Medical Xpress / Puberty may hide rising anxiety in children as parent awareness lags
Starting middle school brings big changes—new schools, heavier workloads, shifting friendships. These changes are easy for parents to see. But alongside them, something less visible may be happening: a rise in anxiety linked ...
Medical Xpress / Your address, ancestry and gut may be steering aging in ways medicine has barely begun to map
Researchers at the Stanford School of Medicine have found that ethnicity and geography may influence human molecular makeup—from metabolism and immunity to gut microbiota and biological aging. The findings, published in Cell, ...
Medical Xpress / Q&A: Examining the quality of life after esophageal and gastric cancer treatment
The survival rates of patients with esophageal and gastric cancers have improved. However, many survivors continue to experience long-term symptoms. On May 29, Kenneth Färnqvist will defend his thesis "The architecture of ...
Phys.org / A child's environment may shape how their brain solves problems
For decades, researchers have documented an achievement gap between children from higher- and lower-income families. On average, children with more resources perform better in school and on cognitive tests.
Phys.org / New reversible conductive glue could reshape electronics repair, recycling, and material recovery
A collaboration between electrical and chemical engineers at Newcastle University is responsible for a reversible glue that can change how we recycle electronic waste. The team has already demonstrated reversible adhesive ...
Medical Xpress / Contact lenses treat depression in mice as effectively as anti-depressant medication
Materials scientists have designed brain-stimulating contact lenses that are as effective as Prozac at treating depression in mice. The soft, transparent contact lenses have in-built electrodes that deliver mild electrical ...
Phys.org / Physics in uncharted waters: The mysteries of marine snow
Can "snow" fall in the ocean and influence the climate of the entire planet? It turns out that it can. Research conducted by scientists from the Faculty of Physics at University of Warsaw, published in the Journal of Fluid ...
Medical Xpress / Discovery of fat-burning 'switch' could lead to advances in bone disease treatments
Scientists' discovery of a molecular "switch" that activates an energy-burning pathway in mice has the potential to lead to new treatments for bone disease. The study, published in Nature, sheds new light on brown fat. Unlike ...
Phys.org / NASA's Psyche spacecraft buzzing Mars on its way to a rare metal asteroid
A NASA spacecraft chasing a rare metal asteroid swings past Mars this week for a gravity boost, snapping thousands of pictures as practice for the main encounter in 2029.
Tech Xplore / Governments may shape what AI chatbots say by shaping the web they learn from
Ask an AI model the same political question in two different languages, and you may get two very different responses. A new study in Nature suggests one reason why: governments can indirectly influence large language models ...
Medical Xpress / How a seconds-long toe scan with AI could widen access to PAD screening
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) affects 8 to 12 million Americans. The condition is caused by the buildup of plaque (cholesterol and other substances) inside blood vessels, restricting blood flow to the legs and disproportionately ...
Phys.org / Satellite launch pollution is rapidly accumulating in the upper atmosphere
The potent pollution from so-called megaconstellation satellite systems launched en masse into space since 2019 will account for nearly half (42%) of the total climate impact of space sector pollution by the end of the decade, ...
