Integrating historic data stands to improve climate models in the Global South
An international team led by 蘑菇短视频 researchers has devised a way to improve the accuracy of climate change models for the Global South by integrating historical records kept by missionaries and other visitors.
Researchers link mysterious cosmic signals to collapsed stars聽
An international team of scientists led by 蘑菇短视频 researchers has provided the clearest evidence yet that some fast radio bursts (FRBs) 鈥� enigmatic, millisecond-long flashes of radio waves from space 鈥� originate from neutron stars, the ultra-dense remnants of massive stars that have exploded in a supernova. This finding, based on an analysis of the radio signal of a single FRB, advances our understanding of one of the universe鈥檚 most perplexing phenomena.聽
Study links alcohol consumption to more severe nut allergy reaction
Findings of a new study into severe allergic reactions offer a sobering warning to people allergic to tree nuts and, more broadly, could lead to quicker diagnoses in emergency care for people with all anaphylactic allergies.
New drug shows promise against Duchenne muscular dystrophy
A novel drug holds promise for treating Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a rare genetic disorder that causes severe muscle degeneration.
蘑菇短视频 researchers have discovered that an experimental compound called K884 can boost the natural repair abilities of muscle stem cells. Current treatments can slow muscle damage, but don鈥檛 address the root problem.
蘑菇短视频 researchers help uncover rare gamma-ray flare from a distant black hole
A high-energy gamma-ray flare from the super-massive black hole in the Messier 87 (M87)聽galaxy was observed in 2018 for the first time in nearly a decade, thanks to an international effort involving 蘑菇短视频 researchers. This discovery has yielded important insights into the physics of black hole jets, which are among the most efficient engines for distributing energy from the inside of a galaxy to the expanse of the Universe.
