Medical Xpress / AI tool predicts cancer metastasis risk using gene expression signatures
Why do some tumors spread while others remain localized? The mechanisms governing the metastatic potential of tumor cells remain largely unknown—yet understanding this is crucial for optimizing patient care.
Phys.org / Sourdough starters reveal a recipe for predicting microbial species survival
People have long said that "bread is life." Now, researchers at Tufts University are using the bubbling mixtures of flour and water known as sourdough starters to explore what shapes life at the microscopic level. Their findings, ...
Tech Xplore / Solar-powered desalination system overcomes widespread salt-clogging barrier
Monash University and Indian Institute of Technology Bombay researchers have developed a solar-powered desalination prototype that can produce safe drinking water continuously, overcoming a major technical barrier that has ...
Medical Xpress / Link between smoking and depression confirmed in study
A research group led by the Central Institute of Mental Health (CIMH) in Mannheim has confirmed for the first time within the German National Cohort (NAKO) an association between cigarette consumption and depression. The ...
Phys.org / AI model that found 370 exoplanets now digs into TESS data
Scientists have discovered over 6,000 planets that orbit stars other than our sun, known as exoplanets. More than half of these planets were discovered thanks to data from NASA's retired Kepler mission and NASA's current ...
Phys.org / Dark energy survey scientists release analysis of all six years of survey data
The Dark Energy Survey Collaboration collected information on hundreds of millions of galaxies across the universe using the U.S. Department of Energy-fabricated Dark Energy Camera, mounted on the U.S. National Science Foundation ...
Tech Xplore / Turning city traffic into a computer: Novel approach to AI could slash energy demands
What if traffic could compute? This may sound strange, but researchers at Tohoku University's WPI-AIMR have unveiled a bold new idea: using road traffic itself as a computer.
Phys.org / Four-eyed Cambrian fish fossils hint at origins of vertebrate pineal complex
New fossil evidence from China suggests that some of our vertebrate ancestors had four eyes. The study, published in Nature, takes a closer look at a structure found in multiple 518 million-year-old fossils, which appears ...
Phys.org / Astronomers discover dense super-Neptune exoplanet orbiting a sun-like star
Using NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), an international team of astronomers has discovered a new extrasolar planet orbiting a sun-like star. The newfound alien world, designated TOI-3862 b, turns out to ...
Phys.org / Increased soil salinity alters global inorganic carbon storage, finds study
A new global study shows that increasing soil salinity is systematically reshaping the storage and distribution of soil inorganic carbon (SIC), a key but often-overlooked part of terrestrial ecosystems. The findings, published ...
