Florida State University Assistant Professor of Physics Zhengguang Lu and fellow researchers have discovered new states of matter in graphene 鈥� a form of carbon made from a single layer of atoms 鈥� with unusual electrical properties that could make them a valuable tool for building more powerful electronics and quantum computers.
Many people around the world believe in karma 鈥� that idea that divine justice will punish people who do bad deeds and reward those who good. But that belief plays out differently for oneself versus others, according to research published by the American Psychological Association.
Salt Lake City, Utah 鈥� Glaucoma continues to be聽a public health challenge that affects around 4.22 million Americans and remains the leading cause of irreversible blindness in the U.S. Often called the 鈥渟ilent thief of sight鈥�, glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that damages the optic nerve, the vital link between the eyes and brain.
A new study shows how damaging it can be for college students in introductory STEM classes to compare how hard they work to the extent of effort put in by their peers. This focus on comparative effort was bad for both men and women in the class.
Salt Lake City, Utah 鈥� If you or someone聽you know has trouble seeing things far away, you most likely have nearsightedness, also known as myopia. It is a common eye problem which, if not managed, can lead to serious issues like glaucoma, vision loss or blindness. The number of people with myopia is on the rise, with experts predicting that nearly half the world could be myopic by 2050.
Hybridizing tropical and hardy water lilies holds great potential for creating new varieties with both cold tolerance and vibrant colors. However, prefertilization barriers between different subgenera have severely limited breeding success. A new study uncovers that the NpCIPK6鈥揘pSnRK1鈥揘pNCED2 molecular module in water lily stigmas interferes with abscisic acid (ABA) synthesis, leading to reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation that blocks incompatible pollen germination. By elucidating this cellular signaling pathway, the research provides crucial insights into overcoming reproductive barriers in water lilies and offers a conceptual framework that could enhance breeding efficiency and expand the genetic diversity of ornamental aquatic plants.
Researchers have uncovered how the gene ClGDPD1 strengthens Eureka lemon's defense against citrus yellow vein clearing virus (CYVCV). By facilitating the accumulation of sn-glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P), ClGDPD1 triggers systemic immune responses that significantly reduce viral load and disease symptoms.
Whether they鈥檙e counting on Medicare to pay for something it doesn鈥檛 currently pay for, thinking they can deal with the issue later, or thinking they won鈥檛 need it at all, a new poll reveals major gaps in knowledge and preparation regarding long-term care among Americans aged 50 and over.
An ICU at Duke University Hospital used the framework and assessment tools from AACN to regularly evaluate the health of the unit鈥檚 work environment. The results were used to develop and implement strategies to improve the work environment during a six-year period and through the COVID-19 pandemic.
