Medical Xpress / Cancer medication helps reduce SIV reservoir, increasing hope for HIV cure
Emory University researchers have provided the first proof of concept in a nonhuman primate model for eliminating HIV-infected cells with venetoclax, a clinically approved cancer medication. Venetoclax effectively targets ...
Phys.org / A supermassive black hole erupted in X-rays, and its radio jets followed 300 days later
By combining roughly two decades of observations from NASA's Swift X-ray Telescope with radio monitoring, astronomers have caught a supermassive black hole at the heart of the Perseus Cluster suddenly flaring in X-rays, and ...
Phys.org / Satellites spot forest stress two years before bark beetle die-offs become apparent
Satellite measurements detected declining photosynthetic activity in Western U.S. forests two years before bark beetle mortality appeared in aerial detection surveys, according to new University of Utah-led research.
Medical Xpress / Pig kidney xenotransplant successfully bridges patient with end-stage kidney disease to human transplant
In January 2026, Tim Andrews, who had received a genetically edited pig kidney in January 2025, became the recipient of a human kidney. A new Mass General Brigham paper, published in The Lancet, details Andrews' experience ...
Tech Xplore / A new kind of AI that does its thinking cheaply without words
There may soon be a new kind of artificial intelligence in town, one that uses a novel approach to thinking that could save massive amounts of computing power and money.
Phys.org / Before mixing starts, initial catalyst structure governs fuel-cell ink dispersion
Researchers from Kanazawa University, the University of Tokyo and HORIBA, Ltd. have shown that the initial state of platinum-on-carbon (Pt/C) catalyst particles before they are mixed with an ionomer strongly influences how ...
Tech Xplore / Thousands of OpenAI AI agents took over German website, researchers say
Thousands of autonomous AI agents built by OpenAI defied their instructions and took over a German website, according to research released Friday, amid fears that the dangers of artificial intelligence are not being taken ...
Medical Xpress / How meal timing programs the liver's daily rhythms
Deep inside the brain, a master clock synchronizes thousands of molecular clocks scattered throughout the body, and together, they anticipate signals such as the rising sun, the coming night and the daily rhythms of life. ...
Medical Xpress / Alcohol-linked cancer's toll extends far beyond the liver, with deaths rising across age groups
A Global Burden of Disease analysis estimated that the annual number of alcohol-attributable cancer deaths in the U.S. increased from 11,361 in 1990 to 23,126 in 2023. The study also revealed that alcohol-linked cancer deaths ...
Tech Xplore / 15-minute training helps people spot AI-generated faces
Researchers at the University of Southampton have come up with a way to help people spot AI-generated faces. They've developed a short training program that improves people's ability to distinguish between real, human faces ...
Phys.org / Scottish 'pregnant grandmother' microbe bursts open after growing offspring within
Scientists have revealed a bizarre microscopic creature that reproduces in a way reminiscent of the horror film" Alien." The microbe grows one or more new cells inside its own body before the outer "mother" cell ruptures ...
Phys.org / Heat has a memory—and a new theoretical framework can track it
Heat, it turns out, has a memory. A cooling cup of coffee may not seem particularly thoughtful. At the scale of a kitchen, heat appears to follow a straightforward rule: it moves from warmer places to cooler ones. Leave the ...
