Tech Xplore / EU hits Meta with antitrust probe over WhatsApp AI features
The EU said Thursday it had opened an antitrust probe to determine if the way Meta is rolling out AI features in WhatsApp breaches the bloc's competition rules.
Medical Xpress / One experiment, two insights: Sequencing method reveals both genome proteins and their positions
A team from the Andalusian Center for Molecular Biology and Regenerative Medicine (CABIMER) has developed an innovative technique called PLAMseq (proximity-labeled affinity-purified mass spectrometry plus sequencing) that, ...
Phys.org / A new role for DNA loops in repairing genetic damage
When DNA breaks, cells must repair it accurately to prevent harmful mutations. Researchers have discovered that during a key repair process called homologous recombination, the cell uses loops in its DNA structure to speed ...
Phys.org / Chlorine and potassium found in supernova remnant at unexpectedly high levels
"Why are we here?" is humanity's most fundamental and persistent question. Tracing the origins of the elements is a direct attempt to answer this at its deepest level. We know many elements are created inside stars and supernovae, ...
Phys.org / Fearless frogs feast on deadly hornets
A remarkable resistance to venom has been discovered in a frog that feasts on hornets despite their deadly stingers. This frog could potentially serve as a model organism for studies on mechanisms underlying venom tolerance.
Phys.org / How sound moves on Mars
Acoustic signals have been important markers during NASA's Mars missions. Measurements of sound can provide information both about Mars itself—such as turbulence in its atmosphere, changes in its temperature, and its surface ...
Medical Xpress / WHO warns of increase in malaria cases and deaths
Deaths linked to malaria last year rose last year, the World Health Organization said on Thursday, warning also of an increase in cases and resistance to current treatment.
Medical Xpress / AI method recovers missing movement data to enhance behavioral analysis
Scientists learn about the brain's inner workings by studying what animals or people do, how they move, react, and make choices. Behavior is complex, as animals and humans can move in countless different manners. Yet, neuroscience ...
Phys.org / Space debris: Will it take a catastrophe for nations to take the issue seriously?
China routinely sends astronauts to and from its space station Tiangong. A crew capsule is about to undock from the station and return to Earth, but there's nothing routine about its journey home.
Medical Xpress / Endurance athletes have a four times higher risk of irregular heartbeat, and this may be why
Exercise is one of the best things we can do for a healthy heart. Yet research shows that endurance athletes have up to a four times higher risk of atrial fibrillation (an irregular or fast heartbeat) than non-athletes. This ...
Phys.org / Sargasso Sea shift reveals dramatic decline in some historic seaweed populations
A study led by researchers at the University of South Florida's College of Marine Science has found that certain populations of the seaweed sargassum have experienced a significant decline over the past decade, even as increased ...
