We have a good qualitative intuition about the concept of entropy, but its quantitative application to the quantum world is still a challenge for physicists. This article describes a framework for studying the second law of thermodynamics in...
Glucocorticoids modulate essential animal functions, including reproduction. A new study on their signaling mechanisms, specifically...
During the last years, the claim of high-performance communication systems has increased as a result of the requirements of the population for more and better connectivity options. Emerging semiconductor...
Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV-3) was discovered in 2015 in the United States of America. Since then, it has been detected worldwide in pigs with different clinical signs, as...
Electrons travelling along an electronic device produce an oscillating electric field which propagates along the device towards the metallic contacts. This phenomenon generates...
Many times the contrast level of Magnetic resonance images (MRI) is not enough for unequivocal diagnosis and, for this reason, the so-called contrast agents (CAs) are used. Rosa Ortuño, researcher at the Department of Chemistry, explains how the...
In recent years, "pay what you want" experiences have become popular around the world: a system in which consumers freely decide how much they want to pay for a product or service offered in the market (including the possibility of not...
Societies make progress. They are not static, but they change their societal ideals and the way in which their members relate to each other, both in public and in private. Joint physical custody involves...
RAWMINA H2020 project has been launched, an Integrated Innovative Pilot System For Critical Raw Materials Recovery From Mines Wastes In A Circular Economy Context. It is driven by 19 partners, with the participation of researchers from the Department of Chemistry of the...
Suicide is a serious public health problem that has increased in recent decades, and this has led to the creation of different intervention programs that aim to identify and help...
