The study found multiple spillover events from humans to deer of the Alpha and Delta lineages, and subsequent transmission among white-tailed deer and adaptation of the viruses in the deer.
There is a greater likelihood of increased hydropower generation but the risk arises from very high inflow due to extreme rainfall, especially when the reservoirs are already full
Later this month, the SUV-size payload will be moved into a special cargo container for a 14,000-kilometer flight to the U. R. Rao Satellite Centre in Bengaluru
They were discovered using telescopes in Hawaii and Chile in 2021 and 2022, and their orbits were confirmed with follow-up observations.
The colourful insects that travel vast distances over the course of generations have been closely watched since they neared extinction just three years ago.
The obervation came from a recent paper from Australia which was widely misquoted and consisted of only seven children during the pre-vaccine era.
A study found that the UV light emitted from these devices leads to cell death and cancer-causing mutations in human cells.
Western countries practise patient autonomy whereas in India, the patient’s family plays a vital role in treatment decisions.
Le Le’s peaceful death as he slept was “sudden and unexpected” with no indication that he was sick.
There may be ways to enhance these processes so the ocean pulls more carbon out of the atmosphere to help slow climate change.
Hear from the chief of the CSIR, the secretary of the DBT, a geologist, an electrical engineer, and a geneticist.
February 4 is observed as World Cancer Day; new cases in Karnataka are likely to increase to 97,130 by 2025, as per a projection
Good quality indoor air is crucial to our well-being, while impurities in the air can compromise our working capacity and health. Researchers have developed a new method for measuring indoor air quality, making use of fluorescent strains of nematodes.
New research has revealed that the process of 'peopling' the entire continent of Sahul -- the combined mega continent that joined Australia with New Guinea when sea levels were much lower than today -- took 10,000 years. Sophisticated models show the scale of the challenges faced by the ancestors of Indigenous people making their mass migration across the supercontinent more than 60,000 years ago. This pattern led to a rapid expansion both southward toward the Great Australian Bight, and northward from the Kimberley region to settle all parts of New Guinea and, later, the southwest and southeast of Australia.
In a new study, researchers claim that the energy payback period of using phase change materials, new technology in the construction industry, is the shortest in a colder climate. The optimal location for their usage is the interior on the northern side of the building. The study provides informed answers regarding the application of PCMs to improve buildings' energy efficiency.
Researchers have uncovered the intricacies of gene expression rhythms in humans, shedding new light on how sex and age influence our body clocks.
There is a correlation between traffic noise and risk of developing tinnitus, researchers have found. They point to a vicious cycle involving stress reactions and sleep disturbance as a potential cause. If you live near a busy road, it may increase your stress levels and affect your sleep. When we are under stress and sleep poorly, we may be at a higher risk of developing tinnitus.
Ordinary ice is crystalline in nature, with water molecules arranged in a regular pattern.
