17、ccess.CA new wave of psychological research is pioneering Virtual Reality （VR） lo treat medical conditions from social anxiety to Alzheimers disease.Riding a wave of interest in mental health tech, companies creating VR content for treatment are receiving a flood of attention and funding. And,while

26、go Kersting and Cristina Linares have found that some coral species are able to recover from harmful warming events through a unique survival strategy（策略）known as “rejuvenescence”（新生）among corals in the Mediterranean Sea. The findings represent some rare good news for corals around the world,which a

27、re facing numerous severe threatsmost notably,climate change.“The main threats are climate change, overfishing, pollution and coastal urbanization,” Kersting said. “But currently, climate change is probably the one causing the most coral cover declines. Warming stresses corals up to a point that may

28、 cause death. Some corals bleach （白化） before dying. Other corals do not bleach but die directly.” He went on, “Our findings are significant because this survival strategy was only known from fossil corals that existed hundreds of millions of years ago.

This process involves the polyps or the individual coral animals in a colonyshrinking inward and abandoning their skeletons（骨骼） during

31、 warm periods, before rejuvenating at a later point. “What happens is that some polyps in a coral colonysometimes just onereduces completely its dimensions and partially retreats from its skeleton,”Kersting said. “Once the stressful event is over, the shrunken or rejuvenated polyp recovers its size

32、and builds up a new skeleton. Eventually, it begins to reproduce itself through budding and begins to cover the deadcolony surfaces.”He continued, “The results were very surprising because I started to observe colonies that were dead years ago, that were showing living parts many years after their d
