Tech Xplore / The sky is full of secrets: Glaring vulnerabilities discovered in satellite communications
With $800 of off‐the‐shelf equipment and months' worth of patience, a team of U.S. computer scientists set out to find out how well geostationary satellite communications are encrypted. And what they found was shocking.
Phys.org / The future of Antarctic life: Scientists map out five scenarios as climate and human pressures mount
A team of scientists has overcome a major challenge in predicting how Antarctic life will fare under future climate scenarios, revealing five scenarios for the future of Antarctic life.
Medical Xpress / Blood test can identify cancer in patients with non-specific symptoms
A simple blood test can help detect cancer in patients with non-specific symptoms such as fatigue, pain or weight loss. This is according to a Swedish study from Karolinska Institutet, Danderyd Hospital and others, published ...
Medical Xpress / Memory justifications remain surprisingly stable even as memories fade over time, study shows
While memories may fade with time, the explanations people give for why they remember an event remain surprisingly stable and reliable, according to a new study by Ben-Gurion University of the Negev.
Phys.org / Sweet signals: Tracking crucial cell messengers for the first time
Complex sugar-protein molecules that sense external messages to help a cell grow or respond to its environment can now be tracked and analyzed, using a Nobel Prize-winning chemistry technique.
Tech Xplore / A geometric twist boosts the power of robotic textiles
By rethinking how thin metal threads are woven into a flexible textile, EPFL researchers have created a lightweight fabric capable of lifting over 400 times its own weight. The work advances the development of wearables that ...
Phys.org / Women treat AI with greater skepticism than men do, study suggests
Women perceive artificial intelligence (AI) as riskier than men do, according to a study. Beatrice Magistro and colleagues hypothesized that women are both more exposed to risk from AI and are more averse to risk in general ...
Medical Xpress / Air pollution may increase the risk of the neurodegenerative disease ALS
Prolonged exposure to air pollution can be linked to an elevated risk for serious neurodegenerative diseases like ALS and seems to speed up the pathological process, report researchers from Karolinska Institutet in Sweden. ...
Medical Xpress / Noninvasive brain scanning could send signals to paralyzed limbs
People with spinal cord injuries often lose some or all their limb function. In most patients, the nerves in their limbs work fine, and the neurons in their brain are still operational, but the damage to their spinal cords ...
Phys.org / New AI tool removes bottleneck in animal movement analysis
Researchers from the University of St Andrews have developed an AI tool that reads animal movement from video and turns it into clear, human-readable descriptions, making behavioral analysis faster, cheaper, and scalable ...
Medical Xpress / Routine eye screening provides a window to heart health in type 2 diabetes
Recent findings have shown that routine eye screening could also be used for early detection of underlying heart disease in people with type 2 diabetes.
Phys.org / Innovations in spatial imaging could unlock higher wheat yields
Researchers at the John Innes Center and the Earlham Institute are pioneering powerful single-cell visualization techniques that could unlock higher yields of global wheat.
