Solving the carbon storage gap with ocean-based enhanced weathering reactor technologies

Martin Van Den Berghe, CEO of Cytochrome, explains how to solve the carbon storage gap with ocean-based Enhanced Rock Weathering reactor technologies.
Big Orca looking around

Animal welfare: Understanding why Orcas are sinking boats

The orcas who have sunk seven boats off the coast of Spain and Portugal within four years have captured the public’s attention — but for all the wrong reasons. So why are Orcas sinking boats, and why is changing the narrative important?.
Deep Learning And Neural Networks Background

The general principles behind neuronal connectivity

A single set of basic networking principles governs how neurons wire together, shaping the brain's circuitry.

Revolutionising CO2 capture: The microbial enzyme solution

By isolating a microbial enzyme and attaching it to an electrode, researchers have achieved efficient one-way conversion of CO2 into formate and, therefore, discovering a new form of CO2 capture.
A range of sea urchin spines from different periods of the Earth's history illustrating the diversity of shapes. Credit: PLOS ONE (2023). DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0288046

Could 104 million year old fossil spines reveal the history of the sea?

What can fossil spines really tell us about ocean adaptation? Beneath the Ocean's surface, the earliest, most basic life forms on Earth emerged but how did they survive mass extinction? The deep sea is now known for its unusual marine life, but what researchers really want to know is how...

Arctic dipole reversal: Key factor in arctic sea ice trend

New research led by an international team of scientists explains why Arctic Sea ice loss has slowed since 2007. Their findings indicated this was linked to a weather pattern called the Arctic dipole reversal This Phenomenon, Known as 'Atlantification,' Reveals How North Atlantic Waters Impact the Arctic Ocean's Climate. Responses to...

Exploring hexacorallian models to aid corals affected by climate change

In this interview, Benyamin Rosental, PhD, from the Shraga Segal Department of Microbiology, Immunology, and Genetics, looks toward hexacorallian models to transplant stem cells to corals affected by global warming.

Seaweed farming: Biomass production from algae

Algae are a high-potential yet underexplored source of renewable biomass, could seaweed farming be the future for biomass production?
The functional utility of intellectual humanity in a polarized world

The functional utility of intellectual humanity in a polarized world

Only in the past decade or so have social scientists seriously studied intellectual humility as a virtue that might counter problems with this alarming social trend toward division Colonel Jessup—you may not remember the name, but some of you will know whom we are talking about. He is the fictional...
Microscopic nano robot kills disease-causing bacteria inside the human body

‘Nano-robot’ built entirely from DNA

Nano-robot made from DNA can study cell processes invisible to the naked eye.

Octopus’ brain and human brain share the same ‘jumping genes’

A new study has identified a link between genes in both the human brain and the octopus brain which could explain the remarkable intelligence of the invertebrates .
Soil Microbes

Could soil microbes be a solution to the climate crisis?

Research from Arpita Bose’s lab combines nature with the laboratory to innovate solutions to our global climate crisis Much of the focus on climate change mitigation lies in reducing anthropogenic emissions of carbon greenhouse gases (e.g., carbon dioxide, CO2; methane, CH4), which continue to increase. An additional consideration is the...
Hawaiian coral,

61% of Hawaiian coral exposed to warming conditions, survive

In an optimistic 22-month study of Hawaiian coral, researchers find they may adapt well to warmer and more acidic oceans resulting from climate change.
