UCR astrophysicist Stephen Kane found a roiling-hot exoplanet billions of miles away that is dotted with so many volcanos that it would visibly glow in the darkness of space.
Simon Groen, assistant professor of evolutionary systems biology at UCR, says that parasitic worms in a person's brain cause more problems when they start to die than when they are alive. That’s when a lot of molecules are released from the parasite cells that trigger an innate immune response, inflammation, and neurological disorders like seizures.
Recently, cats in Texas died on a dairy farm after drinking raw milk contaminated with bird flu. Scott Pegan in UCR's School of Medicine says pasteurized milk eliminates the risk.
Recent reports of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) detecting signs of life of a distant planet outside the solar system are, unfortunately, somewhat premature. That's the conclusion of research conducted by UCR scientists Eddie Schwieterman and Shang-Min Tsai.
UCR biomedical sciences professor Scott Pegan shares his thoughts on the presence of the bird flu virus in pasteurized milk and whether drinking it poses any threat.
UCR astrophysicist Stephen Kane was the lead author of a new paper that argues Venus is crucial to understanding earth-mass and earth-like planets circling other stars.
