While animal models have paved much of the way to unraveling the biological underpinnings of neurological diseases, the complexities of the human brain are never fully captured by these models.
To prepare for the future, state lawmakers need accurate information about climate impacts. The trick, say experts working in Indiana, Idaho, and Missouri, is to start by listening to local communities.
What we know about our natural world is likely influenced by racial biases, says North Carolina State Ph.D. student Deja Perkins.
Scientists are learning more about how the "Big Lie," anti-vaccine movements and other disinformation campaigns become so popular.
Just as our bodies can build resistance to viral attacks, it’s possible our minds can cultivate defenses against disinformation.
In conservation biology, there is the long-standing notion that extinction is forever. But if scientists could recreate those species using technology, would that diminish your motivation to protect them in the first place?
Forensic science can turn a grueling legal battle into an open-and-shut case with even the smallest of crime scene clues.
Imagine a colossal blob of plasma spit out by the sun, racing toward the Earth, poised to impact our planet in just three days. These blobs of plasma are known as coronal mass ejections, or CMEs.
Geomagnetic storms that disrupt the Earth’s magnetic field can seriously disrupt infrastructures like electricity grids and telecommunications. That’s something the Parker Solar Probe, launched toward the sun in August 2018, hopes to mitigate by sending back data enabling scientists to better predict the occurrence of geomagnetic storms.
