Medical Xpress / New targeted therapy shows promising early results in advanced pancreatic cancer
An investigational targeted therapy designed to block one of the most common genetic drivers of pancreatic cancer has shown promising early results when combined with standard first-line chemotherapy, according to research ...
Medical Xpress / Common brain cancer mutation changes DNA shape to drive progression, exposing therapeutic target
A new study from researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center has uncovered how one of the most common genetic alterations in glioma rewires the cancer cell genome to fuel tumor progression, suggesting ...
Phys.org / Spain data on 5.5 million convictions challenges immigration-crime link
When analyzing crime, the foreign population typically shows higher rates than the native population. However, crime statistics change significantly when comparing groups of the same age and gender. A detailed data analysis ...
Tech Xplore / PTFE-free dry battery electrode could speed EV charging and extend range
A research team led by Jihee Yoon of the Advanced Materials Research Division (Korea Institute of Materials Science; KIMS), in collaboration with a team led by Insung Hwang of Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI), ...
Medical Xpress / Human red blood cells form without central 'hub' seen in mouse models, upending understanding of our physiology
Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered that one of the body's most fundamental biological processes—how red blood cells are made—works differently in humans than previously thought, according to a new study published ...
Phys.org / 'Very dangerous' super typhoon nears US Pacific islands
Howling winds and lashing rain battered Guam and the Northern Marianas late Sunday, hours before the projected arrival of a "super typhoon" with force equivalent to a Category 5 hurricane over the U.S. Pacific territories.
Phys.org / Long-lived radio outburst from black hole exhibits properties of the early universe
Short-lived sources of radio radiation in the sky, known as radio transients, can originate in the vicinity of supermassive black holes in the centers of galaxies. They are the result of processes that take place under extreme ...
Phys.org / Physicists and AI model Claude 'collaborate' to prove a 10-year-old jamming conjecture
A mathematical problem that had remained unsolved for more than 10 years in the physics of complex systems has finally been resolved through an unusual collaboration: one involving two theoretical physicists and an artificial ...
Phys.org / 'This was something new': What people in Greenland told us about learning to live with wildfires
After several quieter years, wildfires have returned to western Greenland.
Phys.org / An iconic spear-throwing device likely wasn't used by prehistoric hunters until around 10,000 years ago
Archaeologists have long pictured prehistoric hunters taking down mammoths and other megafauna using the atlatl, a handheld spear-throwing device that uses leverage to achieve greater velocity and force when throwing darts. ...
Phys.org / Physicists demonstrate Hong–Ou–Mandel interference with more than 10 atoms
In a new study published in Nature Physics, researchers have demonstrated the Hong–Ou–Mandel (HOM) effect with up to 12 indistinguishable neutral atoms—an effect that has been predominantly observed in photonic systems.
Phys.org / TESS just found a planet in a new way—and more may be hiding in its eight years of data
For the first time, NASA's TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) mission has identified a planet orbiting a distant star thanks to its warping of space-time. Unlike the star-hugging transiting planets TESS regularly ...
