Immune cells in and around the white patches that grow in the oral cavity of tobacco users, behave differently.
The amount of immune cells inside the tumours can indicate if patients will benefit from immunotherapy.

Many of the estimated 14-30 million insect species are undocumented.
A new framework can identify factors contributing to this tropical insect data gap and help devise better conservation plans.

Delhi’s winter air pollution persists beyond stubble burning, with a mix of emissions and stagnant weather contributing to poor air quality.
Fine-particle concentrations rose nearly fourfold during the crop-burning season.

A microscopic motor built from a screw-shaped helicene molecule that rotates like an ancient water pump powered by electricity.
With this, researchers provide a prototype for a predictable mechanical torque at the atomic scale.

A dying star can turn into a white dwarf depending on whether or not it breaches the Chandrasekhar limit — 1.4 times the mass of the Sun.
Researchers now model how 'Super-Chandrasekhar' white dwarfs evolve.

In glaciated upper Indus basin, CO₂ released by oxidising pyrite in rocks outweighs the CO₂ locked away by silicate weathering. These fast-eroding Himalayan catchments act as a net carbon source rather than carbon sink.

Fruit flies that evolved over 120 generations on low-protein diets reproduced and laid more eggs early in adult life. But these flies, especially females, were less likely to survive bacterial infections than normal flies.

Textile industries use large quantities of synthetic dyes that are difficult to remove from wastewater and can pose health risks.
Researchers at the @IITGuwahati and @IITBHU_Varanasi find a potential and scalable eco-friendly solution.
