A German-French team has developed a light-sensitive switch that regulates a protein implicated in the neurobiology of synaptic plasticity. The agent promises to shed new light on the phenomenology of learning, memory and neurodegeneration.

Researchers from Sweden and the USA have shown that our perception of how organic matter is broken down by fungi and bacteria are fundamentally wrong. This means that climate models that take account of microorganisms to estimate future climate change must be reassessed.

Age dating of fingerprints could have a significant impact in forensic science, as it has the potential to facilitate the judicial process by assessing the relevance of a fingerprint found at a crime scene
