Behind the Paper
The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Fire is already Weakening the Worlds Carbon Sinks
As global temperatures hit 1.3°C, fires are already disrupting ecosystems and limiting their ability to absorb carbon. Climate policy must recognize how fires affect remaining carbon budgets as well as fires impact on people and the planet, even before reaching the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C target.
Unique Antibiotic Family
New antibiotics are a massive unmet need. The rise in antibiotic resistant bacteria is ever increasing such that antimicrobial resistance contributed to 5 million death last year, the next pandemic could be bacterial, and there are some conditions for which current antibiotics are ineffective.
A New Electrolyte for Molten Carbonate Decarbonization" - Transformative Research for CO2 Removal
"A New Electrolyte for Molten Carbonate Decarbonization," an advancement in decarbonization technology targeting the urgent need for large-scale carbon dioxide removal to combat climate change. Reshape how we approach carbon sequestration and graphene nanocarbon (GNC) production.
Unravelling the bioactive potential of a bacterial symbiont of a tropical bird
Novel Amycolatopsis sp. PS_44_ISF1 isolated from the uropygial gland of Pachycephala schlegelii possesses the ability to produce a series of bioactive compounds, including two novel families of metabolites. Our study exemplifies the underexplored chemical potential of bacterial symbionts of birds.
