Phys.org / How you can stop your cat from bringing home unwelcome pathogens
Pets form an important part of many people's lives, providing meaningful companionship. However, our pets can sometimes also be a source of unwelcome pathogens and diseases, particularly if they frequently roam outdoors.
Medical Xpress / Parkinson's medication shows promise in treating treatment-resistant depression
For many people who suffer from depression, the condition is not just about feeling down but also about a loss of motivation and difficulty finding pleasure in activities they used to enjoy. A new study conducted in Sweden ...
Medical Xpress / Brain-like organoids reveal how Ebola persists and spreads for 120 days
Following infection, the Ebola virus can survive unnoticed in the human body for months or even years, hiding in areas with little immune surveillance like the central nervous system. The danger is that those affected may ...
Phys.org / Majorana modes withstand disorder in atomic chains, boosting fault-tolerant quantum computing
Quantum computers—systems that process information and perform computations by leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics—could solve some tasks faster and more effectively than classical computers. While some studies ...
Phys.org / One photon, two reactions—new catalyst converts CO₂ and biowaste simultaneously
Researchers have developed a solar-driven catalyst material that harnesses the energy of a single photon to reduce carbon dioxide and oxidize organic waste at the same time, producing valuable chemicals in both reactions.
Phys.org / First global map of mycorrhizal fungi reveals true scale of underground networks across the planet
Mycorrhizal fungi form underground networks that sustain plant life and help regulate Earth's climate by drawing carbon into soils. In a study published in Science, an international team of researchers produced the first ...
Medical Xpress / Testosterone alone is not a replacement for lifestyle changes in older men at risk of type 2 diabetes, new study shows
Testosterone treatment may improve body composition, glucose metabolism and sexual desire in some older men at high risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D), but the benefits require engagement in a lifestyle program, according to a ...
Medical Xpress / Phthalate exposure in early life may lead to anxiety, rat study suggests
Male rats exposed to the widely used plasticizer di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) during early development exhibited increased anxiety behavior as adults, according to a study presented at ENDO 2026, the Endocrine Society's ...

Archaeologists excavating Maya sites at Kaxil Uinik and Ayiin Winik in Belize have discovered the first reported Late Postclassic altar in the region, along with additional evidence that Postclassic Maya people continued ...
Science X / Will Earth truly cool down after net-zero, or are we locked into millennia of Anthropocene heat?
We imagine that if global emissions are reduced, the problem will sort itself out. It actually takes much more time than we can imagine—sometimes hundreds or even thousands of years. We have entered a very crucial stage called ...
Tech Xplore / Monolayer WSe₂ unlocks high-performance p-type transistors that could change how future chips balance speed and power
Transistors, small devices that can amplify or switch electrical signals, are central components of all modern computer chips and digital devices. There are two main types of transistors, known as n-type and p-type transistors.
