Medical Xpress / Scientists engineer personalized cartilage graft for infants with life-threatening airway narrowing
A study led by researchers at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) demonstrates a new method of using decellularized cartilage with patient-specific cells to help enlarge pediatric airways narrowed as a result of severe ...
Medical Xpress / Cuddling cats might make us feel worse when under stress
Researchers just got one step closer to solving the age-old question of whether cats or dogs make better pets. A team in the Netherlands set out to better understand the nuances and underlying mechanisms behind the positive ...
Phys.org / Quantum hyperdimensional computing can work 500 times faster than other methods
Cleveland Clinic researchers are unlocking quantum computing's full potential through the creation of a new computing paradigm inspired by the human brain. Fabio Cumbo, Ph.D., research associate in the lab of Daniel Blankenberg, ...
Phys.org / Webb and Hubble reveal the history of a relic of Milky Way's formation
Researchers using two of humanity's most powerful observatories—NASA's James Webb and Hubble Space Telescopes—have definitively shown that Terzan 5 is not a globular star cluster, as it was once classified, offering new insight ...
Phys.org / Physicists identify upper limit to resistivity in a pure metal
Experimental atomic physicists have discovered there is a maximum amount of electrical resistance, or resistivity, that can result from collisions between electrons.
Phys.org / Cotton's roots traced to Yucatan Peninsula, where wild gene pool runs deepest
There's nothing like this in nature, Jonathan Wendel said as he showed a visitor in his Bessey Hall office the long white puffs billowing from a cotton boll—the protective flower capsule of the plant cultivated by humans ...
Dialog / Slaughter in the water: Can the Ramsar Convention protect African waterbirds?
The Ramsar Convention is the world's longest-standing international treaty for wetland and waterbird protection. Signed in Ramsar, Iran, in 1971, the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance Especially as Waterfowl ...
Tech Xplore / Floating solar panels keep working through icy Canadian winters
To accommodate the increasing demand for clean energy, researchers have been developing floating solar panels for rivers, reservoirs and other waterways in recent years. While there is, of course, plenty of land for solar ...
Phys.org / Radiocarbon dating confirms 10,000 years of continuous human occupation in the Pyrenees
Researchers from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) have created an open database with 124 carbon-14-dated samples that have made it possible to construct the chronological sequence of 380 sites located in the Aigüestortes ...
Phys.org / Santa Cruz trail study reveals how mountain lions and outdoor recreation can safely share spaces
California's iconic Santa Cruz Mountains are an outdoor recreation wonderland. With a world-class network of hiking, mountain biking and equestrian trails, they draw millions of visitors each year from neighboring Santa Cruz, ...
Phys.org / A flexible graphene-based neural interface can 'speak and listen' to the brain
Neural interfaces are devices that can detect or modulate neuronal activity when placed in contact with the brain. They are already used to treat various conditions related to the nervous system. However, current technologies ...
Phys.org / Genome-wide analysis uncovers clues to Faroese ancestral history
Genome sequencing has revealed insights into how current-day residents of the Faroe Islands can trace their ancestry to a North Atlantic founder population and how evolutionary forces have shaped their genomes since. The ...
