Reconstructions of the strength of a powerful current that circles the South Pole reveal that it has undergone no long-term change in the past five million years, even though Earth cooled substantially over that time. Reconstructions of the strength of the Antarctic circumpolar current.
Clever manipulation of electrons has enabled scientists to change a key property of light emitted by a device using electrically controlled magnetization. The method could lead to stable and energy-efficient information transfer. Light controlled by electrically induced change in magnetization.
A smart adhesive patch that wicks sweat away from electronics embedded in its centre offers comfortable and reliable sensing of the wearer’s biometrics or environment without the risk of perspiration damaging the devices. A flexible liquid diode for protecting wearable devices from moisture.
A population of neurons that engages mechanisms of the innate immune system during memory formation has been uncovered in mice. Surprisingly, inflammatory signalling might pave the way for long-term memory. A pathway of the immune system has a surprising role in memory formation.
The protein TDP-43, important for biochemical process and present in all cells of our body, is a current subject of scrutiny as it can aggregate into large clumps in the brain, which could be linked to degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and other dementias. Click to read more...
