A new printable textile combines passive cooling with biomechanical energy harvesting to enable motion-controlled, adaptive thermal management. Led by researchers in The Grainger College of Engineering at the University of ...
Phys.org / Could quantum protocols make electronic voting more secure?
Electronic voting, the use of electronic systems to cast, record or count votes, could potentially simplify the process of electing new political leaders or other representatives. While some countries have already started ...
Medical Xpress / Self-control matures later than working memory in adolescence, large analysis finds
Adolescence, the developmental phase between childhood and adulthood, is marked by substantial mental, emotional and social changes. Past psychological studies suggest that during this stage, humans gradually acquire greater ...
Medical Xpress / Tam-Peli extends survival by nearly four months in relapsed small-cell lung cancer
The phase 3 TAISHAN-302 trial found that tambotatug pelitecan (Tam-Peli, YL201), a novel anti-B7-H3 antibody-drug conjugate, significantly improved overall survival, progression-free survival and objective response rate compared ...
Medical Xpress / Regular ketamine infusions offer new hope for treatment-resistant bipolar depression
People living with treatment-resistant bipolar disorder still have options to manage their condition. However, the choices are often limited, may take weeks to work or fail to provide full relief. That has led to a search ...
