Single-step 8-9x expansion reveals nanoscale centrioles without electron microscopy

New research from Queen Mary University of London shows how extreme seasonal patterns are causing rainforest butterflies to adapt their reproductive strategies at a rapid pace, with implications for species resilience under accelerating climate disruption.

Europe, which is in the throes of a record-smashing heat wave this week, is the world's fastest-warming continent and stretches into an even more rapidly heating Arctic.

Along the California coast, from Bodega Bay to Morro Bay, commercial fishing boats have started pulling in salmon for the first time in three years, and local salmon are once again appearing on restaurant menus and in seafood markets across the state.

The performance and safety profile of lithium batteries has improved immensely over the years, but new technologies are constantly demanding even better performance and increased safety demands due to higher energy densities. Now, a study, published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, reports on a new method that improves the way plasticizers work with poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) in the electrolytes of lithium batteries, further improving performance and safety.
