Genetic code evolution and Darwin’s evolution theory should consider DNA an “energy code.” Darwin’s theory of evolution should be expanded to include consideration of a…
How did rocks rust on Earth and turn red? A Rutgers-led study has shed new light on the important phenomenon and will help address questions…
Unprecedented warming in equatorial Pacific Ocean could last up to seven years. A nuclear war could trigger an unprecedented El Niño-like warming episode in the…
How to Identify Heat-Stressed Corals Researchers have found a novel way to identify heat-stressed corals, which could help scientists pinpoint the coral species that need protection…
3D-Printed Smart Gel Changes Shape When Exposed to Light Inspired by the color-changing skin of cuttlefish, octopuses and squids, Rutgers engineers have created a 3D-printed…
People with severe COVID-19 who had secondary bloodstream infections were sicker, had longer hospital stays and worse health outcomes, Rutgers study finds. People with severe…
A Rutgers philosopher examines the ethical questions around human challenge trials for COVID-19 vaccines. The first human challenge trial to test COVID-19 treatments and vaccines…
New study sheds light on subsurface melting of thick ice billions of years ago. The most habitable region for life on Mars would have been…
Standardizing fee-for-service payments and structuring negotiations between insurers and providers could make U.S. health care more affordable, Rutgers study says. Structuring negotiations between insurers and…
Warm, moist rivers of air may have continent-wide effects and influence climate change. Warm, moist rivers of air in Antarctica play a key role in…
Engineers invent way to spray extremely thin wires on 3D objects. Engineers have invented a way to spray extremely thin wires made of a plant-based…
Rutgers study is the first to model impact of 5G radiation “leakage” on forecasting. Upcoming 5G wireless networks that will provide faster cell phone service…
Ocean algae get ‘coup de grace’ from viruses. Viruses don’t immediately kill algae but live in harmony with them. Scientists have long believed that ocean…
Cooled graphene mimics effect of enormous magnetic fields that would benefit electronics. Graphene, an extremely thin two-dimensional layer of the graphite used in pencils, buckles…
Unusual nanoparticles could benefit the quest to build a quantum computer. Imagine tiny crystals that “blink” like fireflies and can convert carbon dioxide, a key…
The technology’s regional impacts depend on how much greenhouse gas emissions are reduced. Could we create massive sulfuric acid clouds that limit global warming and…
Mangrove trees – valuable coastal ecosystems found in Florida and other warm climates – won’t survive sea-level rise by 2050 if greenhouse gas emissions aren’t…
Surprising glacial and nearly ice-free periods in last 66 million years. New research by Rutgers scientists reaffirms that modern sea-level rise is linked to human…
