Over the past ten years, T cell immunotherapy has emerged as one of the most promising developments in cancer treatment. These therapies work by training a patient’s own immune system to detect and destroy dangerous cells. Despite their success, scientists have struggled to fully explain how these treatments function at a molecular level. This lack … Read more

A new study published on Dec. 16 in Environmental Science & Technology Letters reports that some firefighter protective gear contains brominated flame retardants, chemicals that may pose health risks to firefighters. The research is the first U.S. study to formally examine and document the use of brominated flame retardants in firefighter turnout gear, which is … Read more

Researchers led by Félix Viana, co-director of the Sensory Transduction and Nociception laboratory at the Institute for Neurosciences (IN), have discovered that the body does not sense cold in a single, uniform way. Instead, the skin and internal organs rely on different molecular systems to detect drops in temperature. The Institute for Neurosciences (IN) is … Read more

Wildfires are not always purely destructive. In many forests, fire can clear out built up dead material, return nutrients to the soil, and help ecosystems reset. For more than 100 years, the United States has spent billions of dollars on fire suppression to protect people, homes, and sensitive environments. But putting out too many fires … Read more

The universe has delivered a rare breakthrough for researchers chasing one of the hardest effects to catch in the night sky. In findings reported in Science Advances, scientists describe the first observations of a spiraling swirl in spacetime linked to a fast spinning black hole. First evidence of black hole frame dragging This phenomenon is … Read more
