Scientists are exploring new ways to keep our food fresh. One interesting discovery is using proteins from quinoa that can fight off bacteria. These proteins, called antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), were created by mixing different bacteria together. Out of all these AMPs, one called F1 was the supers
On Christmas Day, a family from Newton, Massachusetts, was found dead in their New Hampshire lake house.

Ever wondered how doctors figure out what's wrong with you? They often look at images from different types of scans. But putting these images together is like solving a puzzle, and it takes time and money. That's where multimodal medical image fusion (MMIF) comes in. It's like a superhero that combi
Florida may have required African American history in schools for decades, but many students still receive incomplete lessons. This gap has led to community efforts like Charlene Farrington's Saturday classes at the Spady Cultural Heritage Museum in Delray Beach. Here, students delve into South Flor
You might think of grape pomace, the leftovers from winemaking, as just waste. But scientists are discovering that this by-product is brimming with beneficial molecules.

In the 2024 U. S. presidential election, billionaires like Elon Musk and Michael Bloomberg spent record amounts, highlighting the influence of wealthy donors. In Maine, a small state with a big idea, residents voted to limit super PAC donations to $5, 000 per individual or entity. This law went into
Have you ever wondered how scientists sort out massive amounts of data from health tests? They usually use something called mass spectrometry, which helps break down complex biological samples. However, this process can be slow and tricky, making it tough to study big groups of people. Enter PeakMei
