Refugees provided with targeted support outside of designated camps have a better chance of finding jobs, economic stability and safety.
Medical Xpress / European women's lung cancer mortality rates predicted to level off by 2026
After increasing for more than 25 years, lung cancer death rates are finally leveling off among women in European Union (EU) countries apart from Spain, according to predictions of mortality rates from the disease for 2026.
Phys.org / Experiments bring Enceladus' subsurface ocean into the lab
Through new experiments, researchers in Japan and Germany have recreated the chemical conditions found in the subsurface ocean of Saturn's moon, Enceladus. Published in Icarus, the results show that these conditions can readily ...
Tech Xplore / New memristor training method slashes AI energy use by six orders of magnitude
In a Nature Communications study, researchers from China have developed an error-aware probabilistic update (EaPU) method that aligns memristor hardware's noisy updates with neural network training, slashing energy use by ...
Phys.org / Scientists design artificial pain receptor that senses pain intensity and self-heals
All over the body are tiny sensors called nociceptors whose job is to spot potentially harmful stimuli and send warning signals to the brain and spinal cord, helping protect us from injury or tissue damage.
Phys.org / Two harmful gene variants can restore function when combined, study reveals
Sometimes, in genetics, two wrongs do make a right. A research team has recently shown that two harmful genetic variants, when occurring together in a gene, can restore function—proving a decades-old hypothesis originally ...
Phys.org / How to prevent charge buildup in a lunar rover
As they roll across shadowed regions of the moon's surface, future lunar rovers could develop hazardous buildups of electric charge on their wheels. Through new analysis published in Advances in Space Research, Bill Farrell ...
Medical Xpress / A new robotic system could perform delicate eye surgery
Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is a severe disease that occurs when a vein in the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye (i.e., the retina) becomes blocked, which results in a loss of vision. There are currently a few ...
Phys.org / New class of strong magnets uses earth-abundant elements, avoids rare-earth metals
Georgetown University researchers have discovered a new class of strong magnets that do not rely on rare-earth or precious metals—a breakthrough that could significantly advance clean energy technologies and consumer electronics ...
Phys.org / Q&A: An ice core library in Antarctica may save humanity's climate memory
On Wednesday, January 14, 2026, the coolest library on Earth was inaugurated at the Concordia station, Antarctica. Samples from glaciers rescued worldwide are now beginning to be stored there for safekeeping. This will allow, ...
Medical Xpress / A 'recipe book' for reprogramming cells into disease-fighting immune cells
In order to reprogram readily available cells into specific immune cells that fight various diseases, one must know the "recipe" for the transformation. Researchers at Lund University have now created a library of the 400 ...
Medical Xpress / Structure-based RNA could lead to treatment for neuromuscular disorders
Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University have discovered a way to target RNA that could lead to new treatment options for myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the most common adult-onset form of muscular dystrophy, and other ...
