Medical Xpress / Simple method can enable early detection and prevention of chronic kidney disease
Subtle abnormalities in kidney function—even within the range considered normal—may help identify people at risk of developing chronic kidney disease. This is shown in a new study from Karolinska Institutet, published ...
Medical Xpress / What a study of 67,000 people reveals about sexual desire and age
Sexual desire is a fundamental part of being human and a driving force in many relationships, yet we still don't fully understand why it varies so much from person to person.
Phys.org / From freezer to fork: New thawing method could deliver 'dock-fresh' fish anywhere
A small revolution is happening in the fishing industry. Freshly frozen fish can now be thawed in a new way, and that means you will have access to super-fresh food from the sea—even if you live thousands of miles away.
Phys.org / Wormholes may not exist—we've found they reveal something deeper about time and the universe
Wormholes are often imagined as tunnels through space or time—shortcuts across the universe. But this image rests on a misunderstanding of work by physicists Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen.
Phys.org / Antarctic submillimeter telescope enables more complete view of the carbon cycle in star-forming regions
Chinese researchers have braved the cold and harsh environment of Antarctica in order to get a unique view of star formation in the interstellar medium (ISM). The Chinese National Antarctica and Arctic Research Expedition ...
Medical Xpress / Parenthood 'inoculates' adults against disgust, new study reveals
From diaper changes to nursing care, exposure to unpleasant substances is a daily reality for millions of people, but how does the brain adapt? New research from neuroscientists at the University of Bristol reveals that repeated, ...
Phys.org / Ancient Type II supernova discovered from universe's first billion years
Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), an international team of astronomers has discovered a new Type II supernova. The newly detected supernova, named SN Eos, exploded when the universe was only 1 billion years old. ...
Phys.org / Construction emissions are higher than thought—but the solution isn't building less, new study finds
Many cities are making great strides in the fight against climate change, such as improving building energy efficiency, reducing traffic congestion and switching to renewable power sources. But there is another often overlooked ...
Phys.org / Perovskite display technology demonstrates record efficiency and industry-level operational lifetime
A research team has developed a hierarchical-shell perovskite nanocrystal technology that simultaneously overcomes the long-standing instability of metal-halide perovskite emitters while achieving record-breaking quantum ...
Tech Xplore / Sub-zero green freezer achieves zero emissions
Researchers at the School of Engineering of The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have developed the world's first sub-zero Celsius elastocaloric freezing device, capable of reaching temperatures as low ...
Phys.org / New spectroscopic method reveals ion's complex nuclear structure
Different atoms and ions possess characteristic energy levels. Like a fingerprint, they are unique for each species. Among them, the atomic ion 173Yb+ has attracted growing interest because of its particularly rich energy ...
