More likely to be struck by lightning than get tetanus. So why the boosters?

The United States could safely drop tetanus and diphtheria booster shots for adults and save an estimated $1 billion a year, according to a new review led by researchers at Oregon Health & Science University.

The ancient oxygen flood that forever changed life in the oceans

Some 390 million years ago in the ancient ocean, marine animals began colonizing depths previously uninhabited. New research indicates this underwater migration occurred in response to a permanent increase in deep-ocean oxygen, driven by the aboveground spread of woody plants — precursors to Earth’s first forests.  That rise in oxygen…

Scientists just created spacetime crystals made of knotted light

An internationally joint research group between Singapore and Japan has unveiled a blueprint for arranging exotic, knot-like patterns of light into repeatable crystals that extend across both space and time. The work lays out how to build and control “hopfion” lattices using structured beams at two different colors, pointing to…

Tiny hologram inside a fiber lets scientists control light with incredible precision

Precise control of light focus is essential for applications ranging from microscopy and laser surgery to quantum optics and telecommunications. However, existing solutions often rely on large, complex external components that limit integration and speed. In a new study published in Light: Science & Applications, researchers led by Professor Markus…

This tiny iron catalyst could transform the future of clean energy

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), often referred to as “hydrogen power banks,” are clean energy devices that generate electricity from hydrogen and oxygen with only water as a byproduct. Characterized by high efficiency, rapid start-up, and zero emissions, they hold great promise in transportation, portable electronics, and stationary power…

Sharks’ teeth are crumbling in acid seas

Sharks can famously replace their teeth, with new ones always growing as they’re using up the current set. As sharks rely on their teeth to catch prey, this is vital to the survival of one of the oceans’ top predators. But the ability to regrow teeth might not be enough…
