Medical Xpress / Phage therapy case reveals hidden antibodies can block treatment of drug-resistant infections
A new treatment for patients with life-threatening infectious diseases is being pioneered in Melbourne by researchers at The Alfred and Monash University. VICPhage, a clinical partnership between The Alfred and Monash, is ...
Medical Xpress / A blueprint for holistic cardiovascular implantable electronic device lead management and lifelong patient safety
New evidence on cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIED) lead management and the burgeoning development of new CIED technologies have contributed to the field's rapid evolution in the last decade. The new "2026 ...
Phys.org / New study reveals how video games support children's well-being
A study published this month in Reading Research Quarterly is challenging the long-held stereotype of the sedentary gamer. In their new paper, Dr. Fiona Scott, Dr. Liz Chesworth, Dr. Cath Bannister, Daniel Kuria, Shabana ...
Phys.org / Chernobyl's exclusion zone is a beacon of biodiversity—but it faces new threats from Russia's invasion
April 26 marks the 40th anniversary of the explosion at Reactor 4 of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine. The accident caused the largest ever release of radioactive material into the environment, and at the time ...
Phys.org / Neutrinos caught on camera: Testing the first prototype of a new elementary particle detector
Some innovations in physics come from entirely new technologies, others from fresh theoretical insights. Others still take shape by bringing together existing tools in new ways, working out how to combine them to outperform ...
Science X / Plato aces space-like tests, keeping hunt for Earth-like worlds on track
The European Space Agency Plato mission has successfully completed a series of tough tests under space-like conditions. With this accomplishment, the spacecraft is on track to lift off in early 2027 and begin its search for ...
Phys.org / Bipartisan-cited science is rarely used by policymakers, study finds
Past research has shown that even though science is commonly viewed as essential for effective policymaking, Democrats and Republicans cite different scientific research when creating policy—even when addressing the same ...
Phys.org / High-resolution imaging shines light on nanoscale nuclear organization
Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have implemented an advanced microscopy technique to visualize multiple biomolecules inside the nucleus of a cancer cell simultaneously at incredibly high resolution. ...
Medical Xpress / Protein's second role in inflammation could reshape treatment for Crohn's, arthritis and heart disease
A protein long understood to drive inflammation by producing nitric oxide has a second, previously unknown role—it physically binds to another key protein inside cells to directly modulate the immune response. The discovery, ...
Medical Xpress / Whole-body ultrasound captures full cross-sections in 10 seconds, early tests show
Ultrasounds are a critical part of modern health care, helping to image soft tissue and organs, measure blood flow, and monitor fetal development. But the technique has constraints, including a limited field of view and the ...
Phys.org / Carbon nanotubes are closing the gap on copper conductivity
Carbon nanotubes are one technology that many observers believe hasn't quite lived up to the extreme hype that surrounded them when they first appeared on the scene in the late 1990s. At that time, much was made of their ...
Phys.org / Simplifying clean hydrogen production with a new all-in-one photocatalytic cocatalyst
Researchers have demonstrated the first "all-in-one" cocatalyst for photocatalytic overall water splitting, a breakthrough that could simplify the production of clean hydrogen fuel. The discovery marks an important step toward ...
