Phys.org / Gradient cathodes boost stability of Li-rich batteries
Recently, a research team led by Prof. Zhao Bangchuan from the Institute of Solid State Physics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Prof. Xiao Yao from Wenzhou University, ...
Phys.org / A long-lost Soviet spacecraft: AI could finally solve the mystery of Luna 9's landing site
Using an advanced machine-learning algorithm, researchers in the UK and Japan have identified several promising candidate locations for the long-lost landing site of the Soviet Luna 9 spacecraft. Publishing their results ...
Medical Xpress / From the lab to the living room: Decoding Parkinson's patients' movements in the real world
Scientists have traditionally studied how the brain controls movement by asking patients to perform structured tasks while connected to multiple sensors in a lab. While these studies have provided important insights, these ...
Medical Xpress / How pancreatic cancer prepares the tumor environment: A possible biomarker for the earliest stage of development
Even before a tumor in the pancreas becomes discernible, an activated cancer gene actively remodels its future environment and creates an inflammatory and immune-defensive microenvironment in which the carcinoma can grow. ...
Medical Xpress / Want a tall, smart child? How IVF tests are selling a dream
Prospective parents are being marketed genetic tests that claim to predict which IVF embryo will grow into the tallest, smartest or healthiest child. But these tests cannot deliver what they promise. The benefits are likely ...
Phys.org / A safer, cost-effective solution for large-scale energy storage
A research team affiliated with UNIST has achieved a major breakthrough in the development of cost-effective, large-scale energy storage systems (ESS)—specifically, iron–chromium redox flow batteries (ICRFBs). Known for ...
Phys.org / Subaru observations suggest an intrinsic gap in NGC 5466's tidal stream
Astronomers from the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ) and elsewhere have used the Subaru Telescope to perform deep imaging observations of a distant globular cluster known as NGC 5466. The observational campaign ...
Medical Xpress / False alarm in newborn screening: How zebrafish can prevent unnecessary spinal muscular atrophy therapies
A positive newborn screening for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is currently considered a medical emergency. Without early treatment, severe disability or death in infancy are likely. However, research findings from Germany ...
Phys.org / Living in space can change where your brain sits in your skull: New research
Going to space is harsh on the human body, and as a new study from our research team finds, the brain shifts upward and backward and deforms inside the skull after spaceflight.
Tech Xplore / How much can an autonomous robotic arm feel like part of the body?
When AI-powered prosthetic arms that move autonomously become widespread, understanding how people feel about them and accept them will be crucial. In a study appearing in Scientific Reports, scientists used virtual reality ...
Medical Xpress / Combating leukemia by stopping stem cells from turning cancerous
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive form of blood cancer. It affects people of all ages but is most common in those over 65. Around 150 people are diagnosed with the disease each year in Norway. Men are affected ...
Phys.org / Female scientists wait longer to have papers published in life and biomedical sciences
If you are a woman working in biomedical and life sciences, you may have longer to wait for your academic paper to appear in print than a comparable paper authored by a man. According to research published in the journal ...
