Science X / Hot European summers may be predictable years in advance from North Atlantic warming
A buildup of warmth in the North Atlantic Ocean could provide an early warning that Europe is more likely to experience unusually hot summers years later, according to a new study published in Geophysical Research Letters.
Phys.org / Why cells started sticking together could help explain how animals first evolved
A recent study by Ruibao Li and Jennah Dharamshi published in Nature may help us understand the beginnings of animal evolution billions of years ago. These findings are the result of a collaboration among researchers at Indiana ...
Medical Xpress / Shared recollections of events linked to similar brain activity patterns
People who attended or experienced the same event often remember it in completely different ways. For instance, one person might remember a family dinner as warm and enjoyable, while another might recall that the same dinner ...

Anyone who has had a bad night knows that they can feel "foggy" the next day. This fogginess may extend to our memory: remembering where we went, who we met or what happened during the encounter. Neuroscientist Robbert Havekes ...
Tech Xplore / New water-based material could store solar energy, power reactions in darkness, then recharge
Northwestern University scientists have developed a new liquid material that charges like a battery, transforms like a living organism and then resets itself in open air. Traditionally, harvesting energy, storing it and using ...
Phys.org / Silent prions reveal new cross-species chronic wasting disease risk in lab tests
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is generally associated with animals. But a new study by researchers from the University of Calgary and international collaborators explored the potential for CWD to spread from deer, elk and ...
Phys.org / Quantum memory surpasses classical limits for storing unknown quantum operations
Quantum memories, systems that store and retrieve information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, can outperform classical storage systems on some existing tasks. Yet these promising memories could also complete operations ...
Phys.org / Nickelate superconductors share a common electronic fingerprint
Superconductors, materials that conduct electricity with zero electrical resistance at specific temperature ranges, have proved very promising for the development of quantum computers and other cutting-edge technologies. ...
