After dropping off its historic sample from asteroid Bennu, the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft is headed to its next target: another potentially hazardous near-Earth asteroid, called Apophis.
Studying a lizard species in 18 mountain ranges in southeastern Arizona, researchers found 70 years' worth of climate-related extinction occurred in only seven years.
Using machine learning, researchers found that the risk of dementia significantly increases among adults who spend over 10 hours a day engaging in sedentary behaviors like sitting.
The Service Dog and Veteran Experiences Study will look at the impact of service dogs on veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder, as well as the factors that may contribute to the success of individual animals.
The New Frontiers of Sound Science and Technology Center will focus on topological acoustics, an emerging field in which researchers exploit the properties of sound in ways that could vastly improve computing, telecommunications and sensing.
Members of NASA's UArizona-led OSIRIS-REx mission completed one last dress rehersal before the spacecraft delivers a sample from asteroid Bennu to the Utah desert on Sept. 24.
University of Arizona President Robert C. Robbins created a commission to identify solutions to the challenges facing Arizona agriculture in a rapidly changing climate. The recommendations are outlined in a new report.
When the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft delivers a sample from asteroid Bennu to Earth on Sept. 24, it will launch decades of scientific investigation. Mission principal investigator Dante Lauretta is most excited to shed light on the origins of life on Earth.
Nearly half of career firefighters report short sleep and poor sleep quality. With a $4 million grant, UArizona researchers are working to identify key factors for implementing workplace sleep coaching for firefighters.
Microbes do a lot under the soil surface that can't be seen with the naked eye, but even tiny soil microbes are feeling the stress of hotter and drier conditions. These microbes release more volatile organic compounds into the atmosphere in response to drought stress, a new study conducted at the Biosphere 2 rainforest finds.
