Spintronics research shows material's magnetic properties can predict how a spin current changes with temperature

Phys.org— Spintronics is a field garnering immense attention for its range of potential advantages for conventional electronics. These include reducing power consumption, high-speed operation, non-volatility, and the potential for new functionalities.

Phys.org—Can climate change accelerate transmission of malaria? New research sheds light on impacts of temperature. Malaria is a mosquito-borne disease caused by a parasite that spreads from bites of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. If left untreated in humans, malaria can cause severe symptoms, health complications and even death.

Phys.org—Archaea can be 'picky eaters': Study shows a group of parasitic microbes can change host metabolism. A parasite that not only feeds off its host, but also makes the host change its own metabolism and thus biology: NIOZ microbiologists Su Ding and Joshua Hamm, Nicole Bale, Jaap Damsté and Anja Spang have shown this for the very first time in a specific group of parasitic microbes called DPANN archaea. Their study, published in Nature Communications, shows that these archaea are very "picky eaters," which might drive their hosts to change the menu.
