Tech Xplore / Self-regenerating catalyst overcomes key durability challenge in hydrogen energy
Imagine a catalyst that can heal itself after being damaged. A POSTECH-led research team has developed an electrocatalyst that regenerates its own metallic surface after oxidation, much like how a wound heals naturally. This ...
Medical Xpress / New antibody may boost KRAS-targeted lung cancer treatment after resistance emerges
An experimental antibody treatment that binds to a protein known as PCDH7 shrank tumors in preclinical models of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including those resistant to a targeted therapy, a study led by UT Southwestern ...
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 ...
Tech Xplore / Seeing through a robot's eyes: Augmented reality helps humans predict machine behavior
As robots increasingly move out of factories and into workplaces, hospitals, warehouses and public spaces, a simple challenge becomes increasingly important: helping people understand what those machines are about to do.
Tech Xplore / SpaceX raised $75B in record IPO—why insiders like Elon Musk are much likelier than public stock buyers to benefit
Elon Musk's SpaceX is becoming a publicly traded company after selling 555.6 million shares in what was the biggest initial public offering in history. But my new research suggests that investors who bought those shares are ...
Tech Xplore / Despite the AI hype, some experts warn of a bubble—what happens if it pops?
In the last few years, the hype around artificial intelligence has become stratospheric. Riding a wave of venture capital, tech leaders promised us AI would revolutionize work, boost productivity and lead to incredible new ...
Medical Xpress / Teaching the immune system to fight aging
Maybe we shouldn't be surprised that so-called "zombie cells" come with a catch. In response to severe damage, when cells can't recover full function but aren't ready to die, they can become senescent, in a zombie-like state ...
Phys.org / Cyclone Gabrielle-style storms may unleash tens of thousands more North Island landslides
In 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle triggered an estimated 800,000 landslides across the North Island, making it one of the most extreme landslide events ever recorded. New research by Te Whare Wānanga o Waitaha | University of Canterbury ...
Tech Xplore / Q&A: Can we trust AI models? Researchers explore the roots of chatbot errors
The rapid rise of artificial intelligence (AI) has inserted a new character into people's lives: the chatbot.
Medical Xpress / Ebola spreading into new areas in northeast DR Congo: WHO
The Ebola outbreak in the northeastern Democratic Republic of Congo is spreading into new areas, the World Health Organization warned Friday.
Phys.org / Why animal calls sound alike in time: Most species share a common communication tempo
From insects to great apes, by way of birds and fish, animals communicate through an extraordinary variety of sounds. While the pitch or timbre of their vocalizations matters, rhythm may play a more fundamental role. Scientists ...
Medical Xpress / Novel gene therapy platform restores muscle function in Duchenne muscular dystrophy model
A new treatment platform developed by researchers at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center was able to deliver messenger RNA (mRNA) of the full-length DMD gene into preclinical models of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, ...
