Phys.org / Three years of science: Ten cosmic surprises from NASA's Webb telescope
Since July 2022, NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has been unwaveringly focused on our universe. With its unprecedented power to detect and analyze otherwise invisible infrared light, Webb is making observations that were ...
Medical Xpress / Click chemistry PET imaging tracks antisense drug distribution in the brain
Assessing the distribution of a medication in the brain is critical for the treatment of a vast range of neurological disorders, especially conditions such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases. To that end, scientists ...
Phys.org / ALMA reveals hidden structures in the first galaxies of the universe
Astronomers have used the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) to peer into the early universe and uncover the building blocks of galaxies during their formative years. The CRISTAL survey—short for [CII] ...
Medical Xpress / Scientifically grounded recommendations for stretching published for the first time
For the first time, an international research team has developed concrete, evidence-based stretching recommendations for practical use. The team was led by Prof. Dr. Dr. Jan Wilke of the University of Bayreuth. Their recommendations, ...
Medical Xpress / New cell signaling pathway found to shield blood vessels from hypertension damage
By creating artificial aging in mice, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have been able to track the formation of aneurysms in the walls of blood vessels.
Phys.org / Shape-shifting particles allow temperature control over fluid flow and stiffness
Imagine a liquid that flows freely one moment, then stiffens into a near-solid the next, and then can switch back with a simple change in temperature. Researchers at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular ...
Phys.org / How cucumbers got longer, and why it's a big deal for farming
Cucumbers, a summer staple of salads and sandwiches, are a valuable commercial crop. They also have a less well-known role as valuable model plants which are helping researchers to extend the boundaries of genomic discovery.
Medical Xpress / Preclinical study unlocks a mystery of rapid mouth healing
Bite the inside of your cheek, and the wound may vanish without a trace in a couple of days. A preclinical study co-led by Cedars-Sinai, Stanford Medicine and the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), has discovered ...
Phys.org / Displays, imaging and sensing: New blue fluorophore breaks efficiency records in both solids and solutions
A new blue fluorescent molecule set new top emission efficiencies in both solid and liquid states, according to a University of Michigan-led study that could pave the way for applications in technology and medicine.
