A study of senescent (inactive) osteoclasts in the vertebral column of mice suggests that using anti-senescent drugs could relieve the spinal sensitivity that causes lower back pain.

A research team has developed a reversible, water-based glue that has good adhesion in the neutral pH range, but can be detached again in strongly acidic or alkaline environments.

Researchers at Tulane have developed a new and rapid test that can detect both HIV and tuberculosis at the same time with just a small amount of blood.

Liquid metals could be the long-awaited solution to “greening” the chemical industry, according to researchers who tested a new technique they hope can replace energy-intensive chemical engineering processes.

An international group of 35 scientists, including IRES’s Gunilla Öberg, is calling out conflicts of interest plaguing global plastic treaty negotiations and that have interfered with timely action on other health and environmental issues.

An analysis of beeswax in managed honeybee hives in New York finds a wide variety of pesticide, herbicide and fungicide residues, exposing current and future generations of bees to long-term toxicity.

When scientists examined pellets from recycled plastic collected in 13 countries they found hundreds of toxic chemicals, including pesticides and pharmaceuticals.

Researchers present a novel experimental system for simultaneous measurement of dynamic mechanical properties and X-ray computed tomography.

In 2021, a University-led research team received a contract worth up to $33 million to develop an implantable “living pharmacy” to control the human body’s sleep/wake cycles. Now, the researchers have completed a major step toward achieving this.

Trapping a material's electrons in a "flat band" may induce behaviors including superconductivity and unique forms of magnetism. A new study has trapped electrons in pure crystal for the first time.
