Phys.org / Wheat root compounds suppress soil microbes, helping retain nitrogen and cut emissions
On a quiet weekend morning in a greenhouse in Aarhus University Flakkebjerg, rows of wheat plants stand with their roots submerged in clear water. There is no soil, no buffer, no automation to take over the work. Every day, ...
Medical Xpress / Implementing all recommended drug guidelines for heart failure could reduce hospitalizations and cut costs
Patients hospitalized with a common form of heart failure could avoid later hospital stays—and dramatically lower health care costs—if they receive the full combination of four medications currently recommended in national ...
Medical Xpress / A hidden DNA genome protector may explain why health and aging differ between men and women
How diseases develop and how the body ages can differ between females and males, but the biological reasons for these differences are not fully understood. Researchers are studying the role of sex chromosomes to better understand ...
Phys.org / Study shows gains in preschoolers' executive function with additional teacher training
Research shows that when preschool teachers participate in professional learning workshops and ongoing coaching with experienced early childhood educators, students improve their language and literacy skills, as well as their ...
Phys.org / Lab-created 'moon' rock could help scientists interpret lunar data and explore how water might form on the moon
The moon may look unchanged from afar, but its surface is constantly reshaped by microscopic impacts and a steady stream of particles from the sun, a process known as space weathering. Now, Georgia Tech researchers have recreated ...
Phys.org / Novel catalyst design boosts solar-driven ammonia production under mild conditions
Sunlight, water, air and metal-organic catalysts—that could be all it takes. TU Wien has shown how catalyst design can be advanced for solar-driven NH3 synthesis. Without this chemical technology, feeding the world as we ...
Medical Xpress / Diet remodels chromatin structure and extends survival in models of glioma
An unexpected lab observation has led a team of scientists to discover how diet can influence survival in animal models of glioma, one of the most aggressive and deadly forms of brain cancer. Researchers at Baylor College ...
Phys.org / Human evolution was messy and gradual, not an abrupt revolution, argues archaeologist
It is generally accepted by archaeologists that modern humans originated in Africa and dispersed worldwide, while other hominins went extinct. Yet how and when Homo sapiens dispersed out of Africa, and whether it was an abrupt ...
Phys.org / Global warming hit 1.37°C in 2025, with Earth accumulating heat at an accelerating rate
Strong and consistent evidence shows that the entire climate system is continuing to heat, driving rapid global warming. Human activities pushed global warming to 1.37°C in 2025, and its level is projected to surpass 1.5°C ...
Phys.org / Hurricane rainfall and landslide risk are on the rise in Southern California
Climate change could make historically rare tropical storms in Southern California produce significantly more precipitation in the next few decades, and when they strike, landslides are likely to become a bigger risk across ...
Phys.org / AI helps reveal large-scale quantum effects hidden in stacked atomic sheets
Quantum materials are a class of exotic materials with special properties that are governed by quantum mechanics rather than classical physics. Those properties—like superconductivity, entanglement and unusual forms of magnetism—often ...
Medical Xpress / Decades-old puzzle solved as scientists uncover cause of inflammatory bowel disease
Researchers at the Nuffield Department of Medicine, University of Oxford, together with Newcastle University's Translational and Clinical Research Institute and the Department of Immunology at Cambridge University Hospitals ...
