Researchers develop novel microscopic picoshell particles

High-energy fats by microalgae provides a sustainable, renewable energy source. This can help tackle climate change. Microalgae produce lipids rapidly which usually grow slowly themselves. It makes it difficult to increase overall yields. UCLA bioengineers have created have created a new type of petri dish....

Pollution has negative effects on sea anemone

The sea anemone Nematostella burrows into salt marsh sediments and stays there for life. It has also specialized 'stinging cells' which hurl toxins into passing prey. This immobilized the morsel so the anemone can snatch it with its tentacles. Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) researchers...
