A catalyst that destroys perchlorate in water could clean Martian soil. A team led by University of California Riverside engineers has developed a catalyst to remove…
UC Riverside-led study finds extreme tidal mass loss in dwarf galaxies formed in a simulation. A team led by astronomers at the University of California,…
UC Riverside dark matter research program targets assumptions about particle physics. As its name suggests, dark matter — material which makes up about 85% of…
UC Riverside will lead collaborative effort at developing scalable quantum computers. The University of California, Riverside, has won a University of California Multicampus-National Lab Collaborative…
A filter made from polymer nanothreads blew three kinds of commercial masks out of the water by capturing 99.9% of coronavirus aerosols in an experiment….
Scientists characterize previously unknown gut reactions. Strictly speaking, humans cannot digest complex carbohydrates — that’s the job of bacteria in our large intestines. UC Riverside…
Detection innovation could enhance drug development and cancer research. Small changes in the structure of DNA have been implicated in breast cancer and other diseases,…
Trilobites Had a Leg Up on Breathing A new study has found the first evidence of sophisticated breathing organs in 450-million-year-old sea creatures. Contrary to…
The earliest multicellular organisms may have lacked heads, legs, or arms, but pieces of them remain inside of us today, new research shows. According to…
UC Riverside-led study observed unexpected insulating phases by placing electrons on stacked monolayers of 2D semiconductors. Materials that have excess electrons are typically conductors. However,…
UC Riverside mouse study shows where in the brain sensory input is transformed to movement. When we step on the car brake upon seeing a…
Effects of unhealthy food followed young mice into adulthood. Eating too much fat and sugar as a child can alter your microbiome for life, even…
An astro-statistics course University of California, Riverside, graduate student Remington O. Sexton took three years ago taught him techniques that led him to develop free,…
Mice develop diabetes after exposure through mothers. A new UC Riverside study shows flame retardants found in nearly every American home cause mice to give…
Tiny, seemingly harmless ocean plants survived the darkness of the asteroid strike that killed the dinosaurs by learning a ghoulish behavior — eating other living…
Study shows the destabilizing effect of the giant gas planet. Venus might not be a sweltering, waterless hellscape today, if Jupiter hadn’t altered its orbit…
UC Riverside-led team’s technique relied on determining the mass of galaxy clusters. A top goal in cosmology is to precisely measure the total amount of…
UC Riverside-led study found self-interacting dark matter theory explains why two galaxies have less dark matter than others. A new theory about the nature of…
