Phys.org / New methods make tracking individual bird species during migration possible
Researchers at Cornell Lab of Ornithology, University of Massachusetts and University of Illinois have developed breakthrough methods to track the migration of individual bird species by combining participatory science data ...
Medical Xpress / People with traumatic brain injury more likely to die from brain cancer than general population
Daniel Daneshvar, MD, Ph.D., director of the HealthSpan Lab and Chief of the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Mass General Brigham, and Charlotte Luster, of the HealthSpan Lab, are the senior and lead ...
Tech Xplore / Russian satellites linked to mysterious GPS disruptions across several countries
Since 2019, GPS signals across Europe, Greenland and Canada have experienced a huge spike in sudden, widespread signal blackouts. These have resulted in disruptions and degraded performance in navigation systems that airplanes ...
Phys.org / Global rice production has nearly doubled over 50 years despite climate change
Global rice production nearly doubled between the 1960s and the 2010s, despite the negative impacts of climate change, according to a new study from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. The study found that management ...
Phys.org / P53's five-hour rhythm may let resonance target gene networks on command
Can networks of genes be stimulated using resonance? Researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute are investigating whether the protein p53, which activates a range of different genes, can be induced to communicate with the body's ...
Medical Xpress / CRISPR enzyme precisely detects and shreds DNA in cancer mutations once considered 'undruggable'
In 2020, Jennifer Doudna won the Nobel Prize in chemistry for her work on the CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing technology that allows scientists to precisely modify DNA by cutting it at specific locations. Six years later, a new ...
Phys.org / Virtual future selves improve students' planning and motivation, with gains seen after six months
Future-oriented thinking is a cornerstone of healthy decision-making, academic success and mental well-being. Yet many people struggle to act in ways that benefit their future selves, often prioritizing immediate rewards ...
Phys.org / Custom protein binders zero in on near-identical disease targets with unprecedented selectivity
In the human body, the boundary between health and severe illness can be microscopic. For decades, molecular scientists have grappled with a frustrating biological reality: The proteins driving devastating diseases often ...
Medical Xpress / Decades-old puzzle solved as scientists uncover cause of inflammatory bowel disease
Researchers at the Nuffield Department of Medicine, University of Oxford, together with Newcastle University's Translational and Clinical Research Institute and the Department of Immunology at Cambridge University Hospitals ...
Phys.org / Chimpanzees react negatively to unfairness, especially when close partners are nearby
Primates, including humans, are among the social animals living on Earth. Their survival relies heavily on cooperation with others, alliances, the sharing of resources and other social interactions.
Phys.org / Global warming hit 1.37°C in 2025, with Earth accumulating heat at an accelerating rate
Strong and consistent evidence shows that the entire climate system is continuing to heat, driving rapid global warming. Human activities pushed global warming to 1.37°C in 2025, and its level is projected to surpass 1.5°C ...
Phys.org / Coastal land shifts reveal faster local sea level rise than expected
For almost a century, researchers have known that vertical land motion—the lifting and sinking of the ground—affects sea level locally. As the ground sinks, the sea level rises relative to the land. Scientists also assumed ...
