UC Berkeley archaeologists have proposed a new theory about how early humans hunted megafauna 13,000 years ago using Clovis points. Rather than throwing spears or scavenging, they suggest humans used planted spears braced against the ground to impale charging animals.
University Research | University of California, BerkeleyTwo recent studies involving Penn State researchers shed light on the ecological importance of red-backed salamanders and confirmed that proactive measures could prevent costly impacts from a wildlife disease spreading across Europe that has not yet reached North America.
University Research | The Pennsylvania State UniversityNew research from the University of Washington found that lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in unusually accelerated brain maturation in adolescents.
University Research | University of WashingtonResearchers led by UC Berkeley have developed a groundbreaking micromachine called MEGA2D that can precisely twist and manipulate 2D materials, such as graphene and hexagonal boron nitride, to explore quantum material properties.
University Research | University of California, Berkeley | Massachusetts Institute of Technology | Harvard University | Stanford Universitya postdoctoral researcher at the University of Oregon is investigating the link between zinc deficiency and the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. Her research focuses on how zinc affects artery health, particularly in older adults, whose zinc levels naturally decrease with age.
University Research | University of OregonAn international collaboration that included the University of Michigan has spotted six likely rogue worlds—objects with planet-like masses but untethered from any star’s gravity—using the James Webb Space Telescope, or JWST.
University Research | University of MichiganA team of researchers from Penn State developed an ultrathin optical element known as a metasurface, which can attach to a conventional camera and encode the spectral and polarization data of images captured in a snapshot or video through tiny, antenna-like nanostructures that tailor light…
University Research | The Pennsylvania State UniversityWhile offshore scuba diving, University of Oregon researchers collected different species of salps, a type of transparent, gelatinous plankton, that can teach us how to move more efficiently in different parts of the ocean.
University Research | University of OregonResearchers from UC Berkeley have discovered a new species of choanoflagellate, Barroeca monosierra, in the harsh environment of Mono Lake.
University Research | University of California, BerkeleyNew research led by the University of Washington and NOAA reveals that underwater noise pollution from vessels in the Salish Sea is a major factor hindering the recovery of the southern resident orca population, which remains critically endangered.
