Research conducted at the University of São Paulo (USP) in Brazil revealed that hops (Humulus lupulus L.) industrial waste from the brewing industry is a viable option for sunscreen formulation production. The multidisciplinary study, which involved researchers from USP's School of Pharmaceutical Sciences (FCF), was inspired by the large amount of waste generated and discarded during beer production. The study brought together complementary expertise in natural products and bioactive photoprotec

Justin Scholten '22 knows the plants growing on the forest floor around the Finger Lakes. There's the white baneberry, Actaea pachypoda and the red baneberry, Actaea rubra. Both are about 30–70 centimeters tall, herbaceous and extremely toxic to humans. But in 2023 as he hiked through Summer Hill State Forest, less than 30 miles northeast of Ithaca, he noticed an oddity: a pink baneberry.

Researchers have developed tiny flexible lasers that can be used to measure forces inside living cells. The new lasers could help illuminate various biological processes, including those involved in early development and tumor progression.
