Phys.org / Biodegradable sensors attached to plants detect pesticides in 3 minutes
Researchers at the São Carlos Institute of Physics at the University of São Paulo (IFSC-USP) in Brazil, led by Paulo Augusto Raymundo-Pereira, have created biodegradable, "wearable" sensors for plants to monitor their health, ...
Tech Xplore / A novel deep learning architecture for multi-source data fusion
Recent years have witnessed the unprecedented development of Industry 4.0 and the Industrial Internet of Things. These two technologies have significantly facilitated data collection from different sources for numerous tasks, ...
Medical Xpress / Study reveals promising new therapy for non-Hodgkin lymphoma
Not all cancers respond to the same treatments or have the same genetic origins. Epstein–Barr virus (EBV), a common and highly contagious virus, has been found to cause certain cancers, including non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). ...
Phys.org / How 'gentle power' leads to successful environmental conservation
Environmental conservation is one of the most pressing debates across the world. For decades, it has often been viewed as a choice between strict government regulation and voluntary community action. However, a new research ...
Phys.org / What gives stevia its sweetness? Scientists uncover the genetic secret
Stevia is a widely used sweetener, but why do some stevia varieties taste cleaner and more sugar-like than others? Recent research conducted at the University of Toyama shows that stevia's sweetness is genetically linked ...
Phys.org / Meltwater flushed methane from Greenland seabed during ice-sheet retreat, researchers reveal
An international team of scientists has discovered that methane hydrates beneath the northwest Greenland continental shelf became rapidly destabilized by meltwater, releasing large stores of methane during ice-sheet retreat ...
Science X / Are remoras the ocean's weirdest hitchhikers? These suckerfish invade manta rays in the most intimate of places
Remoras (family Echeneidae) are ray-finned fish that are known to attach themselves to large marine animals, such as whales, sharks, and turtles. They get a free ride and sometimes food, and in return, often provide cleaning ...
Phys.org / Patrolling males and waiting females—observing reproductive behavior of black sea bream in the wild
Ultrasonic tracking in Hiroshima Bay shows that male and female black sea bream move differently during the spawning season, offering a novel discovery into the reproductive behavior of a broadcast-spawning sparid fish in ...
Medical Xpress / The rules neurons follow to make sense of what we see
Even in the primary visual cortex, a brain region named for its specialized role in processing basic features of what the eyes see, not every neuron ends up answering the call to process properties of visual input. Maybe ...
Tech Xplore / A single real-world data point may stop AI model collapse, analysis suggests
New work explaining the inner workings of artificial intelligence could provide a way around the threat of AI "model collapse," potentially averting growing numbers of AI hallucinations in the future.
Medical Xpress / Friendly skin bacteria shut down inflammatory driver of eczema
Friendly skin bacteria could hold the key to stopping eczema in its tracks, according to a breakthrough by a team of UK and Japanese scientists. Their new study reveals harmless microbes living on our skin release powerful ...
Tech Xplore / Blind ambition: AI agents can turn tasks into digital disasters
Computer scientists at UC Riverside have identified troubling flaws in a new generation of artificial intelligence (AI) agents designed to take over routine computer chores while users are away—sorting emails, organizing ...
