Planetary habitability, defined by a planet’s ability to sustain liquid water on its surface, is one of the most important concepts in exoplanet science. Exoplanets…
In a recent study, NYU Abu Dhabi faculty Alberto Gandolfi proposes alternate weeks of in-classroom and remote teaching as a way to allow students to…
Fewer New Yorkers are dying from the coronavirus than health experts had anticipated, a new study shows. Regional death rates have dropped from the highs…
Stone forests — pointed rock formations resembling trees that populate regions of China, Madagascar, and many other locations worldwide — are as majestic as they…
Social distancing during COVID-19 creates new contexts for drug use. People have traded in nightclubs and dance festivals for virtual raves and Zoom happy hours…
A team of scientists has concluded that our cognitive limitations lead to probability distortions and to subsequent errors in decision-making. The chances of a commercial…
Innovative tools and pendants previously thought to be possibly the work of Neanderthals. Blade-like tools and animal tooth pendants previously discovered in Europe, and once…
Findings have implications for increasing plant nitrogen use efficiency, reducing reliance on fertilizers. Plant scientists have long known that crop yield is proportional to the…
Teeth constitute a permanent and faithful biological archive of the entirety of the individual’s life, from tooth formation to death, a team of researchers has…
