INSIDE YELLOWSTONE'S PLUMBING

This week's NSF Science 360 highlights include a new model explaining how malaria affects red blood cells, making them stiffer and harder to pass through blood vessels. Researchers aim to develop treatments to soften these cells. Additionally, scientists are using graphene sheets to better mimic the human body's environment for cell culturing, potentially aiding drug testing and implantable tissue scaffolds. A significant discovery at Yellowstone reveals a large magma reservoir, but it doesn't increase eruption risk. For more science news, visit Science 360 online.
