Read it now Press Releases Heart rhythm disorder traced to bacterium lurking in our gums By Hiroshima University New research shows that the gum disease bacterium P. gingivalis can slip into the bloodstream and infiltrate the heart. There, it quietly drives scar tissue buildup—distorting the heart's architecture, disrupting electrical signals, and raising the risk of atrial fibrillation. Colonic Inflammation Explains Missing Link Between Obesity and β-cell Proliferation By Tohoku University How does obesity affect insulin production? Researchers at Tohoku University are shining light on new stages of the ERK pathway. Advancing Electrocatalyst Discovery Through the Lens of Data Science By Tohoku University Data science has revolutionized the hunt for high-performing catalysts, enabling scientists to quickly identify and test suitable materials. A group of researchers has recently reviewed this phenomenon in an article published in the Journal of Catalysis. Turning Non-Magnetic Materials Magnetic with Atomically Thin Films By Tohoku University The rules about magnetic order may need to be rewritten. An international team of researchers found that it was possible to turn a non-magnetic material into a magnetic material by slicing it into thin films. The Squid Galaxy's neutrino game just leveled up By Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe (Kavli IPMU) A research team including Kavli IPMU has found neutrinos from galaxy NGC 1068 might come from helium nuclei smashing into UV light and releasing neutrons that decay into neutrinos without gamma rays.
