Medical Xpress / Immune ecotypes may explain multiple myeloma outcomes missed by disease staging
Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have created a comprehensive single-cell map of the tumor immune microenvironment in multiple myeloma and its precursor conditions. The study provided insights ...
Phys.org / Hidden fifth dimension could tune dark matter resonance, new theory proposes
The mysterious substance that binds galaxies together could naturally be "in tune" with a hidden fifth dimension, according to a new University of Sheffield theory aiming to shed light on one of science's biggest enigmas: ...
Phys.org / What does it mean to feel hot? New research argues temperature is a matter of power
On a summer day in Nashville, one person escapes the heat in an air-conditioned office while another delivers packages in a metal truck that absorbs heat or labors outdoors for hours under the sun.
Tech Xplore / India approves $13 billion semiconductor plan
India approved a new semiconductor program Wednesday, offering more than $13 billion in financial assistance to accelerate local chip production as it seeks to become a global electronics powerhouse.
Medical Xpress / Sri Lanka expands anti-dengue drive as deaths mount
Sri Lanka is intensifying a military-backed drive to contain the spread of mosquito-borne dengue fever, a senior official said Wednesday, as the death toll climbed to 49 since the start of the year.
Dialog / Dark energy flips its sign, but the Hubble tension refuses to budge
For nearly a century, astronomers have known that the universe is expanding. In the late 1990s, two independent teams, the Supernova Cosmology Project, led by Saul Perlmutter, and the High-Z Supernova Search Team, led by ...
Phys.org / Two atmospheric patterns may explain why some heat waves in Europe persist
Many parts of Western Europe are currently wilting under a heat wave. These blistering spells can last for a week or more, and although they are common in most summers, it is difficult to predict how long they will last.
Phys.org / Could permanent magnets protect astronauts from solar storms?
Shielding astronauts from the deadly radiation they face is a central challenge for any designer of a deep-space crewed mission. Even relatively low levels of exposure over long periods can lead to everything from central ...
Phys.org / Gravitational waves reveal hidden populations within black hole mergers
Since gravitational waves were first detected in 2015, instruments including LIGO, Virgo and KAGRA have picked up a steady stream of signals from colliding black holes, building a catalog that now numbers in the hundreds. ...
Phys.org / New 3D thermal cloak hides objects from heat in any direction
Researchers have designed and built the first 3D device that can make objects invisible to heat, an advance that could transform how we protect sensitive electronics, manage heat in microchips and shield equipment from thermal ...
Phys.org / A new smart coating could improve the cleanup of nuclear wastewater
Scientists in China have developed a smart coating that could make it easier to remove tritium (a radioactive form of hydrogen) from nuclear power plant wastewater.
Phys.org / Why we may still be choosing our friends like it's the Stone Age
Choosing friends may involve more than clicking with others who share our interests or outlooks. According to new research, people may select friends based on traits that made them valuable survival partners in our evolutionary ...
