Researchers are starting to reveal the science of red sprites. No, not the supernatural spirits that flit through fairytales, but the bursts of rare red lightning that flicker and flash
The European Space Agency’s Euclid telescope has just magnified our view of the universe with the release of its first wave of survey data, capturing hundreds of thousands of galaxies
There’s some good news and bad news about treating back pain. The good news is research has identified what actually works. The bad news is, it’s not very much. Only
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Volume 122, Issue 11, March 2025. SignificanceBiological systems are constantly in motion; therefore, describing the large-scale rearrangements of biological macromolecules is crucial to
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Volume 122, Issue 11, March 2025. SignificanceThe interactions between the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and hippocampus are crucial for memory formation and retrieval.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Volume 122, Issue 11, March 2025. SignificanceIn the persistently nutrient-stressed open ocean, diverse microbes compete for scarce resources. We hypothesized that direct competition
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Volume 122, Issue 11, March 2025. SignificancePoverty-driven deforestation has raised widespread concerns globally. This study deepens scientific understanding of how structured resettlement programs
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Volume 122, Issue 11, March 2025. SignificanceBiological and synthetic self-propelled entities, such as cultured cells, swimming bacteria, and active colloids, often exhibit complex
Memory engrams are formed through experience-dependent plasticity of neural circuits, but their detailed architectures remain unresolved. Using three-dimensional electron microscopy, we performed nanoscale reconstructions of the hippocampal CA3-CA1 …Read More
