Investigadores desarrollan uno de los registros más completos hasta la fecha sobre un fenómeno que ha sido poco estudiado en el continente blanco. La nueva herramienta, que abarca 46 años de información, permitirá fortalecer el estudio del clima polar y evaluar su representación en los modelos climáticos. Santiago, 29 deContinuar Leyendo
Scientists study poop patterns of Adélie penguin colonies across all of Antarctica over a 30-year span using Landsat satellite images, a first for capturing food-web and population trends at continental and decadal scales relative to climate change. Scientists from a handful of universities across the country have made innovative useContinuar Leyendo
Observations made with the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope (ESO’s VLT) have revealed evidence for a moon-like object in the CD-35 2722 system. Unlike moons in our Solar System, the newly found object does not orbit a planet, raising questions about what to name it. Instead, it circles aContinuar Leyendo
Researchers at the University of Vienna have discovered a key mechanism that enables sea anemones to regenerate into a fully developed organism from disorganised clusters of cells. The study, published in Nature Communications, shows that the so-called Notch signalling pathway controls tissue organisation and the formation of the body axis.Continuar Leyendo
Researchers from the University of Bern, in collaboration with ETH Zurich and ZHAW, have developed a new, particularly gentle method for discovering drug candidates. Instead of using harsh chemicals, they rely on Nature’s catalysts to build large collections of potential bioactive compounds. These work in water and under mild conditions.Continuar Leyendo
Dark Energy Camera captures stars, nebulae, clusters, and more in a rich, Van Gogh-esque scene Tucson, July 17, 2026.- The 570-megapixel Department of Energy-fabricated Dark Energy Camera (DECam) captures a vibrant scene, filled with swirls and stars reminiscent of Van Gogh’s The Starry Night. This new cosmic masterpiece features glowingContinuar Leyendo
Transplanting stem-cell derived dopamine progenitor cells into the brain to treat Parkinson’s disease is feasible, a landmark study has shown. Eight patients were transplanted in the first clinical trial, and no serious side effects linked to the transplanted cells were seen during the first year of follow‑up. Cambigde, July 17,Continuar Leyendo
New York, July 16, 2026.- Picture this: You’re enjoying a summer lunch outdoors, unaware that beneath the table, a hungry mosquito is circling your ankles—until you feel the telltale bite. If that mosquito happens to be carrying a pathogen like West Nile Virus (WNV), that bite could turn into moreContinuar Leyendo
People from all cultures share the ability to recognise music and respond to it with movement. Whilst the processing of music in adults has already been well researched, it has remained unclear until now how and when infants begin to translate heard musical stimuli into spontaneous body movements. An internationalContinuar Leyendo
Scientists have, for the first time, used an extremely precise genome editing technique called base editing to study gene function in human embryos. They found that a gene called NANOG is essential for forming the future body from an embryo. Cambrigde, July 03, 2026.- Research led by the University of CambridgeContinuar Leyendo
