Phys.org / How a common herbicide affects honeybee brains and behavior
Cultivating flowering plants for pollinator gardens, commercial farms, or home landscapes often relies on the use of herbicides to manage unwanted weeds. Honeybees are attracted to these locations and play a critical role ...
Phys.org / Alignment during conversations is highly situation-dependent, study finds
When people are talking, they can start to unconsciously mirror each other, for instance, in the words they use, their sentence structures and even hand gestures. This tendency to mirror others can lead to smoother conversations, ...
Medical Xpress / Detecting multiple cancers and other diseases from a single blood sample
UCLA scientists have developed a simple and cost-effective blood test that, in early studies, shows promise in detecting multiple cancers, various liver conditions and organ abnormalities simultaneously by analyzing DNA fragments ...
Medical Xpress / Smart MRI molecules developed to detect and treat cancer
Researchers at NYU Abu Dhabi have developed smart molecules that can both detect and treat cancer, offering a safer and more precise approach to care. The research, published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, ...
Phys.org / Born to roam, built for home: New genomic insights for snapper fisheries
Snapper are central to coastal life across southern Australia, supporting fisheries, local businesses, and regional tourism. New Flinders University research has found that although snapper populations across southern Australia ...
Phys.org / 3D microscopy reveals how a tick-borne virus reshapes human cells to replicate
Researchers at Umeå University show how tick-borne viruses remodel human cells into virus factories, using an advanced microscopy method. The findings provide new insight into how the virus replicates and matures, knowledge ...
Phys.org / Molecular editing tool relocates alcohol groups to neighboring sites while preserving 3D structure
In a discovery recently published in Nature, MIT chemists led by Professor Alison Wendlandt have developed a precision technique that allows scientists to seamlessly relocate alcohol functional groups from one spot on a molecule ...
Medical Xpress / New study finds a missing link in how the brain regulates appetite
When the stomach is full, how does the brain know to stop eating? Scientists long assumed the answer lies mainly with neurons, the brain's primary signaling cells. But a new study published in the Proceedings of the National ...
Phys.org / How stem cell descendants preserve flexibility while maintaining distinct identities
Stem cells are the body's ultimate shape-shifters, sustaining tissues by balancing two competing demands: maintaining their own population and generating specialized descendants. In many tissues, some early descendants can ...
Tech Xplore / Latest Anthropic AI model finds cracks in software defenses
Anthropic on Tuesday said its yet-to-be-released artificial intelligence model called Claude Mythos has proven keenly adept at exposing software weaknesses.
Phys.org / Photos show stunning views of the moon and Earth from the Artemis II mission
The Artemis II astronauts—three Americans and one Canadian—hurtled deeper into space than any other humans during a moon flyby Monday that marks NASA's lunar comeback.
Phys.org / Bacteria are weaving forever chemicals directly into their cell membranes, study finds
University of Tennessee Knoxville professor and Goodrich Chair of Excellence in Civil Engineering Frank Loeffler and his co-authors published new research on the environmental impacts of "forever chemicals" in Nature Microbiology. ...
