Phys.org / 'Ghost of the forest' returns to Kenya as conservationists reintroduce rare antelope into the wild
The mountain bongo has become the "ghost of the forest," hard to spot amid the dense shrubs due to its ability to camouflage.
Medical Xpress / Health advice is all over social media. Here's how to vet claims
Health and wellness advice is available in abundance on social media—from trendy to informative to straight-up disinformation—and you're far from alone in seeing it.
Phys.org / Organic luminescent radicals enable bright circularly polarized light in the near-infrared region
Circularly polarized light has properties that make it useful in a growing range of technologies, from next-generation 3D displays to bioimaging tools that can detect signals deep within living tissues. One way to produce ...
Medical Xpress / Malaria's hidden toll on children: Why survivors may struggle in school years later
A disease transmitted by the bite of a tiny insect—one that once devastated entire armies—remains among the leading causes of death worldwide. In 2024 alone, there were 282 million cases of malaria reported and 610,000 deaths ...
Phys.org / Bee more specific: New radar tech could improve identification and tracking of key pollinators
Scientists from Trinity and Technical University of Denmark have developed a new radar-based technique that could address a critical gap in global conservation efforts, by transforming how we identify and track the insects ...
Science X / Think your gaze is steady? Think again. (And thank your wobbly eyes for sight)
Try to focus on one thing, and your eyes will keep moving around very slightly, even if you think you're holding them still. Such movements are called "fixational eye movements" (FEMs). Scientists have been trying to determine ...
Phys.org / Non-rotating early galaxy is a surprise to astronomers
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have made a surprising discovery about a galaxy long, long ago and far, far away: It isn't rotating. That's something only seen in the most massive, mature galaxies that are ...
Phys.org / A close brush with Mars will reshape NASA's Psyche journey in a way few missions attempt
NASA's Psyche spacecraft will get a boost from Mars on Friday, May 15, passing just 2,800 miles (4,500 kilometers) from the planet's surface at some 12,333 mph (19,848 kph). The spacecraft will harness the planet's gravitational ...
Medical Xpress / Why weight gain fears matter in recovery: 10-week program helps women build healthier habits
A recent study in the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior examined the impact of the Healthy Steps to Freedom (HSF-10) program on nutrition, body image, and health-related behaviors among 607 women undergoing treatment ...
Phys.org / Scientists trace latest interstellar comet's home to a cold, isolated corner of the Milky Way
The comet that rambled past us from another star last year likely originated in a cold, isolated corner of the galaxy that had yet to gel into its own solar system, astronomers reported Thursday.
Phys.org / Genetics link Angola's 'ghost elephants' to populations hundreds of miles away
For more than a decade, conservation biologist Steve Boyes searched for "ghost elephants"—nocturnal giants rumored to roam a remote, high-altitude wetland in eastern Angola. When a motion-sensor camera finally captured their ...
Phys.org / AI cuts wildlife tracking time from months to days
Artificial intelligence can dramatically speed up the painstaking work of tracking wildlife with remote cameras, cutting analysis time from months or even a year to just days while producing nearly the same scientific conclusions ...
