Medical Xpress / Discontinued childhood growth hormone treatment linked to rare cases of Alzheimer's
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that takes away a person's memory, thinking skills, and eventually the ability to perform basic tasks. A recent study has provided further evidence that the disease ...
Phys.org / FAST observes a peculiar rotating radio transient that also switches to pulsar states
Using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST), Chinese astronomers have explored the behavior of a rotating radio transient (RRAT) known as RRAT J1574+4703. The new observations found that this object ...
Phys.org / How we came to be: Scientists get first look at the evolution of early complex animals
Newly discovered fossils have given scientists their first real glimpse of when Earth made a crucial transition from plants and unrecognizably simple animals to the complex creatures that took over the world and would eventually ...
Phys.org / Engineering the bite of ancient marine predators
An international team of researchers, led by paleontologists of the University of Liège, has investigated the biting capabilities of extinct predatory marine reptiles, revealing how these formidable predators could coexist ...
Phys.org / Our modern vision evolved from an ancient one‑eyed worm creature
It's easy to take our eyes for granted. But our recent research shows they took an incredible evolutionary journey to reach their current familiar form.
Medical Xpress / How T cells amplify signals: New study reveals key molecular switch
Signaling is fundamental to how cells sense and respond to their environment—but in immune cells, those signals must be precisely amplified to mount an effective defense against invasive threats. New research by immunologists ...
Phys.org / Artemis II astronauts rocket toward the moon after spending a day around Earth
NASA's Artemis II astronauts fired their engines and blazed toward the moon Thursday night, breaking free of the chains that have trapped humanity in shallow laps around Earth in the decades since Apollo.
Phys.org / Study suggests people are losing 338 spoken words every year and have been for at least 15 years
In a society increasingly shaped by self-checkouts, GPS navigation and touchscreen ordering kiosks, new research shows face-to-face conversation may be quietly fading. A new study published in Perspectives on Psychological ...
Phys.org / Image: NISAR views Mount St. Helens
This image captured by U.S.-Indian Earth satellite NISAR on Nov. 10, 2025, shows Washington's Mount St. Helens. The image is cropped from a much larger swath spanning the Pacific Northwest on a cloudy day; NISAR's L-band ...
Phys.org / A rare 'triple-double' radio galaxy discovered using MeerKAT
Astronomers have discovered an exceptionally rare radio galaxy that has three distinct pairs of radio lobes. This system falls into a subpopulation of radio galaxies known as "triple-double" radio galaxies (TDRGs). Located ...
Phys.org / High-throughput platform helps engineer fast-acting covalent protein drugs
A team led by principal investigators Bobo Dang and Ting Zhou at Westlake University/Westlake Laboratory have developed a high-throughput platform for engineering fast-acting covalent protein therapeutics. Their study, titled ...
Phys.org / Framework unifies the classical and quantum Mpemba effects
Physicists have developed a new theoretical framework which unifies a wide array of seemingly unrelated "Mpemba effects": counterintuitive cases where systems driven further from equilibrium relax faster than those closer ...
