New research describes the once-mysterious mechanisms in plants that connect leaf accumulation of γ-Aminobutyric acid, or GABA, to improved drought resistance—a finding that could inform efforts to create drought-tolerant food crops. scim.ag/6zU

The circadian clock plays a significant role in maintaining the ovarian cycle’s rhythmicity, a new study suggests. scim.ag/6z1

Neolithic murders are consistent with a tradition of ritual sacrifice spanning at least two millennia, according to a new study. scim.ag/6yJ

Engineered cells that secrete therapeutic proteins can help treat a variety of chronic diseases.

A new study demonstrates a durable encapsulation system using an oxygen-permeable cryogel skeleton for therapeutic delivery. scim.ag/6xI

Researchers have assessed how risk factors of #AlzheimersDisease , such as age and diabetes status, affect biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid. They found that these biomarkers can be used to predict risk of cognitive impairment in the elderly. scim.ag/6w0

A study published in Science Advances reveals that #PFAS re-emit into the air from crashing ocean waves at levels comparable to or greater than other sources, establishing a cyclical transport process for these 'forever chemicals' between land and sea. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

A new study indicates that Norwegian brown rats appeared in North America around the 1740s—several decades earlier than thought—and quickly outcompeted black rats, establishing ecological dominance in burgeoning urban centers. scim.ag/6vp

New research shows a significant overlap between critical mineral mining sites and high-density great ape habitats in 17 African countries, posing threats to ape survival. scim.ag/6uY

Researchers have developed an optical microscopy platform for imaging metabolic pathways and showed that tracking metabolic changes is important for comparing tumor responses to chemotherapy. Enakshi scim.ag/6uC

Finally out Science Advances! Our new paper on hydrogen chloride storage, its reactivity and electrolysis to close the chlorine cycle based on Ils. Great work Gesa Dreyhsig and Cl-Team. Perfect collaboration with the Schomäcker lab TU Berlin 🎉😉 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

How big is the threat of mining to great ape populations? This a key question given the increasing rare earth needs for the energy transition. The answer: we have a big problem looming. Our study lead by @junkerjessi is out today in Science Advances science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
