Phys.org / Majorana modes withstand disorder in atomic chains, boosting fault-tolerant quantum computing
Quantum computers—systems that process information and perform computations by leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics—could solve some tasks faster and more effectively than classical computers. While some studies ...
Tech Xplore / Self-regenerating catalyst overcomes key durability challenge in hydrogen energy
Imagine a catalyst that can heal itself after being damaged. A POSTECH-led research team has developed an electrocatalyst that regenerates its own metallic surface after oxidation, much like how a wound heals naturally. This ...
Phys.org / Why animal calls sound alike in time: Most species share a common communication tempo
From insects to great apes, by way of birds and fish, animals communicate through an extraordinary variety of sounds. While the pitch or timbre of their vocalizations matters, rhythm may play a more fundamental role. Scientists ...
Medical Xpress / Novel gene therapy platform restores muscle function in Duchenne muscular dystrophy model
A new treatment platform developed by researchers at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center was able to deliver messenger RNA (mRNA) of the full-length DMD gene into preclinical models of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, ...
Tech Xplore / AI robot cleaners leave the lab for China's living rooms
Beijing cleaner Lin Meiqiong found her work a little easier the day she was paired with an unlikely new colleague—a tall, wheeled robot with AI-powered tidying skills.
Science X / People are not as dishonest as we expect them to be, finds new study
According to a Pew Research report, Americans trust one another less than they did a few decades ago. Social trust is shaped largely by personal experiences of navigating the world, as well as by how strongly people believe ...
Medical Xpress / Cancer drug combo activates inflammatory signal that could boost immune response
What if a new combination of cancer drugs could sound an alarm, alerting the body's immune system to invoke a targeted response to cancer cells? Findings from a new study appear in a paper published in Nucleic Acids Research.
Medical Xpress / National climate plans recognize health risks, yet few protect most vulnerable groups
The majority of national climate adaptation plans fail to fully integrate health needs or engage populations most at risk from climate change, an international team of investigators led by Weill Cornell Medicine found.
Tech Xplore / The Indian workers training AI robots to take their jobs
With a smartphone strapped to her head, Indian housewife Nagireddy Sriramyachandra films herself slicing mangoes to train AI-powered robots to take on household jobs in the future.
Medical Xpress / Supercharged natural killer cells suppress solid tumors in mice
Scientists have made great progress in harnessing the body's own immune cells to treat so-called liquid tumors, cancers of the blood and lymphatic system. Yet these powerful cell therapies have been no match for solid tumors, ...
Tech Xplore / Seeing through a robot's eyes: Augmented reality helps humans predict machine behavior
As robots increasingly move out of factories and into workplaces, hospitals, warehouses and public spaces, a simple challenge becomes increasingly important: helping people understand what those machines are about to do.
Medical Xpress / AI chatbots mimic fear, sadness and stress, then calm down after mindfulness exercise
Large language models (LLMs) can replicate human emotions like fear, sadness and anxiety, and be "calmed down" by a breathing exercise, suggests a study published in The Lancet Digital Health. This means LLMs could potentially ...
