By bridging a knowledge gap in atomic-scale heat motion, researchers could advance an emerging solid-state cooling technology.

Penn State researchers developed a new soft and stretchable material that can be 3D-printed. The material can be used to fabricate wearable devices, such a sensor that can be worn on a finger.

A new model developed by researchers could help inform guidelines and improve evidence-based advice on the risks and benefits of fish consumption, especially during pregnancy.

A new study has shown how zinc plays a pivotal role in the plant response to abiotic stress, a discovery that could help researchers boost legume yields.

Phytochemical diversity and herbivory are higher in tropical rainforests compared to subalpine forests, a new study finds.

Asthma and symptoms of bronchitis in youth do not fully account for the association in a study that underlines the need to reduce pollution according to scientists at the Keck School of Medicine of USC.

According to research, bird flu in unpasteurized milk is stable on metal and rubber components of commercial milking equipment for at least one hour, increasing its potential to infect people and other animals.

The high temperatures required to synthesize electronic materials make it challenging to process such materials directly on flexible or stretchable substrates. A newly developed technique allows for the transfer of electronic materials without damage.

Scientists describe three new, but long-extinct, walnut species on an island above the Arctic Circle. The fossils were discovered further north than any known walnut species, living or extinct.

Ruddlesden-Popper compounds are a class of materials with a special layered structure that makes them interesting for many applications. Researchers have now developed a pathway that has enabled them to manufacture nitride materials that crystallize in the Ruddlesden-Popper structural type.
