Teenagers want a greater voice in the design and governance of platforms such as TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, according to new research led by University College Dublin. Rather than passive victims of social media algorithms, ...
Medical Xpress / Sitting for long stretches linked to a higher risk of death from cancer
Sitting for more than 30 minutes at a time is linked to a higher risk of dying from cancer, while breaking up long sitting spells with light activity appeared to lower that risk, according to new data. But media reports on ...
Medical Xpress / Early menopause affects 1 in 14 women in low and middle income countries, pooled data reveal
Early menopause affects 1 in 14 women ages 30 to 49 living in low- and middle-income countries, according to a pooled data analysis of its prevalence in 44 nations published in the open-access journal BMJ Global Health. The ...
Phys.org / Study provides further evidence that aspen patches can mitigate wildfires
Researchers at McGill University have confirmed that aspen play a key role in forest fire prevention and mitigation across Canada. Planting these trees near communities can reduce both the likelihood and severity of fires ...
Phys.org / This year's El Nino likely to become record-breaker: Top expert
The current El Nino weather phenomenon is expected to break records for its overall strength, a top expert said Tuesday, as regions face the risk of droughts, floods and other extremes linked to the event.
Medical Xpress / Researchers chart a genetic path to diagnosing pulmonary fibrosis and predicting outcomes
Researchers have validated a genetic scoring tool that may help physicians diagnose idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and identify which patients are at greatest risk for severe outcomes, including death or the need for a lung ...
Medical Xpress / Why does Parkinson's disease affect more men than women?
New research presented at the Federation of European Neuroscience Societies (FENS) Forum 2026 has discovered some of the genetic changes in brain cells that may help explain why more men than women develop Parkinson's disease.
Phys.org / Deep learning reveals nanoparticle shape from routine tracking analysis without new hardware
Researchers at the University of Tokyo and the Innovation Center of NanoMedicine (iCONM) have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) approach that identifies the morphology of nanoparticles in liquid using data from standard ...
Medical Xpress / Novel antibody-drug conjugate eliminates residual cancer cells in majority of patients with B-cell ALL
Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center were able to eradicate measurable residual disease (MRD) in B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients, a critical step in improving long-term survival ...
Phys.org / They're here: Biologists identify first established colonies of invasive clam in northeastern US
A collaborative team of biologists led by the University of Massachusetts Amherst, MIT Sea Grant at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Center for Coastal Studies has discovered that the invasive Manila clam, ...
Phys.org / Mating strategies shape tropical plants' invasive ability
A recent study from the Center for Ecological Sciences (CES), Indian Institute of Science (IISc), has found strong evidence that a plant's ability to reproduce on its own—through self-fertilization—is one of the key traits ...
Phys.org / Using quantum entanglement to secure ground-to-satellite timing
From mobile phones and banking systems to aircraft, ships and emergency services, much of modern life relies on precise timing signals from satellites. Known as the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), satellites carrying ...
