Medical Xpress / Heated yoga can ease depressive symptoms, the more you go the better you feel
Heated yoga, or hot yoga, is practiced in a room heated to 32–40°C (90–105°F) and has gained popularity in recent years. The warmth helps loosen your muscles, making it easier to stretch and increasing workout intensity. ...
Tech Xplore / New spinning drone hides in plain sight: 'Phantom Twist' harnesses motion blur to nearly vanish in flight
By exploiting the quirks of human vision, Northwestern University engineers have designed a drone that nearly disappears before the eyes. For years, researchers have tried to design invisible drones and robots using camouflage, ...
Tech Xplore / Turning pulp mills into next-generation biorefineries
Georgia's $41 billion forest products industry needs a transformation, and a Georgia Tech research team is reimagining how pulp mills use energy and what they can make from their byproduct streams. For nearly a decade, Sankar ...
Phys.org / Australia's most diverse marsupial predators have been hiding their origins for millions of years
When you think of carnivorous marsupials, you probably picture the Tasmanian devil or perhaps a spotted-tailed quoll. But these famous predators are only the largest members of a remarkable family of marsupials called dasyurids.
Medical Xpress / Cutting-edge drug shows promise for patients with NRAS-driven melanoma
A research team from Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah (the U) reports that a pathway-targeted therapy could be an effective treatment for certain melanoma patients and fill an unmet clinical need for patients ...
Phys.org / Prototype bicycle tire uses silk to outperform nylon in strength and endurance
Researchers in Thailand have developed a prototype high-performance bicycle tire that replaces conventional nylon fabric reinforcement with natural silk. The team combined laboratory-scale material testing with pilot-scale ...
Phys.org / DNA origami turns secret messages into nano–Morse code that acts as multiplayer molecular encryption
Mathematics has always been at the core of securing information. From online banking to government communications, modern society relies on cryptography, in which complex mathematical algorithms transform readable information ...
Phys.org / Webb telescope discovers hidden planet in famous star system
Astronomers using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope have discovered a giant planet outside our solar system, called an exoplanet, hiding within one of the most intensely studied planetary systems in the Milky Way galaxy.
Phys.org / Canadian wildfire smoke linked to fewer bird sightings in New York State
Despite burning hundreds of miles away, Canadian wildfires have become a familiar source of disruption in New York state.
Medical Xpress / New mechanism explains how spinal stimulation improves arm movement after stroke
Researchers in the Neuromechatronics Lab at Carnegie Mellon University have already proven that spinal cord stimulation can help people regain movement after stroke, but until now they didn't quite know how.
Phys.org / A new 'library' for Feynman integrals
Theoretical physicists at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) have developed a new method of ordering Feynman integrals. This critical step in making theoretical predictions for high-energy precision measurements has ...
Medical Xpress / Extra SORLA protein shields brain connections from tau tangles in mouse models
Alzheimer's disease and many other forms of neurodegeneration share a common culprit. In these diseases, tau proteins that normally stabilize neuronal microtubule filaments within our nervous system networks instead form ...
