A team in Taiwan has engineered a new way for plants to absorb and use carbon dioxide, potentially reshaping the fight against climate change. By inserting an extra biochemical cycle into a model ...

A research team has proposed a new approach to improve photosynthesis by replacing the enzyme ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxidase (RuBisCO) with phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC).

Timing of exposure to a high-fat diet appears to influence food preferences and weight gain in mice and may mirror behaviors seen in humans with disrupted circadian rhythms.

A new study finds that the timing of exposure to bright light can have a significant influence on postprandial (post-meal) glucose metabolism, thermoregulation, and energy expenditure during sleep in ...

Many people have heard of the circadian rhythms or biological processes that follow a 24-hour cycle. Sleeping at night and being awake during the day is a well-known example of a circadian rhythm.

The Qatar Metabolic Institute (QMI) at Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC) officially launched Cycle II of the Certificate in Obesity ...
