Medical Xpress / Open data to help create adaptive systems for stroke recovery
A team of researchers from Skoltech, the Federal Center for Brain and Neurotechnologies (FMBA of Russia), Lomonosov Moscow State University, and other leading organizations has released a dataset that will enable deeper study ...
Phys.org / Examining public perceptions of assisted reproductive technologies in wildlife conservation
A recent study published in PLOS ONE has shed light on public perceptions of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) in wildlife conservation across Czechia, Germany, and Italy. The research, conducted as part of the BioRescue ...
Phys.org / BaSi₂-supported nickel catalyst boosts low-temperature hydrogen production
A new catalyst strategy developed at Institute of Science Tokyo uses BaSi2 as a support for nickel and cobalt to decompose ammonia at lower temperatures. By forming unique ternary transition metal–nitrogen–barium intermediates ...
Phys.org / How an underground fungal map of the world's oldest, slowest-growing rainforest trees can boost Earth's resilience
The temperate rainforests of the Chilean Coast Range are home to a spectacular array of life: iridescent blue lizards, tiny wild cats called kodkods, and curly vines of waxy red bellflowers. Towering over this biodiversity ...
Phys.org / Late scientist's notebooks help finish study of rare 55-million-year-old tarpon fossil
Recently-revealed notebooks belonging to a late paleontologist contain the missing information needed to help researchers finish their study of a remarkable fossil discovered nearly three decades ago.
Phys.org / The key to attacking 'undruggable' proteins: Transient clustering state reveals a moving target
Intrinsically disordered proteins lack a fixed structure, which is why they have been considered "undruggable" targets for drug development for years. However, these proteins play a key role in numerous diseases—ranging ...
Phys.org / Chemically 'stapled' peptides used to target difficult-to-treat cancers
Researchers at the University of Bath have developed a new technology that uses bacteria to build, chemically stabilize, and test millions of potential drug molecules inside living cells, making it much quicker and easier ...
Medical Xpress / Ultra-processed foods in preschool years associated with behavioral difficulties in childhood
A team led by researchers at the University of Toronto has found an association between ultra-processed foods in early childhood, and behavioral and emotional development. Specifically, the team found that higher ultra-processed ...
Phys.org / Discovery of natural mechanism behind ferroptosis solves longstanding puzzle in cell biology
After more than a decade of research, scientists have discovered the natural mechanism behind a novel form of cell death called ferroptosis. The work, described in the current issue of Cell, points toward an entirely new ...
Tech Xplore / Deepfake songs are exploding, but a new tool shuts them down
Artificial intelligence models can now clone a voice with just a few seconds of audio, fueling a surge of deepfake songs online and creating a growing crisis for musicians who don't want their voices hijacked. Beyond the ...
Tech Xplore / Power producers have financial incentives to block market integration despite cost savings, says study
Renewable energy is lowering electricity costs in some parts of the country, but those benefits aren't being seen by consumers everywhere because they're typically placed far away from demand centers. Better integrating electricity ...
Phys.org / Maize may have more importance in pre-European Michigan than previously thought
Indigenous people who were the first to inhabit the area now known as Michigan—before the Europeans arrived—may have cultivated maize (corn) more prominently than previously assumed for such a northern population. Researchers ...
