Medical Xpress / Vital signs reveal three stages of maturation in preterm infants
Every year, thousands of babies are born prematurely, interrupting critical stages of development. Researchers Giulia Palladino and Julia Meijer from Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) and Máxima Medical Center have ...
Phys.org / Geomagnetic superstorm shook GPS accuracy across the US—its timing may have averted agricultural losses
On Nov. 11, 2025, Earth experienced a severe geomagnetic storm triggered by solar flares and coronal mass ejections from an active sunspot region. While this kind of storm brings beautiful auroras admired in many areas around ...
Medical Xpress / Creating new 3D models to test drugs in pediatric sarcoma: A postdoc's recipe for research
The Great British Bake Off offers drama, baking tips and—for one viewer in South Carolina—inspiration for creating 3D models that can be used to test cancer drugs.
Tech Xplore / A new kind of AI that does its thinking cheaply without words
There may soon be a new kind of artificial intelligence in town, one that uses a novel approach to thinking that could save massive amounts of computing power and money.
Medical Xpress / Ghanaian adults' diets fall short on sustainability, survey finds
There has been a rapid increase in cardiovascular and metabolic conditions in sub-Saharan Africa. What is the link between sustainable diets that are nutritious, environmentally friendly, economically affordable and socioculturally ...
Phys.org / Engineered bacteria offer a new way to accelerate rock weathering for carbon removal
Rock weathering, the breakdown and dissolving of rocks and minerals caused by their exposure to water, air and biological life, is a major regulator of Earth's atmospheric CO2 levels and climate. Throughout Earth's history, ...
Phys.org / A supermassive black hole erupted in X-rays, and its radio jets followed 300 days later
By combining roughly two decades of observations from NASA's Swift X-ray Telescope with radio monitoring, astronomers have caught a supermassive black hole at the heart of the Perseus Cluster suddenly flaring in X-rays, and ...
Tech Xplore / Engineers work toward a hurricane-resilient Texas
Torrential downpours. Storm surge floods. Thunder and lightning. High winds of more than 100 mph (161 km/h). Hurricanes are among the most devastating natural hazards to affect Texans. Damage causes many disruptions, including ...
Medical Xpress / Gut bacteria linked to key brain chemicals in first-of-its-kind human study
The neuroactive potential of bacteria living in the human gut is associated with levels of key chemicals in the brain, according to a new study published in Molecular Psychiatry. The research team from the University of Surrey ...
Phys.org / Switching gravity on and off leaves particles behind, mathematical model finds
Hawking radiation causes black holes to eventually evaporate. This is because particle pairs are spontaneously created near the event horizon (the position of the last ray of light that can escape the black hole's gravitational ...
Phys.org / Milky Way's own gravity can mimic dark matter clues, stellar stream simulations suggest
Most of the stars in our Milky Way galaxy sit neatly on a flat plane. But the space around our galaxy is much more chaotic. Rogue bands of stars called "stellar streams" orbit the Milky Way much like planets in our solar ...
Phys.org / Interstellar travel V: Warp drives, wormholes, and halo drives
Welcome back to our series on Interstellar Travel, where we look at the many proposals made for sending missions to the stars since the dawn of the Space Age. In our first installment, we examined how Cold War-era developments ...
