Now, a study suggests that being around 'man's ... Dec. 18, 2019 An international team of researchers has determined the age of the last known settlement of the species Homo erectus, one of modern humans' direct .... Dec. 18, 2019 Most of today's solar panels capture sunlight and convert it to electricity only from the side facing the sky. If the dark underside of a solar panel could also convert sunlight reflected off the ground, even more electricity might ... Dec. 18, 2019 Research finds that a sizeable amount of domestication-related changes in rice reflects selection on traits that are determined by a portion of the genome that does not ... Dec. 18, 2019 Researchers have found a way to increase production of proteins in bacteria up to a thousandfold, a discovery that could aid production of proteins used in the medical, food, agriculture, chemical and other ... Dec. 18, 2019 Currently, the detection of food poison outbreaks caused by bacteria takes a long time and is expensive, but this does not have to be the case in the future. Researchers have found a method for the precise identification of bacteria in just a few hours on a mobile-phone-sized device that costs about 200 times less than alternative ... Dec. 18, 2019 New experiments with magnetically doped topological insulators at BESSY II have revealed possible ways of lossless signal transmission that involve a surprising self-organizational phenomenon. In the future, it might be possible to develop materials that display this phenomenon at room temperature and can be used as processing units in a quantum ... Dec. 18, 2019 Researchers have developed an ultra-light robotic insect that uses its soft artificial muscles to move at 3 cm per second across different types of terrain. It can be folded or crushed and yet continue to ... Dec. 18, 2019 Meerkat clans perform a 'war dance' to frighten opponents and protect their territory, according to a new ... Dec. 18, 2019 Alone, as a pair or in groups - the diversity in social systems of primates is interesting because it may also provide insights into human social life. Biologists investigated how different primate societies evolved. Their reconstructions showed that the evolution from a solitary way of life to group living usually occurred via pair ... Dec. 18, 2019 Scientists have captured the first images of a new gene editing tool that could improve upon existing CRISPR-based ... Dec. 18, 2019 Estimates used by climate scientists to predict the rate at which the world's ice sheets will melt are still uncertain despite advancements in technology, new research ... Dec. 18, 2019 A new study reports the 409-megabase genome sequence of the blue-petal water lily (Nymphaea colorata). The conclusion of the 47 coauthors is that although a rose is a rose, most flowering plants may owe their success, including employing floral scent for attracting pollinators, in part to the genetic innovations observed in the delicate water ... --- up 2 weeks, 5 days, 3 hours, 23 minutes * Origin: -=> Castle Rock BBS <=- Now Husky HPT Powered!
