Medical Xpress / Researchers identify mental health effects of AI-driven job insecurity
As AI rapidly moves into the workplace, many workers are feeling uneasy. Two University of Florida researchers have developed a new clinical model that could help health care providers recognize and treat the stress and disruption ...
Phys.org / Photonic integrated circuits enable programmable non-Abelian 'braiding' of light states
A research team has successfully implemented a programmable spinor lattice on a photonic integrated circuit (PIC). This platform enables the realization of non-Abelian physics, in which the outcome of operations depends on ...
Medical Xpress / How far can teenage Kiwi running star Sam Ruthe go? What science and history tell us
When New Zealand runner Sam Ruthe crossed the line to break the under-18 indoor mile world record last week at Boston University, he became the 11th fastest indoor miler of all time.
Phys.org / A new microscope for the quantum age: Single nanoscale scan measures four key material properties
Physicists in Leiden have built a microscope that can measure no fewer than four key properties of a material in a single scan, all with nanoscale precision. The instrument can even examine complete quantum chips, accelerating ...
Phys.org / Reading to young kids improves their social skills, and it doesn't matter whether parents stop to ask questions
In 2024, 51% of families read aloud to their very young children, while 37% read aloud to their kids between the ages of 6 and 8 years old.
Medical Xpress / Record rates of ear disease discovered in Papua New Guinea children
The first-ever comprehensive study to estimate the prevalence of otitis media (OM) in Papua New Guinea (PNG) has revealed some of the world's highest rates of childhood middle ear disease. Published in The Lancet Regional ...
Phys.org / Silicon metasurfaces boost optical image processing with passive intensity-based filtering
Of the many feats achieved by artificial intelligence (AI), the ability to process images quickly and accurately has had an especially impressive impact on science and technology. Now, researchers in the McKelvey School of ...
Phys.org / Female scientists wait longer to have papers published in life and biomedical sciences
If you are a woman working in biomedical and life sciences, you may have longer to wait for your academic paper to appear in print than a comparable paper authored by a man. According to research published in the journal ...
Medical Xpress / 'I wish I could fall asleep and never wake up': Even passive suicidal thoughts are a worry—here's how to respond
Suicide is the leading cause of death among Australians aged 15 to 49. Approximately one in eight Australians have seriously considered suicide.
Phys.org / The changing chemistry of invasive death cap mushrooms
The California Department of Public Health reported 39 related poisonings in the last three months, leading to the death of four people, at least three liver transplants, and many more people made sick. The culprit? In each ...
Phys.org / New 3D printing ink uses 70% lignin and recycles with water
Additive manufacturing (AM) methods, such as 3D printing, enable the realization of objects with different geometric properties, by adding materials layer-by-layer to physically replicate a digital model. These methods are ...
Phys.org / Fermi data help refine orbital parameters of a gamma-ray binary
Using NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, Chinese astronomers have observed a gamma-ray binary system known as PSR J2032+4127. Results of the new observations, published February 3 on the arXiv preprint server, shed more ...
