Medical Xpress / Midlife women at risk for eating disorders, research finds
Alumna Maria Bazo Perez '23, Ph.D. '25 is shedding light on a demographic often left in the shadows of eating disorder research: middle-aged women. Eating disorders among women between the ages of 45 and 65 are not new, but ...
Medical Xpress / Osteoarthritis: How stimulating the muscles with electricity may help manage the condition
An estimated 595 million people globally are living with osteoarthritis. This makes it one of the leading causes of pain and disability.
Phys.org / JWST spots two early black holes growing far faster than their galaxies
Astronomers have discovered two early-universe galaxies where the central black holes appear to have grown far faster than their host galaxies. Observations with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) reveal that the black ...
Phys.org / How the Atlantic herring adapted to the brackish water of the Baltic Sea
When the Atlantic herring colonized the Baltic Sea thousands of years ago, it needed to adapt to the low salinity. Genes with a vital role in the functioning of sperm, eggs and embryos were crucial to this adaptation. A new ...
Phys.org / Resilient quantum sensor monitors Earth's magnetic field from space for 10 months
From navigation to solar weather forecasting, many different areas of research require space-based sensors to measure Earth's magnetic field as accurately as possible at any given moment. So far, however, existing sensors ...
Medical Xpress / Early-life adversity reshapes growth and reproduction in rhesus macaques for decades
Many factors influence growth and reproductive patterns in animals and people alike. New research, led by postdoctoral researcher Rachel Petersen of the Lea Lab at Vanderbilt and Assistant Professor Sam Patterson of Notre ...
Phys.org / Buried in Sudan's desert, 280 vast stone circles reveal a vanished cattle-herding culture
Recent satellite remote sensing surveys have identified 280 stone structures spread across the Atbai desert in Sudan. Twenty of these structures were previously identified by fieldwork or informal surveys, but were not systematically ...
Tech Xplore / Scaling carbon electrolysis means solving heat, pressure and flow, commentary says
Electrolysis can resemble a modern version of alchemy. Start with one compound, run it through an electrochemical process and end up with an entirely different mix of chemicals. One can't turn straw into gold, but humans ...
Phys.org / How a single star can reshape an entire galaxy
Astronomers who simulate galaxies do not always get the same result, even when they start from identical conditions. New research from Leiden University shows that this is not a flaw, but a consequence of how galaxies behave—and ...
Medical Xpress / 18 people in US hantavirus monitoring units, one positive
Eighteen people are being monitored in US medical facilities for hantavirus, including one who tested positive for the rare disease, public health officials said Monday.
Phys.org / What happens when scientists trust AI more than colleagues?
Artificial intelligence has crossed a threshold in the modern workplace. It is being used for everything from helping employees manage schedules to supporting financial forecasts. A similar shift is now unfolding inside research ...
Phys.org / Why ocean warming experiments may be making misleading predictions
Accurate experiments on how ocean warming affects marine life are vital to ensure we can best prepare for the future, protect our food sources, and help safeguard ocean ecosystems. But some of these experiments may miss how ...
