According to a new study by the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (ICTA-UAB), most European citizens consider economic growth a necessary condition, rather than an ...
Medical Xpress / Hybrid work improves the work experience—particularly for women
The transition to hybrid work has improved the psychosocial work environment among white-collar employees, according to new research from Umeå University. Positive effects include more accessible leadership, greater autonomy ...
Medical Xpress / Researchers call for increased screening for parasitic disease linked to HIV and cervical cancer risk
New research from Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM) has highlighted the need to test millions of women and girls for female genital schistosomiasis (FGS), a neglected disease that can increase the risk of chronic ...
Phys.org / Researchers develop a new predictive model for designing 2D perovskites
Two-dimensional (2D) perovskites are increasingly recognized as promising candidate materials for the next generation of optoelectronic devices. These materials combine key characteristics of both 2D semiconductors and three-dimensional ...
Tech Xplore / New database for subsurface energy storage could be boon for natural gas industry
Researchers at the University of Texas at Austin have produced a new analysis of underground natural gas storage sites around the country. The analysis can help guide future expansion of natural gas storage capacity, optimize ...
Phys.org / Why shorter lists win: Researchers study how people misread rankings
Math is great when it's simple, but then our brain gets involved and complicates everything. Imagine you are on the leadership team for a Big 4 and choosing between two employees for a director-level promotion. One is ranked ...
Medical Xpress / Aphantasia challenges a centuries-old theory of abstract thought

Medical Xpress / EHA: Adding Pirtobrutinib to Venetoclax-Rituximab ups progression-free survival in chronic lymphocytic leukemia
For patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), adding pirtobrutinib to venetoclax-rituximab (PVR) yields improved progression-free survival (PFS) compared to venetoclax-rituximab (VR), according ...
Medical Xpress / Two prostate cancer mutations reveal opposite responses to ferroptosis therapy
A new study by researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center has identified genetic factors that determine whether prostate cancers are susceptible to a type of cell death known as ferroptosis. These findings, ...
Phys.org / AI analysis of data from multiple sensors can improve earthquake detection
One seismometer is often not enough to reliably detect earthquakes or human activity such as underground nuclear tests. Rather, researchers combine readings from seismometers distributed across a small geographic area to ...
Phys.org / New polymer design could make everyday plastics easier to break down without losing performance
An Ehime University research team directed by H. Shimomoto and E. Ihara has developed a new molecular design strategy that imparts degradability to carbon–carbon (C–C) backbone polymers. The study, published in Macromolecules, ...
