Medical Xpress / ChatGPT can generate personality tests and predict people's responses before they take them
In iScience, scientists outline how they developed a method for generating personality assessment questionnaires with ChatGPT from any source text. To test the method, they applied it to both the DSM-5 and, as a deliberately ...
Phys.org / New semiconductor maser operates continuously above room temperature
Lasers have become indispensable in everyday life and research, with applications ranging from data transmission and metrology to manufacturing. Masers, by contrast, have so far found hardly any practical applications.
Medical Xpress / Why the same antibiotic can cure one infection but fail in another
A group of researchers has uncovered why one common antibiotic works for urinary tract infections but often fails elsewhere, offering greater insight into how the body's own chemistry can determine whether antibiotics succeed ...
Phys.org / Light-activated nanoparticles could help surgeons find and destroy brain cancer remnants
Glioblastoma is the most aggressive form of brain cancer. It's difficult to treat because tumor cells infiltrate the surrounding brain tissue, making it hard for surgeons to remove the cancer completely without damaging healthy ...
Tech Xplore / Paste-and-laser strategy helps TOPCon solar cells reach 26.31% certified efficiency
Improving the efficiency of solar cells is key to reducing the cost of solar power. Now, scientists have developed a new synergistic metallization strategy for tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) solar cells. The approach ...
Phys.org / Miniaturized laser technology paves the way for fundamental physics experiments in space
An international team of researchers has succeeded in producing atomic quantum gas mixtures with an unprecedented particle flux. In the journal Nature Communications, the scientists report on experiments conducted with the ...
Phys.org / Webb reveals warped structure in nearby TW Hydrae's protoplanetary disk
Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers obtained high-contrast coronagraphic images of the protoplanetary disk around the young, nearby star TW Hydrae. Results of the observational campaign, published July ...
Medical Xpress / Human genome milestone opens door for personalized genomics
Scientists have reconstructed the complete genome of a real person, with full sets of chromosomes from each parent, a breakthrough expected to advance research, improve the diagnosis of genetic diseases and make personalized ...
Phys.org / Fluorescent nanosensors help distinguish between healthy and diseased immune cells in blood samples
Researchers at Karolinska Institutet and SciLifeLab have developed a new method to analyze the condition of immune cells in the blood. The method has been tested on patients with atherosclerosis and can distinguish their ...
Phys.org / Your next handbag could start with mushrooms
The search for leather alternatives has led researchers somewhere unexpected: fungi. Although traditional leather is durable, producing it requires animal agriculture, which carries negative environmental impacts. Meanwhile, ...
Medical Xpress / Why women need to be prioritized in longevity research
Why do women, on average, live longer than men yet often face a greater burden of chronic disease later in life? Why do some of the most fertile animals in nature, including queen bees and naked mole-rat queens, also live ...
Phys.org / Air-stable, ultrathin superconductors developed for more scalable quantum devices
Super-thin superconducting materials, which are only one or a few atoms thick, have unique properties scientists can leverage to produce more compact, scalable, and efficient quantum devices. But these fragile materials degrade ...
