Phys.org / Study of deadly dog cancer reveals new clues for improved treatment
Researchers at the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine and the UF Health Cancer Center have identified a crucial link between a gene mutation and immune system signaling in canine hemangiosarcoma, a discovery ...
Medical Xpress / Biosensing platform simultaneously detects vitamin C and SARS-CoV-2
In the COVID-19 pandemic era, at-home, portable tests were crucial for knowing when to wear a mask or isolate at home. Now, Penn State engineering researchers have developed a portable and wireless device to simultaneously ...
Phys.org / X-ray observations uncover merger process in a nearby low-mass galaxy cluster
Using NASA's Chandra and ESA's XMM-Newton spacecraft, an international team of astronomers have performed X-ray observations of a nearby low-mass galaxy cluster designated PSZ2 G181.06+48.47. The observational campaign, detailed ...
Phys.org / New findings shed light on cell health: Key insights into the recycling process inside cells
A recent study from Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, India has revealed new details about how our cells clean up and recycle waste. This process, known as autophagy, is like a self-cleaning mechanism for cells, ...
Phys.org / Newly fabricated crystals control interactions between high-frequency phonons and single quantum systems
Phonons, the quantum mechanical vibrations of atoms in solids, are often sources of noise in solid-state quantum systems, including quantum technologies, which can lead to decoherence and thus adversely impact their performance.
Medical Xpress / Drawing a line from the gut microbiome to inflammation and depression
It's become increasingly clear that the gut microbiome can affect human health, including mental health. Which bacterial species influence the development of disease and how they do so, however, is only just starting to be ...
Phys.org / Looking to Kenya's Lake Victoria and cyanobacteria for what may come for Lake Erie
To try to understand how harmful algal blooms might evolve in Lake Erie in a warming climate, University of Michigan scientists helped conduct a survey of cyanobacteria in a gulf of Kenya's Lake Victoria.
Phys.org / Extreme climate pushed thousands of lakes in West Greenland 'across a tipping point,' study finds
West Greenland is home to tens of thousands of blue lakes that provide residents with drinking water and sequester carbon from the atmosphere. Yet after two months of record heat and precipitation in fall 2022, an estimated ...
Phys.org / City-dwelling spur-winged lapwings move around more than their rural counterparts
Researchers from Tel Aviv University's School of Zoology have studied the behavior and movement of the common spur-winged lapwing and compared the habits of "urban lapwings" to those of their "rural" counterparts.
Medical Xpress / New effective treatment for deadly pancreatic cancer may be on its way
Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest of all cancers. Only 12% of men diagnosed with pancreatic cancer are alive five years after diagnosis; for women it is 14%.
Phys.org / Large bipedal dinosaur footprints discovered: Possible evidence of Mongolian giant Saurolophus
A joint dinosaur survey conducted by Okayama University of Science (OUS) and the Institute of Paleontology, Mongolian Academy of Sciences, has uncovered one of the largest hadrosaurid footprints ever found, measuring 92 cm ...
Phys.org / Novel perovskite growth method leads to ultrahigh-resolution micro-LED displays
Microscale light-emitting diodes (micro-LEDs) are emerging as a next-generation display technology for optical communications, augmented and virtual reality, and wearable devices. Metal-halide perovskites show great potential ...
