A four-year $1.2 million grant funded by the National Institutes of Health is aimed at helping WSU researchers stop viruses before they cause infections in their hosts.

New research shows that wildfires can leave behind concerning levels of the carcinogenic chemicals known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). But researchers also looked at ways that homeowners can clean their properties after wildfires to substantially reduce the risk presented by PAHs.

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have become essential for energy storage systems.

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have become essential for energy storage systems. However, limited availability of lithium has raised concerns about the sustainability of LIBs. In a new study, scientists from Dongguk University reviewed the recent advances in sodium-ion battery technology, a potential alternative to LIBs.

This session will feature fresh shopper insights into hair wellness, as well as insights from one of the hottest brands of the last few years.

Prof Kasim is taking over from Prof. Muhammad Dauda, also a staff of ABU who had just finished serving his five-year tenure at AFIT.

We all know to wash our clothes after sitting at a campfire to get rid of that clinging smell of smoke. But cleaning our homes after wildfire smoke has moved through the area isn’t as commonly taught—and according to a new study, it’s a necessary habit to keep harmful chemicals from hanging around.

A new study from Portland State University says chemicals from smoke were found on everyday items like drinking glasses and cotton clothing.

The Professor Dr. Karl-Heinrich Heitfeld Foundation annually honors Master's graduates and doctoral candidates from the Faculty of Georesources and Materials Engineering at RWTH Aachen University for outstanding achievements. The foundation was estab
