The authors investigate how improper disposal of medication can be mitigated through community education efforts.
Read More...The effect of microplastics on the speed, mortality rate, and swimming patterns of Daphnia Magna
In this study, the authors investigate the effects that microplastics (which pollute fresh and saltwater ecosystems) have on plankton species Daphnia Magna by measuring their movement and viability.
Read More...From Waste to Wealth: Making Millivolts from Microbes!
In this study, the authors report their successful efforts to increase voltage production in a Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC), which is a system in which microorganisms produce electricity while performing their normal metabolism.
Read More...Optimized biochemical depolymerization of plastics from surgical face masks
The authors combine chemical, enzymatic, and microbial-based methods to optimize degradation of plastics within a surgical facemask.
Read More...Linear and non-linear summation of responses to visual and olfactory cues in male Drosophila melanogaster
In this study, the authors investigate whether phototaxis and odortaxis in Drosophila melanogaster occurs through linear summation of cues including light and attractive odorants.
Read More...Variation, relationship, and trade-offs of leaf traits in large and small deciduous broadleaf tree species
The authors access a panel of leaf traits across ten deciduous tree species to explore adaptive strategies between large and small trees.

Reinforcement learning in 2-D space with varying gravitational fields
In this study the authors looked at the ability to navigate planes in space between randomly placed planets. They used machine and reinforcement learning to run simulations and found that they were able to identify optimal paths for travel. In the future these techniques may allow for safer travel in unknown spaces.
