Phys.org / Q&A: Expert discusses AI, automation drive autonomous science origin in scientific research
Rob Moore is a recognized leader in the development of autonomous science and self-driving laboratories at the Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). A Tennessee native who spent five years as ...
Phys.org / Millimeter-scale resolution in fiber-optic sensing: Single-ended technique advances infrastructure monitoring
Distributed fiber-optic sensors are widely used to monitor temperature and strain in infrastructure, but their spatial resolution has long been limited. In a new study, researchers from Shibaura Institute of Technology and ...
Medical Xpress / Rotator cuff tears are a normal part of aging, but pain isn't inevitable
The first sign that retired accountant Kathey Parcels had torn her left rotator cuff was pain, sudden and acute pain.
Medical Xpress / Protective 'switch' in most common blood cancer opens new doors for diagnosis and treatment
A new study published in The Journal of Immunology by researchers at the Josep Carreras Leukaemia Research Institute (IJC) has uncovered a crucial biological "off switch" in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the most ...
Phys.org / Well-placed poplar plantations can enhance forest connectivity for birds
A new study shows how fast-growing poplar plantations can improve functional connectivity for forest birds in fragmented agricultural landscapes, provided they are strategically located and species have moderate to high dispersal ...
Medical Xpress / Measuring the 'empty tank': Pilot study gauges muscle energy in cancer survivors
Apparently healthy cancer survivors often complain of extreme fatigue. They have finished treatment, the scans are clear, but they feel hollowed out, unable to walk to the mailbox or stay awake through dinner. The languor ...
Phys.org / The hidden factor shaping dementia caregiving stress: Relationships
Caring for a spouse with dementia is arguably one of the most emotionally and physically demanding roles a person can take on, but new research from Rice University suggests the experience is not defined by the diagnosis ...
Medical Xpress / AACR: Zedoresertib and lunresertib combination shows promising antitumor activity
For patients with advanced solid tumors harboring specific genetic alterations, the first-in-class synthetic lethal combination of WEE1 inhibitor zedoresertib plus PKMYT1 inhibitor lunresertib demonstrated promising antitumor ...
Tech Xplore / This fuel crisis could last for a while. It's time for a new approach to fuel use—end it
Australia is in the middle of a fuel crisis, but the way the state and federal governments have chosen to respond signals a firm commitment to fossil fuels.
Phys.org / Simple synthetic strategy converts blue-emissive molecules into multicolor luminescent materials
Chemistry involves the fundamental interplay between the structures and properties of molecules. Notably, subtle changes in molecular structure and crystal packing can be amplified into macroscopic phenomena such as optical ...
Phys.org / E-commerce warehouse data offers insight into worker behavior
In an e-commerce warehouse, worker performance is influenced by the performance of those around them, despite a system that discourages interaction, according to research from Caitlin Ray, ILR assistant professor in the Human ...
Phys.org / Simple mineral treatment rescues flaxseed oil, slashing bitterness and keeping omega-3-rich flavor intact
How can the mild flavor of flaxseed oil be preserved for longer? A research team led by Roman Lang from the Leibniz Institute for Food Systems Biology at the Technical University of Munich has investigated this question. ...
