Phys.org / Melting glaciers may mix up waters more than we thought
As marine-terminating glaciers melt, the resulting freshwater is released at the seafloor, which mixes with salty seawater and influences circulation patterns. As the oceans warm, it's growing increasingly important to study ...
Medical Xpress / Blocking key enzyme to protect against fatty liver may raise cancer risk instead
Scientists have discovered that blocking a key cellular enzyme thought to protect against fatty liver disease may instead increase the risk of chronic liver damage and cancer as we age.
Medical Xpress / New combination therapy developed for frequent form of lung cancer
A research team at the Medical University of Vienna has discovered a new approach to treating a particularly frequent and difficult-to-treat form of lung cancer. The study shows that a combination of two well-studied classes ...
Tech Xplore / Adaptive motion system helps robots achieve human-like dexterity with minimal data
Despite rapid robotic automation advancements, most systems struggle to adapt their pre-trained movements to dynamic environments with objects of varying stiffness or weight. To tackle this challenge, researchers from Japan ...
Phys.org / Organisms in the Atacama Desert soil are remarkably diverse, study shows
A new study shows that resilient and remarkably diverse populations of organisms can persist in the soil despite harsh and extremely dry conditions. An international team led by researchers from the University of Cologne, ...
Phys.org / Taming heat: Novel solution enables unprecedented control of heat conduction
Prof. Gal Shmuel of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the Technion—Israel Institute of Technology has developed an innovative approach that enables precise control of heat conduction in ways that do not occur naturally.
Medical Xpress / When a virus releases the immune brake: New evidence on the onset of multiple sclerosis
Autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis arise when the immune system turns against the body itself. Yet for most of them, it remains unclear why this process begins. Researchers have now identified how the Epstein-Barr ...
Medical Xpress / AI advice matches physician recommendations in early-stage liver cancer, but falls short in late stage
Large language models (LLM) can generate treatment recommendations for straightforward cases of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that align with clinical guidelines but fall short in more complex cases, according to a new study ...
Phys.org / The orbiting factories of the future
Imagine a fully automated 3D printer suspended in midair, churning out crucial components for use at home and abroad.
Phys.org / Marine sediments suggest glaciers retreated in sync across both hemispheres
An international team of scientists has uncovered evidence glaciers in the Southern and Northern hemispheres were synchronous during the last ice age.
Tech Xplore / AI 'CHEF' could help those with cognitive declines complete home tasks
In the United States, 11% of adults over age 45 self-report some cognitive decline, which may impact their ability to care for themselves and perform tasks such as cooking or paying bills. A team of Washington University ...
Tech Xplore / What can technology do to stop AI-generated sexualized images?
The global outcry over the sexualization and nudification of photographs—including of children—by Grok, the chatbot developed by Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company xAI, has led to urgent discussions about how ...
