Medical Xpress / Gut immune cells may help explain how B-cell depletion controls MS
B-cell depletion therapies, in which B cells of the immune system that may drive disease activity in multiple sclerosis (MS) are temporarily removed, have contributed significantly to improved treatment for patients in recent ...
Phys.org / AI agent helps prepare synchrotron X-ray experimental measurements, paving the way for autonomous operation
Artificial intelligence (AI) models are now used daily by many people worldwide, both for professional and personal purposes. Over the past decades, scientists specialized in various disciplines have also started using these ...
Phys.org / Reusable magnetic invention removes microplastics plus some PFAS from water
Microplastics are an increasing global concern, with growing evidence of their presence in water systems. RMIT University researchers have developed a water treatment material that rapidly removes micro- and nanoplastics ...
Medical Xpress / Scientists discover hidden gateways that allow the brain to clear waste
The brain continuously produces metabolic waste that must be removed to maintain healthy function. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) plays a central role in this process by carrying away proteins such as amyloid-β, phosphorylated ...
Tech Xplore / Kimi K3 intensifies pressure on Trump to confront Chinese AI competition
U.S. President Donald Trump is under pressure to respond to the growing success of Chinese AI models that many companies prefer to the more powerful, but pricier, U.S. versions from Anthropic or OpenAI.
Phys.org / 2,000 volunteers join a painstaking effort to restore massive skeleton of prehistoric predator
Volunteers armed with chisels, brushes and protective goggles chip away at rock encasing the bones of a massive prehistoric amphibian in a glass-walled laboratory on the ground floor of Warsaw's Copernicus Science Centre.
Phys.org / Reflooding the Aral Sea could prevent massive CO₂ emissions
About 90% of the Aral Sea has dried up. The exposed sediments have already released enormous amounts of carbon dioxide (748 megatons) since 1960. However, through restoration, the lake could once again become a carbon sink. ...
Phys.org / 3D-printed bioplastic pods offer new hope for seagrass restoration in Thailand
A new collaborative research project between Murdoch University and Walailak University (WU) aims to restore seagrass meadows in Thailand using 3D-printed pods made from bioplastics.
Phys.org / Water-surface vortices drive tiny rotors without electricity, magnets or chemicals
Reliably generating controlled miniature rotations has long been a challenge: Chemical propulsion systems wear out, and methods that use electric or magnetic fields require complex setups. A team from KIT's Institute of Microstructure ...
Medical Xpress / Ripples of activity in the hippocampus prepare the brain for surprising events
The human brain continuously makes predictions about future events. This process helps humans process familiar stimuli while also allowing them to direct particular attention to unexpected or unfamiliar events and derive ...
Phys.org / Frozen fiber couples light and sound 1,000 times more strongly than standard glass fibers
Researchers have developed a new type of optical fiber by freezing a glass capillary filled with liquid. It guides light and sound waves simultaneously and enables highly efficient coupling between them. The high coupling ...
Phys.org / Why some human brains can outlast other soft tissues after death
Why do some brains survive long after death when most other soft tissue decays? That's the question a research team led by Alexandra Morton-Hayward at the University of Oxford set out to answer.
