Medical Xpress / Brain activity patterns may 'tag' experiences for later memory-making during sleep
The brain may "tag" experiences during learning to better consolidate memories of them during sleep, according to a study published Aug. 27 in the journal PLOS Biology by Dan Denis from the University of York, United Kingdom, ...
Phys.org / Oxygen collisions reveal how quark–gluon matter approaches equilibrium
High-energy nuclear collisions recreate extreme conditions similar to those in the early universe, producing quark–gluon plasma (QGP), a hot state of matter in which quarks and gluons are no longer confined inside protons ...
Medical Xpress / Pre-cancerous blood cells may fuel disease risk by prematurely aging the bone marrow
Precancerous blood cells can actively reshape their surroundings, prematurely aging cells in the bone marrow to create conditions that favor their own growth and potentially increase the risk of blood cancer, according to ...
Medical Xpress / Policy changes could make esketamine more affordable for treatment-resistant depression
A joint research team led by the LKS Faculty of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong (HKUMed), in collaboration with The Chinese University of Hong Kong, New York University and Newcastle University, has found that a combination ...
Medical Xpress / Internal body awareness does not predict mental health, study finds
The human brain continuously receives information from inside the body that helps detect physical needs and emotional states, such as a racing heartbeat, shortness of breath, hunger, thirst, pain and body temperature. Its ...
Phys.org / Roman telescope aims to directly image exoplanets 1,000 times fainter than current limits
The Roman Space Telescope is designed to directly image exoplanets using complex optomechanical systems developed by the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy
Medical Xpress / A Dutch institute issues a 'Red Alert' over potentially lethal Trump-shaped ecstasy pills
A Dutch drug addiction and mental health institute warned users on Friday about potentially lethal ecstasy pills shaped to look like the head of U.S. President Donald Trump.
Tech Xplore / Recycled aggregates can match structural concrete strength
A new study challenges one of the most deeply rooted assumptions in civil engineering: that using recycled materials in structural concrete inevitably means sacrificing strength. Researchers from Escuela Superior Politécnica ...
Phys.org / How bacteria develop resistance to programmable antibiotics
Antimicrobial resistance is one of the greatest challenges facing modern medicine. A new class of programmable antibiotics known as asobiotics can be used to treat bacterial infections when classical antibiotics fail. A team ...
Phys.org / Indonesia escalates battle against fires, putrid haze
Indonesia has intensified efforts to fight wildfires with cloud seeding and water bombing as thousands of people nationwide battle to breathe through smoke and haze, officials said Friday.
