A new study by UCLA and Kaiser Permanente Northwest's Center for Health Research demonstrates a health care approach matching treatment intensity to individual risk levels can significantly reduce self-harm and depression ...
Medical Xpress / Final report casts doubt on existence of Canada mystery brain illness
A Canadian medical report published Friday found no evidence linking environmental factors to an unusual set of neurological symptoms affecting hundreds of people, a five-year saga that has shaken a small Atlantic province.
Tech Xplore / Creative talent: Has AI knocked humans out?
Are generative artificial intelligence systems such as ChatGPT truly creative? A research team led by Professor Karim Jerbi from the Department of Psychology at the Université de Montréal, and including AI pioneer Yoshua ...
Phys.org / What weather apps sometimes miss about dangerous winter storm conditions
Smartphone weather apps that summarize their forecasts with eye-popping numbers and bright icons may be handy during mild weather, but meteorologists say it's better to listen to human expertise during multi-faceted, dangerous ...
Phys.org / Too much entanglement? Quantum networks can suffer from 'selfish routing,' study shows
Quantum technologies, systems that process, transfer or store information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, could tackle some real-world problems faster and more effectively than their classical counterparts. In recent ...
Tech Xplore / Stress-testing AI vision systems: Rethinking how adversarial images are generated
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have become a cornerstone of modern AI technology, driving a thriving field of research in image-related tasks. These systems have found applications in medical diagnosis, automated data processing, ...
Medical Xpress / CAR T cells with boosted BACH2 protein can fight cancer more effectively
UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have discovered that increasing the levels of a protein called BACH2 makes engineered cancer-fighting immune cells behave more like stem cells, improving their therapeutic effectiveness. ...
Phys.org / Whales may divide resources to co-exist under pressures from climate change
The North Atlantic Ocean is warming up. Higher temperatures and increased human activity in the region can trigger abrupt changes in marine ecosystems, for example, how species are distributed and what they eat.

Challenging long-held assumptions, Aarhus University researchers have demonstrated that the protein building blocks essential for life as we know it can form readily in space. This discovery, appearing in Nature Astronomy, ...
Medical Xpress / Uncovering cancer's hidden oncRNA signatures: From discovery to liquid biopsy
After being described in 2018, researchers knew they had something interesting with T3p, a single small RNA found in breast cancer but absent from normal tissue. The molecule took the team on a six-year journey to systematically ...
Phys.org / Quantum 'alchemy' made feasible with excitons
What if you could create new materials just by shining a light at them? To most, this sounds like science fiction or alchemy, but to physicists investigating the burgeoning field of Floquet engineering, this is the goal. ...
Phys.org / Austrian cow shows first case of flexible, multi-purpose tool use in cattle
In 1982, cartoonist Gary Larson published a now-iconic "Far Side" comic titled "Cow Tools." In it, a cow stands proudly beside a jumble of bizarre, useless objects that are "tools" in name only. The joke hinged on a simple ...
