Augmented reality (AR), the technology that overlays digital content onto what users see around them in real-time, is now widely used in the retail, gaming and entertainment industries, as well as in some educational settings and learning environments. A

Some of the most promising materials for future technologies come in layers just one atom thick, such as graphene, a sheet of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice, prized for its exceptional strength and conductivity. While hundreds of such materi

Recently, a research team has successfully elucidated the stage-specific roles of plant hormones, particularly exogenous trans-zeatin (tZ), in regulating axillary bud development in Eucommia ulmoides, a high-value economic crop.

A recent study explores the potential of germinated flours as functional ingredients in breadmaking, highlighting both their nutritional benefits and their technological challenges.

When left out on the counter for too long, a loaf of bread grows mold. That mold is a common type of filamentous fungi, a microorganism that grows in thread-like structures that can ruin baked goods.

Scientists are using isotopes to answer a surprising variety of questions about the world, according to University of Cincinnati Professor Brooke Crowley.

Locusts have undersized babies—with their first lunch already in their guts—in dry conditions. Desert locusts have two distinct modes—solitary and gregarious—that are behaviorally and visibly different. The insects also live in the Sahara desert, an envir

Changes to a pest's diet could slow the evolution of resistance to biopesticides, according to research from University of Stirling scientists.

Can goats help each other? A new study by the Research Institute of Farm Animal Biology (FBN) in Dummerstorf in collaboration with colleagues from the University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna suggests that goats exhibit prosocial behavior—i.e. they are wi

Researchers have developed a machine learning model called DreaMS, which significantly accelerates the analysis of previously unknown molecules. The study is published in Nature Biotechnology.

Researchers have found evidence of a previously unrecognized soft tissue structure in the cheek region of many dinosaur species, which they've called the "exoparia." The finding deepens our understanding of dinosaur anatomy and highlights t

A new study reveals the biological secret to the Zika virus's infectious success: Zika uses host cells' own "self-care" system of clearing away useless molecules to suppress the host proteins that the virus has employed to get into tho
