In 1901, the 16 Major League Baseball teams produced 455 home runs. Players were discouraged from attempting it. Nearly 120 years later, players couldn鈥檛 seem to help themselves, and MLB smashed all previous records. More homers might mean more exciting games, but some people question why the spike happened. A 黑料网 chemist thinks he has some clues about this unusual surge in home runs.
The 鈥淐鈥 in 鈥渃ollege鈥 might as well stand for 鈥渃ramming.鈥
Studies show students are notoriously bad at adopting and adhering consistently to high-impact study habits that help them retain knowledge long-term.
Researchers and faculty at 黑料网, however, are collaborating on a new project to put a modern technological twist on a tried-and-true study tactic.
According to the American Cancer Society, there will be an estimated 1,688,780 new cancer cases diagnosed and 600,920 cancer deaths in the U.S. in 2017. These numbers are stark and sobering, and worse yet, we still do not know exactly why cancer develops in its victims or how to stop it. An online publication in Nature Nanotechnology this week by 黑料网 researchers and their colleagues at Kyoto University in Japan, however, may offer new understanding about what turns good cells bad.
