Phys.org / Tiny fossil eggs provide first physical evidence of Cretaceous bird-like dinosaurs in Korea
A major gap in South Korea's prehistoric record has been filled with the discovery of Onggwanoolithus aphaedoensis, the first known bird-type dinosaur eggs from the Cretaceous period of South Korea. The find, which is detailed ...
Medical Xpress / Spatial mapping technique allows researchers to understand tumor architecture
Tumors contain many different types of cells organized in complex spatial patterns that can influence how the disease progresses. Because of this, it is hard to predict how a tumor will develop and respond to treatment. Researchers ...
Phys.org / Unraveling the secrets of telomerase, an enzyme linked to aging and cancer
A central question in molecular biology is how cells protect their chromosomes from damage during repeated cell division. At the heart of this protective process is an enzyme called telomerase. Now an international research ...
Tech Xplore / Thousands of websites are accidentally broadcasting sensitive data, study finds
Researchers have discovered a major security leak hiding in plain sight on the internet that could expose the personal data and financial records of millions of people. In a paper published on the arXiv preprint server, Nurullah ...
Medical Xpress / Influencers promoting prescription drugs on social media pose public health risks
In today's world, attention is increasingly focused on social media and its influencers, a shift reflected in the industry's rapid growth and a global market projected to surpass $32 billion. The marketing teams of pharmaceutical ...
Phys.org / Study in search of a tropical spring is first to show some birds flip their breeding season in response to climate
In 2014, Felicity Newell joined the Florida Museum of Natural History as a doctoral student, then promptly left the country in search of a tropical spring. It's a concept she started thinking about while doing biological ...
Phys.org / Some ticks can survive from 1 to 3 weeks on home flooring
It's fairly common for members of the public to ask bug experts if ticks that hitchhike into a house on people or dogs can actually survive indoors for any length of time. A new study provides the first scientific evidence ...
Phys.org / Dual-rail superconducting qubits generate high-fidelity logical entanglement, study finds
Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, could outperform classical computers on some advanced tasks. These systems rely on qubits, the fundamental units of quantum information, ...
Tech Xplore / New bifacial solar cells yield efficiencies above 32%
Solar cells, devices that can convert sunlight into electricity, are now widely used in many countries worldwide. Over the past few years, energy engineers have been exploring alternative designs that could further boost ...
Phys.org / Israel's 'Stonehenge' no longer stands alone: Satellite technology opens archaeological frontiers
For decades, the massive stone circles of Rujm el-Hiri in the Golan Heights were considered a singular, mysterious anomaly—often dubbed "Israel's Stonehenge." However, new research led by Ben-Gurion University of the Negev ...
Phys.org / Giant virus DNA may help polar algae survive harsh environments
In the game of survival, you can't always go it alone. Tiny algae living in the harsh conditions of the world's polar oceans appear to be better able to withstand the cold, high salinity, and extreme UV radiation, thanks ...
Phys.org / Quantum computers could have a fundamental limit after all
The performance of quantum computers could cap out after around 1,000 qubits, according to a new analysis published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Through new calculations, Tim Palmer at the University ...
