Working in the grasslands, Billi spent her days interacting with ranch staff, many of whom are working on multigenerational operations. “I try to approach any kind of interaction with as much humility as I can.” Billi acknowledges she is a visitor to these areas, and curiously seeks out the inherent knowledge of others, whether it’s the grasslands of South Dakota or the rainforests of Central Africa.

Discerning whether a nuclear reactor is being used to also create material for nuclear weapons is difficult, but capturing and analyzing antimatter particles has shown promise for monitoring what specific nuclear reactor operations are occurring, even from hundreds of miles away. Researchers have developed a detector that exploits Cherenkov radiation, sensing antineutrinos and characterizing their energy profiles from miles away as a way of monitoring activity at nuclear reactors. They proposed to assemble their device in northeast England and detect antineutrinos from reactors from all over the U.K. as well as in northern France.

Sustainable agriculture can benefit the environment but only when food safety and human health are taken into account.

Significant progress in augmented reality (AR) technology has been made with the creation of holographic polymer nanocomposites. These materials exhibit a high refractive index modulation of 0.050 at 633 nm, coupled with a minimal haze of 5.0%.

Leonardo DiCaprio—actor, producer, and activist? You got that right. DiCaprio uses his Instagram page to shed light on environmental issues. Scrolling through his Instagram, he shares articles about restoring forests in Madagascar, rewilding projects in Scotland, and salmon farms in Canada.

Kimberly Blockett, professor and chair of the Department of Africana Studies at the University of Delaware, can comment on Donald Trump’s recent appearance before the National Association of Black Journalists and remarks he made there regarding Vice President Kamala Harris’…

A rare conifer, Cupressus gigantea, has an unexpectedly lower genetic load despite its dwindling population size. This study explores the evolutionary strategy behind its survival, focusing on the purging of deleterious mutations that contribute to its enduring legacy in the face of climate change and habitat fragmentation.

Office of Science Director Berhe and national laboratory scientists discuss what the NCA5 is and its importance.

Small rotating magnetic islands in tokamaks flowing at the same speed can couple together to cause disruptive islands that reduce plasma confinement.

The Empa research group led by Maksym Kovalenko is researching innovative materials for the batteries of tomorrow. Whether it’s fast-charging electric cars or low-cost stationary storage, there’s a promising material or a novel manufacturing process for every application.

A new study published in the journal Substance Use and Misuse finds that while user-generated content and advertising content related to illegal muscle-building drugs is prohibited across all social media platforms, legal muscle-building dietary supplements faced few restrictions.

A new study led by researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center discovered loss of metabolic fitness in chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) natural killer (NK) cells is a critical mechanism of resistance, with infused cells gradually losing the ability to compete with tumor cells for nutrients, leading to tumor relapse.
