The effects of stress, depression and inadequate health care in the Los Angeles County Jail—a blanket term widely used for the county's eight facilities—build up into lethal risk, a new study led by UCLA researchers has found.
We haven't written up this one. Medical Xpress has the full story — the link below goes straight to it.
Researchers from Kiel University and Trier University have shown, for the first time, that a widely used deworming product for grazing animals doesn't just harm individual plants and insects but also alters entire networks of ecological relationships.
At the International Conference on High Energy Physics in Brazil, the BESIII Collaboration report that, after 15 years of sustained research, it identified the dominant constituent of the X(2370) as a pseudoscalar glueball with spin-parity quantum numbers of 0⁻⁺.
Quantum errors are a normal part of quantum computing because fragile physical qubits (the tiny components storing data) can easily break down because of environmental noise, like heat, stray signals or microscopic vibrations.
As NASA sets its sights on long-term exploration of the Moon and Mars, the agency is increasing the cadence of its Artemis missions. Helping bring these plans to fruition is Tom Percy, manager of systems engineering and integration for NASA’s Human Landing System Program. Percy serves as a focal point in working with providers SpaceX […]

Bideawee, a regional animal shelter, says tens of thousands of stray and feral cats live in the city’s […]
Cells are enclosed by a cell membrane, a sophisticated structure mainly made of lipids that is vital for fundamental biological processes. Artificial lipid membranes have many practical applications, such as drug delivery, but engineering their properties is a huge challenge.
