Medical Xpress / New imaging method tracks cancer from whole body to individual cells
One of the biggest challenges in cancer research has been linking the "big picture" seen in medical scans with the microscopic biology that drives tumor growth and dictates how patients respond to treatment. Now, by combining ...
Phys.org / Nearby rocky planet may be replenishing helium from atmosphere, study finds
Nearly a decade after the discovery of LHS 1140b, a rocky exoplanet in the habitable zone of a nearby low-mass star, a new study reveals that the object may have its own atmosphere.
Phys.org / Image: The growing crescent of Mars as NASA's psyche mission approaches
This composite of images taken by NASA's Psyche mission shows the crescent of Mars grow as the spacecraft approached the planet for a gravity assist from May 2 to May 15, 2026.
Phys.org / Underwater oxygen loss threatens earth's stability, researchers warn
A new review in Limnology and Oceanography led by scientists at UC San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography warns that the rapid loss of oxygen from the ocean and other aquatic ecosystems is pushing Earth toward an ...
Medical Xpress / When healing injuries, timing of regenerative cues matters
For decades, medicine has chased a simple but elusive goal of delivering the right drug to the right place at the right time. New research from the University of Oregon suggests that when it comes to healing from injury, ...
Phys.org / Alien world chemistry found inside meteorite that struck New Jersey home
On July 16, 2024, a daytime meteor shook New York City with a sonic boom as it passed just south of the Statue of Liberty. Now, an international team of researchers reports in the journal Science Advances that a short time ...
Phys.org / New optical chip design controls light speed in real time, simulations suggest
Seoul National University College of Engineering announced that a joint research team led by Professor Namkyoo Park and Professor Sunkyu Yu of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at SNU, in collaboration ...
Phys.org / Ultraviolet light uncovers the first known juveniles of a mysterious Jurassic fish family
For more than 150 years, fossils of Jurassic fish scattered across Europe's museums were studied and drawn by generations of scientists. However, when a paleontologist decided to shine an ultraviolet light on them, a hidden ...
Medical Xpress / Rapid magnetic brain stimulation eases depression within days, but benefits fade within weeks
Despite decades of advances in mental health care, depression remains one of the world's most disabling conditions. Many people with major depressive disorder (MDD) fail to find lasting relief from antidepressants or psychological ...
Phys.org / Scientists invent new board games to reveal how we tackle the unknown
Playing board games can be fun, challenging, infuriating and a great way to pass the time. They can also help scientists understand how we solve new problems.
Phys.org / What one of Emperor Hadrian's latrines is telling us about the durability of Roman concrete
One of the many marvels of the Roman world is that some of its buildings are still with us. But why have they lasted for so long when some relatively modern structures are in a state of decay after a few decades?
Phys.org / Heat-stressed cells use nuclear stress bodies to restart RNA splicing, study finds
If you want to beat the heat of the summer sun, slowing down and doing less is a good strategy. However, researchers have long asked whether the same occurs at the cellular level. While cellular stress responses have been ...
