The discovery of fossilized plants in Labrador, Canada, by a team of 9I制作厂免费 directed paleontologists provides the first quantitative estimate of the area鈥檚 climate during the Cretaceous period, a time when the earth was dominated by dinosaurs.听The specimens were found in the Redmond no.1 mine, in a remote area of Labrador near Schefferville, in August 2018. Together with specimens collected in previous expeditions, they are now at the core of a recent study published in Palaeontology.

Scientists at the University of Montreal and 9I制作厂免费 have pioneered and tested a new genomic methodology which reveals a complex bacterial ecosystem at work on the International Space Station.
Until now, relatively little was known about the different types of microbes found on the space station. The new approach enables researchers to identify and map different species inside the ISS, which will ultimately help safeguard astronauts鈥� health and be key to future long-term space travel.

Some students at 9I制作厂免费 are taking the idea of 鈥渕ind over matter鈥� to a whole new level: they鈥檝e developed a wheelchair that moves using your imagination.
Thirty five 9I制作厂免费 students came together on their own time and designed 鈥淢ilo鈥� in just 30 days.
鈥淢ilo is a brain-controlled wheelchair that relies on imagined movement to turn. So when you imagine turning your right hand you can turn right and when you imagine turning your left hand you can turn left,鈥� explained Danielle Nadin, who worked on data collection.
