Medical Xpress / Chronic traumatic encephalopathy symptom checklist misses the mark in 75% of cases, autopsies show
Most people who met proposed clinical criteria meant to identify chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) during life did not show hallmark brain changes of the disease at autopsy. The findings raise concerns that widespread ...
Phys.org / Meet the whistling mice that use inflatable air sacs to sing
Mice do more than just squeak when they want to make a noise. They can also sing. And the way they do it is different from most mammals that produce sounds by vibrating their vocal cords. When Alston's singing mouse (Scotinomys ...
Medical Xpress / 'Engineered for addiction': WHO slams soaring nicotine pouch sales
The World Health Organization issued a strong warning Friday over the rapid global expansion of nicotine pouch products, decrying the tobacco industry's aggressive marketing tactics to hook young people.
Phys.org / Dual spacecraft capture both hemispheres of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS at once
The Southwest Research Institute-led Ultraviolet Spectrograph (UVS) instruments aboard ESA's Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (Juice) spacecraft and NASA's Europa Clipper made unique observations of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS ...
Medical Xpress / Peppermint oil can lower blood pressure, clinical trial finds
Daily doses of peppermint oil have been proved to lower blood pressure for patients with mildly high readings, new research has found. A team of University of Lancashire academics discovered a daily intake of 100 microliters ...
Science X / 60 years of data reveal the biggest source of workplace stress
It's not uncommon to come across job descriptions on portals that are lengthy, yet leave the reader with little clarity about what the role actually involves. Uncertainty about one's role at work may be more damaging than ...
Dialog / Optical meta‑conveyors enable programmable nanomanipulation along arbitrary open paths
The task of gently transporting a microscopic particle from one point to another along a winding path, and then bringing it back using nothing more than a single, compact chip is a challenge we set out to address in our new ...
Phys.org / JWST spots two early black holes growing far faster than their galaxies
Astronomers have discovered two early-universe galaxies where the central black holes appear to have grown far faster than their host galaxies. Observations with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) reveal that the black ...
Phys.org / Quantum geometry provides theoretical limits on measurable properties of solids
Two RIKEN physicists have established new theoretical limits for experimentally measurable quantities by viewing solids through a lens of quantum geometry. Their results shed light both on the physics of solids and on quantum ...
Phys.org / The 'silent' invasion of a widespread freshwater jellyfish across Europe
A new study published in the journal People and Nature reveals a significant gap in public awareness regarding one of the world's most widespread invasive species: the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii. Despite ...
Tech Xplore / Quantum dot emitter delivers near-identical telecom photons at 40 million per second
Quantum technologies, devices that perform specific functions leveraging quantum mechanical effects, could soon outperform their classical counterparts on some tasks. Quantum emitters, devices that release individual particles ...
Phys.org / Chemists discover and isolate a new boron–oxygen molecule
Oxygen is a cornerstone of chemistry, largely because it is so good at building the organic molecules that make up our world. Some oxygen-based compounds called peroxides are famous for being highly reactive—they act like ...
