parameters but also delves into the mediating influence of metabolic […]

Flood damage in Kerrville, Texas. Photo: World Central Kitchen Adapted from a press release written by Harrison Tasoff for the University of California, Santa Barbara. Rivers are Earth’s arteries. Water, sediment and nutrients self-organize into diverse, dynamic channels as they journey from the mountains to the sea. Some rivers carve out a single pathway, while […]

The acceptance by the UK marks a new phase in what is emerging as a closely observed regulatory race. With similar food safety requirements across the EU, the US, Singapore, Switzerland and the UK, the process will provide insights into which regulatory frameworks are most efficient in assessing and approving novel food technologies. Earlier this […]

People’s intuitive perception of biodiversity through visual and audio cues is remarkably accurate and aligns closely with scientific measures of biodiversity. This is according to new research published in the British Ecological Society journal, People and Nature. In a new study led by researchers at the German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research (iDiv), the Helmholtz […]

Intermediate filaments (IFs) are a key component of the cytoskeleton, essential for regulating cell mechanics, maintaining nuclear integrity, organelle positioning, and modulating cell signaling. Current insights into IF function primarily come from studies using long-term perturbations, such as protein depletion or mutation. Here, we present tools that allow rapid manipulation of vimentin IFs in the […]

Ongoing research into the effect of environmental change on the buzzing of bees reveals that high temperatures and exposure to heavy metals reduces the frequency (and audible pitch) of non-flight wing vibrations, which could have consequences on the effectiveness of bee communication and their role as pollinators. “People have been long interested in how insect […]
