None of the data on coronavirus vaccines so far provides credible evidence in support of boosters for the general population, according to a review published Monday by an international group of scientists, including some at the Food and Drug Administration and the World Health Organization.

Scientists say boosters aren’t needed for general population

In an unusual experiment, the scientists are trying to “potty-train” a herd of cows. The scientists say it can pave way for environmentally friendly farms. The scientists claim the cattle farms’ waste often contaminates soil and waterways.

The proposed Lakshadweep Development Authority Regulation of 2021 (LDAR) is highly problematic and will work against existing legal provisions that safeguard the resilience of Lakshadweep's ecology, livelihood and culture, say a group of scientists from different institutions who have worked on the islands for years.

Scientists seek Indian president's intervention to withdraw proposed legislation on Lakshadweep

The coelacanth – a giant, mysterious fish from the time of the dinosaurs can live for 100 years, according to the findings of a recent study. Nicknamed “living fossil”, the coelacanth is a slow-moving fish which can grow to be the size of a human although the rate of growth is at a very slow pace.

Some environmental solutions are win-win, helping to rein in global warming and protecting biodiversity, too. But others address one crisis at the expense of the other.

Our response to climate change is missing something big, scientists say

Since the pandemic began and several countries went into repeated lockdowns, lots of people started gaining weight and consuming unhealthy food. To escape the unhealthy lifestyle, people started working out rigorously.

Late one evening in March 2020, just before the coronavirus pandemic shut down the country, Mingzheng Wu, a graduate student at Northwestern University, plopped two male mice into a cage and watched as they explored their modest new digs: sniffing, digging, fighting a little.

Scientists drove mice to bond by zapping their brains with light

Human brain is the processor of all information we throw its way. It is also single-handedly responsible for keeping the body and mind in sync. A wireless machine, it never stops crunching data and is always processing information.

Scientists tracked a thought as it moved through the brain. What did they find?

The ancient Greeks were brilliant at inventing fantastical animals like the Chimera for instance. It was a fearsome fire-breathing monster, which had a lion's head, a goat's body and a serpent's tail.

Scientists try to create world's first human-monkey Chimera, raise eyebrows  

In a remarkable milestone for genetic engineering, scientists have built a synthetic one-celled organism that can grow and divide, similar to a normal cell. This is the first time that the cell division cycle has been mimicked successfully in an artificial cell, marking a breakthrough in synthetic biology.

Scientists develop synthetic cell that grows and divides uniformly

Two positive tests at an interval of at least 102 days with one interim negative test have been defined as SARS-CoV-2 re-infection or relapse of COVID-19 by Indian scientists for establishing surveillance systems, according to a study by top medical body ICMR.

Covid-19 relapse an emerging concern, say scientists

Leading health experts from around the world have warned that mutations of the Coronavirus could render current vaccines ineffective within a year. A survey revealed that the planet has less than a year before new vaccines are needed to fight COVID-19 and its mutations.
