A survey of 5,500 Brazilian and Italian schoolchildren aged 14-16 found that nationality, social perception of science and family income were more influential than religion. The findings are published in PLANE ONE Religion influences high school students' understanding and acceptance of evolutionary theory, but social and cultural factors such as nationality, perception of science and family income are more influential, according to a study of 5,500 Brazilian and Italian students aged [...]

One potential application: increasing the sensitivity of atomic magnetometers used to measure alpha waves emitted by the human brain. Scientists are increasingly seeking to learn more about quantum entanglement, which occurs when two or more systems are created or interact in such a way that the quantum states of one cannot be described independently of the quantum states of the others. Systems are correlated even when they are separated by great distances. Interest in the study of such [...]

Two types of adipocytes (fat cells) were infected in the laboratory: one derived from human stem cells isolated from subcutaneous tissue, and the other differentiated from stem cells taken from visceral adipose tissue. Experiments show that visceral fat – the fat around the liver, intestines and other organs that is considered a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, diabetes and high blood pressure – contributes more to severe[{” attribute=””>COVID-19 than [...]

According to new research, protein restriction is effective in the fight against obesity and diabetes. According to a study comparing the effects of protein- and calorie-restricted diets in humans, reducing protein intake may help control metabolic syndrome and some of its main symptoms, such as obesity, diabetes and high blood pressure (hypertension). The results of the study were recently published in the journal Nutrients The term “metabolic syndrome” refers to a group of [...]

A new network analysis models the cascading effects of increasing droughts on South American ecosystems. In the Amazon rainforest, for every three trees that die due to drought, a fourth tree dies, even if it is not directly affected. Simply put, this is what a recent study published in a journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences revealed. The Potsdam Institute for Climate Research team led by Nick Wanderling used network analysis to understand the complex workings of one of [...]

The new method turns methane gas into liquid methanol. A team of researchers successfully converted methane into methanol using light and diffuse transition metals such as copper in a process known as photooxidation. According to a study published in the journal Chemical communications The term bar as a unit of pressure comes from the Greek word for weight (baros). One bar equals 100,000 Pa (100 kPa), which is close to standard atmospheric pressure at sea level (101,325 Pa). The [...]

During two excavations in Zimbabwe in 2017 and 2019, a Virginia Tech graduate student discovered and excavated the fossil with the help of other paleontologists. A new early dinosaur has been discovered and named by an international team of paleontologists Virginia Institute of Technology. The skeleton was discovered by a Virginia Tech graduate student and other paleontologists during two digs in 2017 and 2019. Amazingly, most of the skeleton is still intact. Named finds of this new [...]

According to research, the amino acid taurine can be used in anti-aging therapy. Our cells produce potentially toxic byproducts known as “free radicals” when they break down the oxygen we breathe and the food we consume every day to survive. Some of these molecules have important biological functions, but when there are too many of them, the internal structures of cells can be damaged, impairing the cells’ ability to function and possibly leading to chronic disease. We call [...]
