A new study published by the journal science describes a technique that can help practitioners discover the mechanisms of disease and how to treat them. By analyzing the interactions in the human body at a microscopic level, the research reveals how enzymes work and, based on this, allows the knowledge to be applied in the treatment of parasites and in the formulation of new drugs. new technique Innovation As a differential, the MIDAS technique has a higher sensitivity to [...]

A tiny artifact developed by Carnegie Mellon University in the US will be attached to a small lander, scheduled to be sent to the Moon next month, to function as a sort of mini-lunar museum. Called MoonArk (Ark of the Moon), the initiative is part of the project Lunar arts directed by a team of professors from the North American institute, and which will reach the Moon via a landing module developed by the private company astrobotic. The works of the Brazilian plastic artist Enio Longo, [...]

Australia, South Korea, Chile, the United States and Brazil are together in a bold project that promises to take the title of the most powerful observatory of all time from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). This is the Giant Magellanic Telescope (GMT), a megastructure that will be hosted at the Las Campanas Observatory, in the Atacama Desert, Chile. According to the Giant Magellanic Telescope Organization (GMTO), the program has just secured a new infusion of $ 205 million in funding [...]

An article published in the magazine Environmental technology describes a new low-cost anaerobic reactor model, which works with a bacterial biofilm attached to a polyurethane foam, capable of reducing the concentration of nitrogen compounds in sanitary wastewater by up to 70%. To achieve these results, the scientists perfected a mathematical model that allows them to understand and predict the nitrogen removal mechanism in the biofilm formed by bacteria that transform nitrogen [...]

A study has finally uncovered the reason for the deaths of several pigeons in São Paulo. For those who do not remember, in 2019 several birds of the species were found dead or sick and with neurological symptoms near the Zoonosis Control Center in the capital Sao Paulo.

After testing positive for Covid-19 for four months, a patient with a rare genetic disease affecting immunity was able to get rid of SARS-CoV-2 with the help of breast milk from a vaccinated woman. The patient is diagnosed with immunoderegulation syndrome, a disease that causes a reduction in the rates of some of the antibodies produced by the body. The woman is accompanied by a pediatrician and professor at the Faculty of Medical Sciences (FCM) of Unicamp, Maria Marluce dos Santos [...]
