Microprocessor-scale transistors detect and respond to biological states and the environment. Your phone may have more than 15 billion tiny transistors packed into its microprocessor…
Researchers uncover the process by which centuries of corrosion and crystallization formed photonic crystals. Approximately 2,000 years ago in ancient Rome, glass containers filled with…
The model, created by Tufts researchers, showed that two existing drugs demonstrate potential for more selective therapeutic options. Scientists at Tufts University School of Medicine…
In the largest known such study to date, an analysis of participant records by Tufts University researchers found programs that provide free fruits and vegetables…
Minimizing the necessity for animal biopsies, stem cells offer a potentially endless source for cultured meat. For cellular agriculture—a technique that grows meat in bioreactors—to…
A new study from the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University shows the likelihood of extreme weather in wheat-producing areas of…
A study has established a correlation between a poor diet and 14 million cases of type 2 diabetes worldwide. According to a research model developed…
A recent study has highlighted the need for a unified definition of whole-grain foods, as there are currently multiple competing definitions in use. A new…
A new study, the first to examine vitamin D levels in brain tissue, may help scientists further understand dementia and its causes. Worldwide, an estimated…
Researchers say e-cigarettes and similar vaping devices are associated with a higher risk for cavities. A vaping habit could end up leading to a tarnished…
Diets deemed better by the Food Compass profiling system are associated with lower risk of disease and death. Tufts University researchers find link between foods…
Using a 3D neural tissue model, scientists found the compounds diminish amyloid plaques with no side effects. In the United States, Alzheimer’s disease is the…
A new study reveals that diets have slightly improved globally over the past three decades. Most nations would receive a score of around 40.3 on…
A University of California, Riverside physicist explains. In a study co-led by physicists at the University of California, Riverside and the University of California, Irvine,…
Blood sugar, general inflammation, and microbiome-related metabolites like TMAO seem to be more crucial in regulating heart disease risk than blood pressure or cholesterol levels….
Scientists found that men who consumed high rates of ultra-processed foods were at higher risk for developing colorectal cancer than those who did not. Many…
Five universities worked together to conduct the largest and longest avocado research study. According to recent research, eating one avocado every day for six months…
