-(Natural News) Bone infection is one of the complications that may arise from surgeries prompted by automobile accidents, combat wounds or cancer treatments. To fight this type of infection, a team of researchers recently developed a new, double-duty hydrogel that simultaneously attacks bacteria and promotes bone regrowth with a single application. Researchers at the Georgia Institute […]

-(Natural News) Eggshells can be used to grow new bones for bone grafts, reported a recent study published in Biomaterials Science. A team of researchers from the University of Massachusetts Lowell (UML) developed a hydrogel scaffold containing pulverized eggshells that can support the growth of new bones. And because the material can enhance the ability of bone cells to grow and harden, […]

-(Natural News) It may not seem like it, but plants can also experience stress – oxidative stress, that is – from absorbing too much light. Now, scientists are looking into the process by which plants manage oxidative stress. Researchers from Kobe University have recently released the results of a study that looked into how plants manage oxidative stress. The […]

-(Natural News) A rare disease called limb-girdle muscular dystrophy D1 (LMGD1) makes even everyday actions such as climbing stairs, lifting objects and standing up from a chair difficult to do. Over time, it can even cause some people to lose the ability to walk. A recent study, however, shows that lithium can be a possible treatment for LMGD1. Researchers […]

-(Natural News) Anyone who’s ever worked with any form tape has most likely had trouble getting it to stick on really hot or really cold surfaces. The adhesives used in various tapes today can end up loosing their stickiness when exposed to extreme temperatures, while leaving behind an annoying residue. A recent study, however, has come […]

-(Natural News) The generation of heat, whether for home or industrial use, is one of the largest consumers of energy in modern society. This is despite the fact that a large, natural source of heat exists in the form of the Sun. However, scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a new material […]

-(Natural News) Being able to track the spread of disease outbreaks is an important step in keeping them under control. Now, a new “weapon” has entered the fray that can give public health officials and pest control companies alike a bird’s eye view of how these diseases are spreading — satellites. The National Aeronautics and […]

-(Natural News) Machine learning algorithms have been used to train artificial intelligence to do a number of amazing things, from playing chess to predicting customer preferences. Now, a group of researchers used machine learning to try to uncover hidden scientific knowledge. Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy‘s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have created a machine learning algorithm, […]

-(Natural News) After more than three decades of research, scientists — in what has been called a landmark discovery — have finally synthesized a powerful anti-cancer compound. The compound, named E7130, is a type of halichondrin, and was synthesized by a team of researchers from Harvard University in collaboration with researchers at Japanese pharmaceutical company […]

-(Natural News) Impacts from near-Earth objects (NEO) have caused some of the biggest mass extinction events ever experienced by Earth. Now, an international team has come together for an exercise to track one such NEO and assess the threat it posed while demonstrating how experts from around the world can come together in response to such […]
