The model identified the importance of a signaling molecule called FGFR3 and a pathway called CREB in regulating bone growth. Atomic Precision Unlocks Smarter Oxygen Reduction Catalysts By Tohoku University A single atom can make all the difference. Researchers at Tohoku University have shown that subtle changes in the nitrogen coordination around cobalt dramatically reshape oxygen reduction reaction performance, a cornerstone process for fuel cells and clean chemical production. Starving cancer: Nutrient deprivation effects on synovial sarcoma By Osaka Metropolitan University Glutamine transporter inhibition has been found to suppress cell growth CityUHK and global climate experts warn that El Niño could hammer the Hong Kong economy hard and reduce life expectancy By City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) A recent study co-led by CityUHK found that strong El Niño events cause deeper, longer-lasting harm to human health than previously understood—by slowing long-term improvements in mortality rates for many years, shortening life expectancy, and generating major economic costs. Researchers Create Distortion-Resistant Energy Materials to Improve Lithium-Ion Batteries By Tohoku University We all want cheap, long-lasting, green, and efficient energy. Researchers are helping to make this dream a reality with a new distortion-resistant material that greatly improves these aspects of a battery's cathode. Scientists create the most detailed molecular map to date of the developing Down syndrome brain By Duke-NUS Medical School Duke-NUS scientists have identified how a small number of overactive genes may drive widespread changes in brain function in Down syndrome, helping explain how an extra chromosome affects learning and memory.
