Phys.org / Highly stable Cu₄₅ superatom could transform carbon recycling
After years of trying, scientists have finally created a stable superatom of copper, a long-sought-after chemical breakthrough that could revolutionize how we deal with carbon emissions.
Medical Xpress / Metformin shown to prevent long COVID across risk groups in multiple randomized trials
Multiple randomized clinical trials and electronic health record studies now show that metformin, a widely used and well-established medication, significantly reduces the risk of developing long COVID when taken during or ...
Phys.org / High-resolution map shows dark matter's gravity pulled normal matter into galaxies
Scientists have created the highest resolution map of the dark matter that threads through the universe—showing its influence on the formation of stars, galaxies and planets.
Medical Xpress / A benchmark for antibodies: Open dataset aims to standardize sequencing and measurement
Antibodies are the immune system's precision tools for recognizing and neutralizing viruses, bacteria and other foreign substances that can make us ill. These proteins circulate in the bloodstream and are built from chains ...
Medical Xpress / Protein is all the rage: But how much do you really need?
Protein is having a moment, with federal guidelines significantly raising the recommended amount people should eat every day and products ranging from coffee drinks to Pop-Tarts touting enhanced levels of the nutrient. Eating ...
Phys.org / Amazon Leo satellites exceed brightness limits, study finds
Seeing a satellite zip across the night sky can be a fascinating sight. However, what may be spectacular for people on the ground is becoming a major problem for astronomers. A new study published on the arXiv preprint server ...
Phys.org / Why termite kings and queens are monogamous: Scientists uncover surprising answer
Termites are among the most successful animals on Earth, forming vast societies that can number in the millions. But how did such complex social systems evolve from solitary ancestors that looked much like today's cockroaches?
Phys.org / From stellar engines to Dyson bubbles, alien megastructures could hold themselves together under the right conditions
New theoretical models have strengthened the case that immense, energy-harvesting structures orbiting their host stars could exist in principle in distant stellar systems. With the right engineering precautions, calculations ...
Medical Xpress / Study finds comparable long-term survival between 2 leading multi-arterial coronary artery bypass grafting strategies
A late-breaking study drawing on more than 15 years of national outcomes data from the STS Adult Cardiac Surgery Database (ACSD) suggests that the two most commonly used multi-arterial coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) ...
Medical Xpress / New nanotherapy eases bone metastasis pain by disrupting tumor-nerve crosstalk
A new nano-sized drug carrier that finds bone tumors and releases treatment exactly where it's needed is here to improve the precision and comfort of cancer therapy. Designed by a team of researchers from China, this smart ...
Phys.org / The Great Mongolian Road: Japanese Imperial Army maps reveal first detailed documentation
In a study published in the Journal of Historical Geography, researchers Dr. Chris McCarthy and his colleagues have documented, for the first time, the Great Mongolian Road, a major yet understudied east-west caravan route ...
Medical Xpress / Stimulating the brain with electromagnetic therapy after stroke may help reduce disability
A type of therapy that stimulates specific brain pathways with electromagnetic pulses combined with physical therapy significantly reduced overall disability in stroke survivors compared to survivors who received sham (inactive) ...
