Phys.org / NASA begins the countdown for humanity's first launch to the moon in 53 years
NASA began the countdown Monday for humanity's first launch to the moon in 53 years.
Medical Xpress / Sotatercept shows promise for a type of pulmonary hypertension linked to heart failure with preserved EF
Patients who have heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and high blood pressure in the lungs (pulmonary hypertension) experienced significant improvements in blood pressure and vascular health after taking ...
Phys.org / Into the fungal unknown: New tool maps fungal gene functions without reference genomes
While RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) has become a standard tool for profiling which genes are active in an organism, determining the actual biological functions of those genes in fungi remains a significant technical challenge. ...
Medical Xpress / 3 million-cell map shows menopause reshapes breast tissue, possibly raising cancer risk
Scientists have created the most detailed map to date, comprised of over 3 million cells, showing how breast tissue changes as women age—including dramatic changes during menopause.
Medical Xpress / Turning muscles into motors gives static organs new life
What if a technology could reanimate parts of the body that have lost their connection to the brain—like a bladder that can no longer empty due to a spinal cord injury, or intestines that can't push food forward due to Crohn's ...
Medical Xpress / Down syndrome study suggests early RNA editing shifts may reshape fetal brain circuits
A collaborative research study co-led by scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and the Liber Institute for Brain Development has for the first time identified a biological process that may help explain ...
Phys.org / De-alcoholization tech can help fix bushfire faults in wine
New research has found technology that removes alcohol from wine can be combined with traditional remediation techniques to mitigate smoke taint, minimizing its impact on wine's sensory elements.
Medical Xpress / Mitral valve-in-valve procedure associated with lower risk of death, disabling strokes
In patients with a poorly functioning bioprosthetic mitral valve in the heart, a minimally invasive procedure to insert a new valve was associated with a lower rate of death or disabling stroke within one year, compared with ...
Phys.org / 'A very big deal': Canadian astronaut reflects on historic moon mission
As soon as Wednesday, NASA is poised to make history—sending the first woman, the first person of color, and the first non-American on a voyage around the moon.
Phys.org / Legged robot could accelerate resource prospecting on the moon and the search for life on Mars
Planetary surface missions currently operate cautiously. On Mars, communication delays between Earth and rovers (typically between four and 22 minutes), as well as data transfer constraints due to uplink and downlink limitations, ...
Phys.org / Ancient predator species discovered in South Africa challenges what we know about gorgonopsians
In a study published in The Anatomical Record, researchers have identified a new species of large-bodied gorgonopsian from the middle Permian. The discovery pushed back the known origins of when these apex predators began ...
