Phys.org / Ocean glow meets 3D printing with living gels that sense mechanical force
The integration of biological organisms into synthetic structures offers a radical new pathway for developing intelligent, self-powered materials. Researchers have pioneered an innovative approach to biomanufacturing by using ...
Phys.org / Landscape water velocities across Europe reshape nitrogen pollution risk under climate change
Nitrate pollution is a growing global environmental challenge due to the extensive use of fertilizer. A study published in Science, led by the Leibniz Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries (IGB) with the Helmholtz ...
Phys.org / Elusive Cozumel dwarf fox reappears in first confirmed photos after two decades
A publication has revealed the first photographic evidence and confirmed sighting of the Cozumel dwarf fox in more than 20 years. Published in the journal Neotropical Biology and Conservation by researchers Travis D. Bayer, ...
Phys.org / Frozen rat chromosome springs back to life inside a mouse embryo
Scientists in Japan have developed a rat-mouse hybrid embryo from a single frozen rat chromosome transplanted into a mouse egg cell. The achievement is proof that genetic material can sometimes remain functional after cryopreservation ...
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.
Phys.org / Fossil discovery shows the interaction between giant marine reptiles
Approximately 160 million years ago, during the Age of Dinosaurs, giant marine reptiles ruled the seas. One such creature, an ichthyosaur, swam in a sea near present-day Peterborough, England. This huge animal, shaped like ...
Tech Xplore / Copper thin films reveal ballistic electron transport that could reshape future chip wiring
A joint research team has experimentally observed ballistic transport in single-crystalline copper thin films, demonstrating that ballistic transport is achievable in an industry-standard metal at interconnect-relevant dimensions. ...
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 / Traditional tertiary teaching models shortchanging neurodivergent students in health care studies
Recent Deakin research into the experiences of neurodivergent students studying for future health care careers showed many experience stigma, inadequate help in classroom and clinical settings, and hard-to-navigate support ...
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 / New art test could help museums spot fake Van Goghs without touching paintings
A new study published in the peer-reviewed journal Surface Topography: Metrology and Properties introduces a pioneering, noninvasive technique that can distinguish authentic artworks from forgeries, offering museums, collectors, ...
Tech Xplore / Sonar–camera system sees through murky waters
For remotely operated underwater vehicles, cloudy and turbulent waters are often a no-go. When vehicles settle on the seafloor or dig through a sand bed, they can kick up clouds of sediment that make it tough for onboard ...
