Mammals, in conjunction with white fat, have a smaller amount of brown fat that regulates body temperature and is closely linked to weight loss and metabolic health. The findings, published in Nature Communications, point to a potential strategy for treating obesity that deviates from the current approach of suppressing appetite.

Unfortunately, efforts to mitigate both these issues has been hampered by missing data on how buildings currently use energy.
Semiha Ergan in NYU Tandon’s Civil and Urban Engineering (CUE) Department, is pursuing research that addresses the problem from two directions. Together with CUE Ph.D. student Heng Quan, they used machine learning to forecast building energy use, including short-term (day-ahead) predictions to support grid peak management and longer-term (monthly) projections of how climate change may affect energy demand and building-grid interactions.

- On April 3, 2026, Jonathan Lambert, a Gallatin visiting assistant professor, joined Melissa Metrick, the manager of NYU’s Urban Farm Lab, to create the first enhanced rock weathering site in New York City. To achieve this, they spread 10 pounds of volcanic rock called basalt over a soil bed at the Urban Farm Lab for carbon sequestration.
Enhanced rock weathering is the process through which basalt removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through the rocks’ chemical reaction with rainfall. The process has been used in recent years as a promising method for removing carbon emissions and Lambert will evaluate its success through monthly sampling for carbon uptake.
"This specific climate solution is usually practiced on large agricultural fields. New Yorkers, therefore, rarely get to see it in action,” says Lambert. “Our goal here is to engage the NYU and New York community with this unique site and provide a window into one of the many new methods that ...

- For years, Timothy Bromage wondered if it would be possible to collect metabolism-related molecules from fossils and study them for clues about how animals lived millions of years ago. It would be a process that he describes as similar to when your doctor analyzes a sample of your blood to gain key insights about your health.
When paleontologists learned that collagen (protein that provides structure to bones, skin, and connective tissue) is preserved in bones, Bromage suspected that metabolites (the molecules produced and used in digestion and other chemical processes in the body) might be hidden there too. He led a team of international researchers in using mass spectrometry to test the hunch by extracting and analyzing the metabolites from fossils.
They ended up being able to determine what animals ate, how they responded to diseases, and what vegetation grew where they lived with surprising precision. In a 1.8-million-year-old ground squirrel, for example,...

But in speaking with Olympic athletes, she found some surprising approaches to both completing races and to enhancing performance.
“One strategy that people think is intuitive is that when things get hard—when it starts to hurt—runners might want to distract themselves to take their mind off the pain,” she explains. “But actually, what we found in a study of elite runners and those that were training for the next marathon was that actually they don’t do that at all. Instead, it’s thinking about the how. It’s returning to thinking about ‘What are the concrete steps I need to take to move from here to there?’ That helps them push through those challenge...
