Phys.org / 'Increase' framing makes research results seem bigger and more important, experiments show
Scientific findings are in the news. They're cited on food packages and beverage labels. They are discussed in podcasts and argued over by politicians and pundits. And each finding sits within a specific frame. If researchers ...
Phys.org / Deep learning detects foodborne bacteria within three hours by eliminating debris misclassifications
Researchers have significantly enhanced an artificial intelligence tool used to rapidly detect bacterial contamination in food by eliminating misclassifications of food debris that looks like bacteria. Current methods to ...
Medical Xpress / 3D-printed brain models could improve medical research and training
University of Missouri researchers are developing new ways to better simulate the complex nature of human brain tissue. For years, scientists have worked to uncover how the brain responds to mechanical forces and electromagnetic ...
Tech Xplore / Scaling-up global solar panel manufacturing sustainably
As solar energy rapidly expands to meet urgent climate targets and increasing demand for electricity, the key challenge is to ensure that this transition is not just scalable but sustainable. Pioneering research led by Northumbria ...
Dialog / Old galaxies in a young universe?
The standard cosmological model (present-day version of "Big Bang," called Lambda-CDM) gives an age of the universe close to 13.8 billion years and much younger when we explore the universe at high-redshift. The redshift ...
Dialog / Neural crest cells: Miniature electric muscles that colonize embryonic organs
Neural crest cells are a population of stem cells that invade the embryo in early development. They play a big role in what you look like: the pigments of your eyes, of your skin, and the bone structure of your face are all ...
Medical Xpress / Discovery of unique brain tumor subtypes offers hope for targeted glioma therapies
Researchers have uncovered the mechanisms behind three unique subtypes of mismatch repair deficient high-grade gliomas. The findings provide a clearer understanding of how these tumors develop, explain why patients respond ...
Tech Xplore / A forgotten battery design from Thomas Edison—how scientists helped reimagine it
A little-known fact: In the year 1900, electric cars outnumbered gas-powered ones on the American road. The lead-acid auto battery of the time, courtesy of Thomas Edison, was expensive and had a range of only about 30 miles. ...
Medical Xpress / Combination treatment may slow disease progression in advanced sarcoma
An oral combination treatment may prevent the progression of advanced leiomyosarcoma, one of the most common subtypes of soft tissue sarcoma, according to a recent study published in The Lancet Oncology. "These findings support ...
Phys.org / Software tool can detect hidden errors in complex tissue analyses
A new software tool, ovrlpy, improves quality control in spatial transcriptomics, a key technology in biomedical research. Developed by the Berlin Institute of Health at Charité (BIH) in international collaboration, ovrlpy ...
Medical Xpress / 'Stiff' cells provide new explanation for differing symptoms in sickle cell patients
A new breakthrough study led by researchers at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities could explain why patients with the same genetic sickle cell mutation experience different levels of pain, organ damage, and response ...
Tech Xplore / Redefining GaN power devices for adoption in EVs and data centers
Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have uncovered fundamental insights into designing gallium nitride (GaN) power transistors, making them safer and easier to utilize in high-value electronics such as electric ...
