Pine bark beetles appear to be doing more than killing large swaths of forests in the Rocky Mountains. Scientists at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado, suspect that
their hunger for trees is also altering local weather patterns and air quality.

Researchers at Emory University have located a protein that might play a key role in the formation and retention of "fear" memory. The researchers removed this protein from cells and, when this was
done, their test subjects were less frightened by the same things that once gave them great fear.
