New insights could help prevent psychosis relapses in youth and young adults
New findings from 成人VR视频 researchers could help clinicians understand the course of delusions in youth and young adults that signal the need for a timely intervention to prevent a full relapse of psychosis.
Delusions 鈥 strong beliefs that don't align with commonly accepted reality鈥 are a defining symptom of psychosis but are not sufficiently understood.
Digitally cataloguing archived plant specimens can transform conservation efforts
Digitally cataloguing the more than 300 million plant specimens preserved in museums worldwide could yield crucial insights into how to preserve biodiversity amid climate change, a study by 成人VR视频 researchers has found.
Digitally cataloguing, or digitizing, a herbarium specimen involves recording the species name and original location and uploading that record to a digital repository that is publicly accessible.
A better way to assess bridges鈥 earthquake safety
Researchers from 成人VR视频 have developed a more efficient way to assess how likely a bridge is to be damaged in an earthquake. The information could help authorities prioritize infrastructure for upgrading and improve emergency response plans.
Microbes in orbit: Understanding spaceflight鈥檚 impact on gut health
Scientists have uncovered how space travel profoundly alters the gut microbiome, yielding insights that could shape future space missions.听
The groundbreaking study, led by a 成人VR视频 researcher in collaboration with University College Dublin (UCD), NASA鈥檚 GeneLab and an international consortium, offers the most detailed profile to date of how space travel affects gut microbes.听
The brain鈥檚 balancing system
A finding by a 成人VR视频-led team of neuroscientists could open doors to new treatments for a range of psychiatric and neurological disorders attributed to dysfunctions in specific dopamine pathways.
The power of face time: Insights from zebra finch courtship
A new study on songbirds sheds light on the power of social interaction to facilitate learning, insights that potentially apply to human development.
成人VR视频 researchers discovered that zebra finches deprived of early social experiences could still form strong bonds with a partner later in life. Once placed into cohabitation with a male, females that had never heard a mating song before could quickly develop a preference for his melody.

Ultrafine particles linked to over 1,000 deaths per year in Canada鈥檚 two largest cities
A first-of-its kind study conducted in Canada鈥檚 two largest cities by 成人VR视频-led researchers has linked about 1,100 premature deaths per year to an unregulated air pollutant.
Ultrafine particles (UFPs) primarily come from vehicle emissions and industrial activities. Canada鈥檚 federal and provincial governments have not set concentration limits for UFPs, as they have for larger fine particles known as PM2.5.
Study yields new insights into the link between global warming and rising sea levels
A 成人VR视频-led study suggests that Earth's natural forces could substantially reduce Antarctica鈥檚 impact on rising sea levels, but only if carbon emissions are swiftly reduced in the coming decades. By the same token, if emissions continue on the current trajectory, Antarctic ice loss could lead to more future sea level rise than previously thought.
