| Hormones contribute to sex disparities in bladder cancer, study shows Posted: 09 Jun 2022 04:50 PM PDT Male sex hormones interfere with the body's ability to fight bladder cancer, likely explaining why males experience higher cancer rates and more deadly disease, according to a new study. |
| Climate economics: Policies change people Posted: 09 Jun 2022 12:57 PM PDT The makers of climate policy should rethink how people think: Researchers show that abiding by climate-friendly policies actually changes the way people think about what they do. People's preferences are more dynamic than textbook economics often assumes. The researchers' advice to policy makers is to take changing preferences into account when tailoring policies like carbon taxes or building low-carbon infrastructure. |
| Drought-exposure history improves recovery of grassland communities from subsequent drought Posted: 09 Jun 2022 12:57 PM PDT When a plant community is exposed to drought, the different species undergo evolutionary changes. An international study with UZH participation now shows that this leads to improved resilience to future drought stress over time. |
| Ultra-thin, flexible probe provides neural interface that's minimally invasive and long-lasting Posted: 09 Jun 2022 10:20 AM PDT Researchers have developed a tiny, flexible neural probe that can be implanted for longer time periods to record and stimulate neural activity, while minimizing injury to the surrounding tissue. The probe would be ideal for studying small and dynamic areas of the nervous system like peripheral nerves or the spinal cord. |
| New feedback system can improve efficiency of fusion reactions Posted: 09 Jun 2022 10:19 AM PDT Scientists have refined the use of magnetic fields to improve the performance of doughnut-shaped fusion facilities known as tokamaks. The improved technique protects internal parts from damage by instabilities and allows tokamaks to operate for longer without pausing. |
| Posted: 09 Jun 2022 10:19 AM PDT Extensively used grassland is host to a high degree of biodiversity, and performs an important climate protection function as a carbon sink and also serves for fodder and food production. However, these ecosystem services are jeopardized if productivity on these lands is maximized and their use therefore intensified. Researchers have now described how satellite data and machine learning methods enable to assess land-use intensity. |
| The interferon gamma receptor pathway is necessary for CAR T-cell mediated killing in solid tumors Posted: 09 Jun 2022 10:19 AM PDT Researchers have discovered that the interferon gamma receptor (IFNgR) signaling pathway is critical for susceptibility of glioblastoma tumors to killing by CAR T-cell immunotherapy. |
