Cannon on her marriage to the "North by Northwest" star, their embattled dynamic and being fair to his fans

Astronomers at the University of Toronto have discovered a population of massive stars that have been stripped of their hydrogen envelopes by their companions in binary systems. The findings, published in Science, shed light on the hot helium stars that are believed to be the origins of hydrogen-poor core-collapse supernovae and neutron star mergers.

An international team of scientists led by geneticists and disease biologists from the University of Oxford and LMU Munich have used ancient DNA to trace the evolution of Marek's Disease Virus (MDV). This global pathogen causes fatal infections in unvaccinated chickens and costs the poultry industry over $1 billion per year.

The human gut is home to hundreds of different bacterial species collectively known as the gut microbiome. A major health benefit these provide is to protect the gut against invading pathogens (disease-causing microorganisms) that could cause harmful infections. But up to now, how this protective effect comes about has been unclear, and whether certain bacterial species have a more important role than others.

Researchers from the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History led a new analysis that sheds light on the ancestry and genetics of woolly dogs, a now extinct breed of dog that was a fixture of Indigenous Coast Salish communities in the Pacific Northwest for millennia. Anthropologist Logan Kistler and evolutionary molecular biologist Audrey Lin analyzed genetic clues preserved in the pelt of "Mutton," the only known woolly dog fleece in the world, to pinpoint the genes responsible for their highly sought-after woolly fur.

The "Nature Restoration Law" (NRL) requires member states of the EU to implement restoration measures on at least 20 percent of land and marine areas by 2030 and in all ecosystems in need of restoration by 2050. This includes specific targets to rewet peatlands and to increase pollinator populations. The NRL has already overcome various hurdles: most recently, it was approved by the EU Parliament's Environment Committee after delegations of the Parliament and the Council negotiated the final text.

Environmental scientists in Canada continue to be stifled in their ability to conduct and communicate their research. Interference in science, also referred to as "muzzling," was a well-documented concern during the Conservative government of the early 2010's, when it gripped the collective consciousness of Canadian federal public sector scientists. Our research sheds light on a broader understanding of the recent interference in environmental sciences in Canada.

"We can alter the course of this devastating disease and slow it down," scientists at Emory University told Newsweek.

TotalEnergies has big plans for South African oil and gas despite increasing pressure from environmentalists to curb production. Following the recent go-ahead from the government to develop a new project in the country’s Orange Basin, it appears that Total has solidified its position in the upstream sector of South Africa’s oil industry following several months of uncertainty. In October, the South African government approved TotalEnergies' bid to drill test wells in the Orange Basin, which extends into Namibia... Читать дальше...
