“#Stellar fireworks celebrate birth of giant cluster” Star cluster G286.21 0.17, caught in the act of formation. This is a multiwavelength mosaic of more than 750 ALMA radio images, and 9 Hubble infrared images. ALMA shows molecular clouds (purple) and Hubble shows stars and glowing dust (yellow and red).

“#Prospective teachers misperceive Black children as angry” Credit: CC0 Public Domain Prospective teachers appear more likely to misperceive Black children as angry than white children, which may undermine the education of Black youth, according to new research published by the American Psychological Association. While previous research has documented this effect in adults, this is the…
“#New sequencing technology will help scientists decipher disease mechanisms” Credit: CC0 Public Domain New technologies capable of sequencing single molecules in fine detail will help scientists better understand the mechanisms of rare nucleotides thought to play an important role in the progression of some diseases. A review paper, led by a scientist at the University…
“#Gender gaps in STEM college majors emerge in high school” Credit: CC0 Public Domain Although studies have shown that women are more likely than men to enter and complete college in U.S. higher education, women are less likely to earn degrees in science, technology, engineering and math fields. In new research, Kim Weeden, the Jan…
“#Invasive mosquito found in Finland could potentially transmit malaria” Anopheles daciae. Credit: Lorna Culverwell During collections for a study to map the distribution of mosquito species in Finland, Anopheles daciae, a species previously not known to occur in Finland was found at several locations in the south of the country. As this species is very…
“#New platform gauges effects of plastic nanoparticles on human development and health” Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain Plastic pollution is a critical environmental issue facing the world today, yet the impact of all the microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) that have seeped into the food and beverage supply on human health is an “undervalued avenue of…
“#Global e-waste surging: Up 21% in 5 years” E-waste — discarded products with a battery or plug — will reach 74 Mt by 2030, almost a doubling of e-waste in just 16 years. This makes e-waste the world’s fastest-growing domestic waste stream, fueled mainly by higher consumption rates of electric and electronic equipment, short life…
“#A typhoon changed earthquake patterns, study shows” Images from a satellite (LANDSAT) show massive erosion after the typhoon Morakot hit Taiwan. This influenced seismicity in the affected regions. Credit: NASA/LANDSAT The Earth’s crust is under constant stress. Every now and then this stress is discharged in heavy earthquakes, mostly caused by the slow movement of…
“#The lightest electromagnetic shielding material in the world” A sample of the electromagnetic shielding material made by Empa – a composite of cellulose nanofibres and silver nanowires. Credit: Empa Electric motors and electronic devices generate electromagnetic fields that sometimes have to be shielded in order not to affect neighboring electronic components or the transmission of…
“#Spintronics: Faster data processing through ultrashort electric pulses” Credit: CC0 Public Domain Physicists at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) and Lanzhou University in China developed a simple concept that could significantly improve magnetic-based data processing. Using ultrashort electric pulses in the terahertz range, data can be written, read and erased very quickly. This would make…
