Wearable health devices, such as smartwatches, have become commonplace, enabling the continuous monitoring of physiological ...

Silicosis, a lung disease associated with the exposure to crystalline silica, has been afflicting young workers, primarily Latino immigrants who are exposed to the silica dust when workers are cutting ...

Synthetic biologists report on a new approach to attacking tumors. They have engineered tumor-colonizing bacteria (probiotics) to produce synthetic targets in tumors that direct CAR-T cells to destroy ...

A research team has developed a new RNA-based system that can detect coronavirus infection in real time inside living cells—and even trigger antiviral responses only when infection occurs.

There’s been an endless amount of reporting on style subcultures dominating the online fashion discourse. Many of these, like “Cottagecore,” “Barbiecore,” “Clowncore,” “Gorpcore,” are rooted in a type ...
