Dominant Bacteria Drive Soil Carbon Usage

Bacterial “miners” shown in relief working to process soil nutrients, some more efficiently than others. Bradyrhizobium, one of the three top nutrient processors identified in the study, is shown here consolidating its control of carbon from a glucose addition, processing the nutrients with industrial efficiency (in the form of a bucket wheel excavator).

Russian Scientists Investigate the Immune Response to COVID

Russian Scientists Investigate the Immune Response to COVID Variations (Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta, Eta, Theta, Trace, Kappa and Lambda)The continuing development of new SARS-CoV-2 anomalies allows the virus to spread more effectively and also avert antibodies. Nevertheless, it is unclear whether brand-new strains can escape T-cell immunity - one of the body's...

Credit: Dani ClodeUsing a robotic ‘Third Thumb’ can impact how the hand is represented in the brain, finds a new study led by University College London researchers.The group trained individuals to use an additional robotic thumb and found they could effectively carry out dextrous...

Antibodies Shield Against Alphaviruses

Scientists Identify Antibodies that Might Safeguard Against AlphavirusesScientists at Washington College Institution of Medication in St. Louis have determined two antibodies that protect animals from disease brought on by alphaviruses. The antibodies helped every alphavirus checked, suggesting they possibly can create the basis of treatments or serve as a theme for universal vaccination.Rising Concerns:...
