Every year, thousands of tons of brown algae are extracted from the seabed to obtain compounds such as alginates, a polymer composed of sugars that has...
It's a game a lot of us played as children -- and maybe even later in life: unspooling measuring tape to see how far it would...
In a massive scientific effort, hundreds of researchers have helped to map the connections between hundreds of thousands of neurons in the mouse brain and then...
Researchers have found a new role for the transcription factor (proteins that regulate the transcription, or copying, of genes). In the fruit fly, this transcription factor,...
A new study found that people with cannabis use disorder (CUD) had elevated dopamine levels in a brain region associated with psychosis.
