In direct conflict with the current prevailing theory used to describe the Universe, a new study suggests that at the center of spiral galaxies there is a vast spherical region made up of dark matter particles where a direct interaction...
The two projects are ARGOS, led by Gianluigi Rozza, and “Stripe-o-Morph”, led by Antonio De Simone. Worth €150,000 each, this top-up funding will help them bridge the gap between the results of their pioneering research and the early phases of its commercialisation...
Diatoms, single-celled algae typically enshrined in a siliceous cell wall, generally act as opportunistic organisms, reproducing uncontrollably in the presence of favorable conditions, but are also able to make altruistic decisions acting for the good of the community ...
