Phys.org / Drug delivery concept boosts nanoparticle surfactants for enhanced oil recovery
In an unlikely collaboration between Skoltech's Petroleum Center and the drug delivery team from the Institute's Neuro Center, researchers have proposed new surfactants that enhance oil recovery when pumped into a well, along ...
Phys.org / New data reveals how gentrification is reshaping who can afford to live on London
Gentrifying neighborhoods across London are undergoing rapid change, with rising numbers of newcomers arriving from less deprived areas and from further afield than ever before, according to new research from the Geographic ...
Medical Xpress / Baby headcams reveal how babies encounter faces during development
Cardiff Babylab at the Cardiff University Center for Human Developmental Science (CUCHDS) used baby-worn headcams and AI face detection to investigate the everyday viewing of faces during playtime across the first years of ...
Phys.org / Study finds no evidence that using gender-inclusive language alone helps women in the workplace
The use of gender-inclusive language may not in itself help women in the workplace, a new study shows. Researchers could not find that its use in English and German had an impact on the short-term display of crucial traits ...
Phys.org / New technology solves production bottleneck for black soldier fly larvae
Texas A&M AgriLife Research scientists have developed a patented breakthrough system that marks a major step forward in insect biomanufacturing, waste reduction and sustainable protein production.
Phys.org / Peatland restoration can deliver climate mitigation benefits within a few decades
New research indicates that restoration of peatlands can result in climate mitigation within just a few decades. In Finland, some 60,000 hectares of previously forestry-drained peatlands have already been restored, comprising ...
Phys.org / Ensuring equitable technological transitions: AI use in the workforce
Much of the public conversation about generative AI and work focuses narrowly on job loss or productivity gains. But research by Professor of Sociology Chris Benner draws on lessons from past technological transitions and ...
Phys.org / Girls are happiest at school—for good reasons, finds Norwegian study
A new survey shows that there is a clear difference between girls and boys when it comes to well-being at school. "Girls are happier than boys. This applies both in class and at school in general," says Professor Hermundur ...
Phys.org / How early-career English language teachers can grow professionally, despite all odds

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 / 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 / 16 years of brain scans reveal the cerebellum's crucial role in human language
The cerebellum, often called the little brain, plays a much bigger role in language processing than once believed. Located at the base of the brain, the cerebellum has long been thought to be mainly responsible for motor ...
