There is no news in the scientific community today. Maybe this is the biggest news.
If a scientific study brings new discoveries, then its value is self-evident. However, behind these glamorous studies, many studies that have not found significant results are slightly lonely and do not even get the opportunity to be published, although they are also of great value to the development of science. With the joint efforts of scientists and the academic publishing community, this situation is changing.

The Odyssey of the Mobro 4000
On March 22, 1987, the Mobro 4000 set out on one of the more idiotic quests in human history. This story of real-life futility illustrates how little we understand ourselves and how that ignorance can lead to costly decisions.

American Anthropological Association releases Anthropology and Climate change report
On March 4, 2015, the American Anthropological Association (American Anthropological Association, AAA) released a report entitled "changing atmosphere: anthropology and Climate change" (Changing the Atmosphere: Anthropology and Climate Change), which provides a guide to anthropological climate change research. It focuses on the promotion of human activities to climate change, the experience of human adaptation to climate change, the evaluation of "global-regional-local-community" spatial scales to study the adaptability and vulnerability of climate change, and the importance of community research. the necessity of interdisciplinary research and so on. From the point of view of anthropology, eight viewpoints are put forward to understand the impact of climate change:

Canadian scholars jointly put forward proposals for climate change action to the government
In March 2015, the Sustainable Canada Dialogue (Sustainable Canada Dialogues,SCD) released a report entitled "Climate change Action: solutions for Canadian Scholars" (Acting on Climate Change: Solutions from Canadian Scholars), which pointed out that thanks to abundant renewable energy, Canada can fully achieve renewable energy generation by 2035 and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 80 per cent by 2050. The report identifies ten policy directions that can be taken immediately to promote the necessary transformation of Canada's low-carbon economy and sustainable society:

It rains only one day a year at night, but that's not all the wonder of the planet.
WASP-121b is probably the most thoroughly studied exoplanet. It was discovered in 2015, with a mass of 1.18 times that of Jupiter, a radius of 1.81 times that of Jupiter, and an orbit period of 30.6 hours. In 2017, astronomers even found water in its stratosphere. Today, abnormal data in spectral analysis show that the planet will even rain gems.

Where does time and space come from? Immunological IMMUNOLOGY When the vaccine is "ineffective" In this epidemic, organ transplant recipients and people with low immunity are faced with a dilemma: the first shot of the vaccine is ineffective, the second dose is effective, but does not provide adequate protection. Because the immune system is damaged or suppressed by drugs, they are unable to produce enough antibodies under the stimulation of the vaccine. Therefore, no matter how effective the vaccine is, it is difficult to help them. But the dilemma is not unsolved, and scientists are working with patients to try different solutions. For example, multiple vaccinations, optimized vaccination strategies, or the use of special antibodies.

How toxic is nail polish? its ingredient is harmful to reproductive health, but it has been ignored by us.
. How much "poison" does it take to get a manicure? In the new study, led by Canadian scholars, 45 manicurists in Toronto, Canada, were observed, and the researchers placed three kinds of air sampling devices on their shoulders, chest and wrists: an active sampler with an air pump, placed on the manicurist's left shoulder, and two passive samplers made into badges and wristbands, with badges on the right and wristbands on their habitual hands. Within an average of eight hours of sampling time, air samples from the main breathing areas of the manicurists at work and the forefront of exposure to manicure products-the hand area-were brought into the laboratory to be tested by scientists, targeting plasticizers such as phthalates (phthalates) and organophosphates (organophosphate esters) that manicurists may be exposed to. In recent years, more and more evidence shows that they are endocrine disruptors, which will affect human reproductive health and fetal neural development.

Aphids' Damage To Plants
In temperate regions, aphids are among the most harmful pests to cultivated plants. Many farmers are afraid of them since they can make plants yellow, have mottled leaves, develop slowly, have curled leaves, produce meager yields, or even die.
