A simple method of brain stimulation has been shown to change how people make decisions. These were the findings of a new study by the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU), which was published in the "Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience". The investigation used transcranial direct current stimulation, which is an established method in research and therapy.
New RNA-based active agents reliably protect plants against the Cucumber mosaic virus, the most common virus in agriculture and horticulture. They were developed by researchers at the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg. In lab experiments, almost all of the treated plants survived an infection. The study will appear in "Nucleic Acids Research".
Short snouts and a flat profile - within a span of 100 years, humans have significantly changed the shape of the skulls of German domestic pigs.

An international team of researchers reports on unique bird skull in "Palaeontologia Electronica". The flightless bird called Diatryma roamed the Geiseltal region in southern Saxony-Anhalt in Germany around 45 million years ago. The only other place that a similar skull fossil has been found is the USA.
Being more forgiving of your own shortcomings in a romantic relationship can lead to happier couples.
Special nanoparticles could one day improve modern imaging techniques. Developed by researchers at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU), the properties of these unique nanoparticles change in reaction to heat. When combined with an integrated dye, the particles may be used in photoacoustic imaging to produce high-resolution, three-dimensional internal images of the human body
The risk of developing long COVID is significantly lower following an infection with the Omicron variant than after an infection with earlier coronavirus variants. This was the finding of a study by University Medicine Halle, which was published in the 鈥淚nternational Journal of Infectious Diseases鈥�.

It might sound weird, but it's true: the steppes of Eastern Europe are home to a similar number of plant species as the regions of the Amazon rainforest.
Dominant or upright postures can help people feel - and maybe even behave - more confidently.
A new heat storage material could help to significantly improve the energy efficiency of buildings.
