Medical Xpress / FDA green lights Bizengri drug to treat rare, aggressive bile duct cancer
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Bizengri to treat an ultra-rare, aggressive cancer that forms in the bile ducts.
Phys.org / Why ocean warming experiments may be making misleading predictions
Accurate experiments on how ocean warming affects marine life are vital to ensure we can best prepare for the future, protect our food sources, and help safeguard ocean ecosystems. But some of these experiments may miss how ...
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 / Testing quantum collapse theory with the XENONnT dark matter detector
Theories of quantum mechanics predict that some particles can exist in superpositions, which essentially means that they can be in more than one state at once. When a particle's state is measured, however, this superposition ...
Phys.org / New alien-life test could help Mars and Europa missions read organic molecules
For decades, the search for life beyond Earth has revolved around a key question: What molecules should scientists be looking for on other planets or moons? A new study, published in Nature Astronomy, suggests that the more ...
Medical Xpress / Call for coordinated action to close Africa's bone health gap
A new editorial appearing in Osteoporosis International, titled "Beyond the fracture: coordinated action for bone health equity in Africa," sets out a roadmap to address osteoporosis and fragility fractures across the continent. ...
Phys.org / Resilient quantum sensor monitors Earth's magnetic field from space for 10 months
From navigation to solar weather forecasting, many different areas of research require space-based sensors to measure Earth's magnetic field as accurately as possible at any given moment. So far, however, existing sensors ...
Phys.org / Antarctica sea ice collapse driven by triple whammy of climate chaos, scientists find
Antarctica is being ravaged by a triple-whammy of climate chaos that has melted sea ice to record lows, a new study has revealed. For decades, the frozen wilderness at the bottom of the world defied global warming trends, ...
Phys.org / Buried in Sudan's desert, 280 vast stone circles reveal a vanished cattle-herding culture
Recent satellite remote sensing surveys have identified 280 stone structures spread across the Atbai desert in Sudan. Twenty of these structures were previously identified by fieldwork or informal surveys, but were not systematically ...
Phys.org / More Star Wars-like worlds emerge as 27 planet candidates with two suns discovered
There's so little we know about circumbinary planets—planets that orbit two stars instead of one—that they can feel like the stuff of fantasy. And for good reason: to date, we've only confirmed the existence of 18 circumbinary ...
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 / Why twisted bilayer graphene stops superconducting near high-dielectric substrates
Superconductors are materials that can conduct electricity with a resistance of zero. In so-called conventional superconductors, this occurs at low temperatures when electrons become bound into pairs, known as Cooper pairs.
