An international team of archaeologists compiles recent research on the reconstruction of prehistoric technologies
Both tools have been found during this field-season at Unit TD08, and they are around 600,000 years old, a time characterized in Europe by a striking scarcity of human presence
The work is published in a scientific article led by Gizéh Rangel-de Lázaro of the Natural History Museum in London and an associated researcher of the IPHES-URV
It lived around 2.6 million years ago and was significantly larger than the extant members of the genus Golunda
The combination of two techniques allows the in-depth analysis of the composition of insect dust which is increasingly sold as a dietary ingredient
URV researchers are taking part in a pioneering study that analyses the behavioural and molecular effects in the short, medium and long term resulting from exposure to chlorpyrifos, which may be related to hyperactivity, autism and addictions
These installations centralize large scale heating and the production of hot water. One study led by researchers from the URV has created a diagnostic tool that uses artificial intelligence to demonstrate the feasibility of these systems
URV researchers have developed a nanometric-scale theoretical model to create structures that kill bacteria by using elastic forces. The results of this study pave the way to creating new antibacterial materials
Large scale testing of the device is underway; in only 15 minutes and with just a single pinprick of blood it can determine with 100% reliability if a person has the disease or if they have developed antibodies to it
