Developing a theoretical model to understand how isotopes change spectroscopy resultsResearchers investigate how oxygen isotopes in forsterite (Mg2SiO4) affect Raman spectroscopy results to develop a theoretical framework for better interpretation of spectral data
Favorable lifestyle and health linked to lower dementia risk even in people with a genetic risk factorA large Japanese study suggests that favorable lifestyle and health conditions are linked to lower dementia risk in people with no or one APOE ε4 allele, while those with two alleles may require different preventive or therapeutic approaches
Four new international collaborative research projects launch under the RENKEI Consortium
France-Japan workshop held at Sorbonne UniversityInternational joint research laboratory OPHELIA launches
Seven-second X-ray scan accurately detects severity of heart valve regurgitation in patients with repaired congenital heart defectsDynamic chest radiography bridges the gap between echocardiography and cardiac MRI—expanding diagnostic options when cardiac MRI is unavailable or contraindicated
How Alaska Native communities navigate a potential $170 billion gold mineJapanese researchers find that simple ’support’ or ’opposition’ cannot capture the full complexity of Alaska Native communities’ decision-making
