Phys.org / Implantable sensor uses engineered bacteria for wireless molecular tracking
Scientists from Turkey have designed a next-generation implantable biosensor using genetically engineered E. coli for molecular-level monitoring within the body that runs on its own, wirelessly, with no external batteries ...
Medical Xpress / Ozempic can reduce metabolic risks in schizophrenia patients, multicenter study finds
Semaglutide medications like Ozempic and Wegovy can help lower the risk of heart and metabolic diseases in people with schizophrenia spectrum disorders, according to a study published in JAMA Psychiatry.
Phys.org / First Andean trophy head with cleft lip/palate identified from southern Peru
In a recent study, Dr. Beth Scaffidi analyzed the images of a unique trophy head from southern Peru. The study diagnosed the individual as having had a cleft lip/palate (CLP), making him the first case of an Andean trophy ...
Tech Xplore / Speech-to-reality system creates objects on demand using AI and robotics
Generative AI and robotics are moving us ever closer to the day when we can ask for an object and have it created within a few minutes. In fact, MIT researchers have developed a speech-to-reality system, an AI-driven workflow ...
Phys.org / Peculiar supernova SN 2021ukt transitions from Type IIn to Type Ib
Astronomers from the University of California (UC), Berkeley and elsewhere have performed spectroscopic and photometric study of a peculiar supernova designated SN 2021ukt, which underwent a transition from Type IIn to Type ...
Medical Xpress / Rethinking long-term allergy treatments: Experimental vaccine protects against anaphylaxis in mice
Researchers led by the Institut Pasteur, Université Paris, have developed a vaccine that elicits anti-Immunoglobulin E antibodies in humanized mice, protects against Immunoglobulin E-mediated anaphylaxis, and shows no detectable ...
Phys.org / Unexpected protein fold links bacteria, viruses, and eukaryotes in DNA management
An investigation into cellular components in bacteria has unexpectedly uncovered a feature with relevance across many life forms, paving the way for diverse research, biotechnical and medical applications.
Medical Xpress / How your brain understands language may be more like AI than previously thought
A new study reveals that the human brain processes spoken language in a sequence that closely mirrors the layered architecture of advanced AI language models. Using electrocorticography data from participants listening to ...
Phys.org / Temporary carbon removals can offset methane's short-term warming impact
Carbon removal projects could prove vital in offsetting methane emissions—the second largest contributor to global warming.
Phys.org / Hydrogel switches from liquid to gel at body temperature, enabling easy removal
What if a doctor could inject an electricity-conducting liquid into the body, let it temporarily solidify to record nerve signals or jump-start healing, and then return it to liquid form for easy removal?
Phys.org / When companies 'go green,' air quality impacts can vary dramatically
Many organizations are taking actions to shrink their carbon footprint, such as purchasing electricity from renewable sources or reducing air travel. Both actions would cut greenhouse gas emissions, but which offers greater ...
Phys.org / Observing ultrafast magnetic domain changes at the nanoscale with soft X-rays
Scientists at the Max Born Institute have developed a new soft X-ray instrument that can reveal dynamics of magnetic domains on nanometer length and picosecond time scales. By bringing capabilities once exclusive to X-ray ...
