Using well-established microarchaeological sampling methods, we reached a precise radiocarbon date of 800 BC for the Siloam Pool’s monumental water dam in Jerusalem. This date is a critical link ...

Longevity, measured by cohort life expectancy, has risen steadily in high-income countries since the early 1900s, raising expectations that this trend will continue. However, whether these gains will ...

This paper is a preliminary report of an investigation dealing with the inheritance of a retinal abnormality in white mice. The problem was undertaken at the suggestion of Dr. S. R. Detwiler who has ...

Two common findings from past research on sleep duration are that people who sleep too little suffer from various health consequences and that people from some cultures often have sleep durations that ...

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) represents a significant global health burden, yet effective pharmacotherapies remain elusive. The angiotensin-like 1 receptor, also known as the ...

Topological semimetals provide the opportunity to explore the fundamental physics of relativistic particles and offer the possibility of technological applications. However, finding robust systems ...
