Medical Xpress / Exercise has 'similar effect' to therapy, study on depression shows
The estimated 280 million people worldwide who suffer from depression could have a treatment option that is not only cheaper than therapy and antidepressants, but that also makes them fitter and stronger.
Tech Xplore / New method helps AI reason like humans without extra training data
A study led by UC Riverside researchers offers a practical fix to one of artificial intelligence's toughest challenges by enabling AI systems to reason more like humans—without requiring new training data beyond test questions.
Medical Xpress / Experimental CAR T therapy targets tumor's immune shield, not cancer cells directly
Scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have developed an experimental immunotherapy that takes an unconventional approach to metastatic cancer: instead of going after cancer cells directly, it targets the ...
Medical Xpress / Advancing the realization of oral insulin using novel peptide technology
For more than a century, oral insulin has been considered a "dream" therapy for diabetes, hindered by enzymatic degradation in the digestive tract and the absence of a dedicated intestinal transport mechanism. Consequently, ...
Tech Xplore / GNSS-only method delivers stable positioning for autonomous vehicles in urban areas
Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) are vital for positioning autonomous vehicles, buses, drones, and outdoor robots. Yet its accuracy often degrades in dense urban areas due to signal blockage and reflections.
Phys.org / Massive cloud with metallic winds discovered orbiting mystery object
Sweeping winds of vaporized metals have been found in a massive cloud that dimmed the light of a star for nearly nine months. This discovery, made with the Gemini South telescope in Chile, one half of the International Gemini ...
Phys.org / Ion accumulation in liquid–liquid phase separation regulates biomolecule localization, finds study
Researchers have identified a new physicochemical principle governing liquid–liquid phase separation in polymer solutions. Their research demonstrates that during the separation of a polymer mixture into two fluid phases, ...
Medical Xpress / Lack of employee flexibility to attend health care appointments during work hours has knock-on health impacts
Restricted access to health care appointments during typical working hours leads to poorer health-related quality of life, a University of Manchester–led study has found. The research explores how being unable to attend ...
Tech Xplore / New model reveals significant energy requirement of rapid fossil fuel phase-out
A substantial "transition energy" is required to phase out fossil fuels in the European Union, a study by Imperial College London has found, revealing that faster transitions demand significantly larger, and potentially disruptive, ...
Phys.org / Is AI a bubble that might burst?
It is hard to imagine that anyone could have missed the fact that such economic crashes occur from time to time—crashes that could have terrible consequences for individuals and society. In recent history, many vividly ...
Phys.org / The hidden microbial communities that shape health in space
Microorganisms live in biofilms—the equivalent of microbial "cities"—everywhere on Earth. These city-like structures protect and house microbial communities and play essential roles in enabling human and plant health ...
Phys.org / Safeguarding health for animals and people: Veterinary hospitals make use of UV-C robots and creative education
Drug-resistant bacteria are one of the most urgent health challenges of our time, affecting people, animals, and the environments they share. The University of Pennsylvania's School of Veterinary Medicine (Penn Vet) is addressing ...
