The Latest Breaking News from Nature Communications

Scientists have found evidence of a sixth basic taste: umami's companion, ammonium chloride. Through a study published in Nature Communications, researchers discovered that the tongue responds to the salt through OTOP1, a protein receptor that signals sour taste. Electrical conductivity tests on taste bud cells from normal and genetically engineered…

Massive infrastructural projects aimed at mitigating drought and floods may instead worsen water stress levels, a new study in Nature Communications finds.

A new research published in Nature Communications has found that an injection of specific blood molecules can replicate the benefits of exercise in the brain, paving the way for potential new treatments for age-related cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s disease patients.

In late July, a study published in Nature Communications warned that a critical ocean system that brings warm water up the North Atlantic, also known as the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), was at risk of collapse by 2095 for want of drastic emissions cuts. While AMOC was already known…

Those following the latest developments in climate science would have been stunned by the jaw-dropping headlines last week proclaiming the “Gulf Stream could collapse as early as 2025, study suggests” — which responded to a recent publication in Nature Communications.

Amid news of lethal heatwaves across the Northern Hemisphere comes the daunting prospect of a climate disaster on an altogether grander scale. New findings published in Nature Communications suggest the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation, or Amoc, could collapse within the next few decades – maybe even within the next few…

Scientists uncovered the evolutionary history of the Arctic flora. The findings were published in the journal Nature Communications. Read further on Dynamite News:

A team from Caltech and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) has designed something that goes way beyond your typical rover, and may be the next step in robotic planetary exploration.

The research used data from football helmet sensors going back 20 years.
