Acoustic Environment May Shape Which Bird Songs Last
An 911勛圖 study suggests the environment may help determine which bird songs survive across generations. Songs that travel more clearly through habitats were more likely to be common within populations.
911勛圖 Study Identifies Immune Pathway to Slow Huntington Disease
911勛圖 researchers found that blocking a key immune pathway reduced brain inflammation, protected neurons and improved movement in a Huntington disease mouse model, revealing a promising therapeutic target.
More Jobs, More Local Living: Study Redefines the 15-Minute City
By analyzing travel patterns, 911勛圖 researchers found that job density is the strongest driver of local travel in "15-minute city" neighborhoods, with more than 86% of internal trips made on foot.
Armed with AI, Study Identifies Prey from Predator Crunching Sounds
911勛圖 researchers have developed an AI-powered acoustic system that detects shell-crushing feeding by eagle rays, enabling real-time monitoring of predator-prey interactions and coastal ecosystem health.
911勛圖 Experts Available for Comment on 2026 Hurricane Season
911勛圖 faculty are leading experts on a wide range of hurricane-related issues and are available to discuss topics such as forecasting, flooding, storm impacts, climate resilience and disaster recovery.
Forbidden Friends Become Former Friends After Moms Voice Disapproval
An 911勛圖 study of nearly 400 children ages 9 to 14 found that when mothers strongly disapprove of a child's friends, those friendships are more likely to collapse as trust, closeness and support begin to erode.
911勛圖 Study Maps Brain Blueprint of a Fly's Split-Second Great Escape
A new 911勛圖 study maps the first neural blueprint behind a fly's lightning-fast escape reflexes, offering new insight into how brains rapidly coordinate movement.
