Researchers at the University of Granada have revealed that the Nutri-Score labeling system, commonly used in Europe to assess food quality, is unable to adequately reflect the nutritional and metabolic complexity of soluble ...
Phys.org / Quantum algorithm beats classical tools on complement sampling tasks
Quantum computers—devices that process information using quantum mechanical effects—have long been expected to outperform classical systems on certain tasks. Over the past few decades, researchers have worked to rigorously ...
Phys.org / Integrating genomics insights with game theory
The Microbiology Society's Microbiology Outlooks, launched in 2025, has published its inaugural article: "When Theory Meets Genomics: Reconciling Game Dynamics and Within-Host Evolution." The new commentary explores how theoretical ...
Tech Xplore / 'Solar battery' stores sunlight for days, then releases hydrogen on demand
A new material can store energy from sunlight and convert it into hydrogen days later. The material, jointly developed by researchers from Ulm and Jena, can do this even in the dark. The process is reversible and can be reactivated ...
Tech Xplore / Designing the heart of hydrogen cars: AI points to zinc as key for stable fuel cell catalysts
In the era of climate crisis, hydrogen vehicles are emerging as an alternative for eco-friendly mobility. However, the fuel cell, known as the "heart of the hydrogen car," still faces limitations of high cost and short lifespan. ...
Phys.org / Political polarization can spur CO₂ emissions and stymie climate action
In recent years, studies and media reports have blamed growing partisan hostility in the U.S. for shattered marriages, broken families, ruined holiday dinners, and increased stress. New CU Boulder research suggests it may ...
