Medical Xpress / National climate plans recognize health risks, yet few protect most vulnerable groups
The majority of national climate adaptation plans fail to fully integrate health needs or engage populations most at risk from climate change, an international team of investigators led by Weill Cornell Medicine found.
Medical Xpress / New cardiac rehab model could save South Australia up to $10 million a year
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is strongly recommended after heart events and procedures, yet remains underused, with only 20%–50% of eligible patients participating—despite well-established recovery benefits.
Phys.org / New art test could help museums spot fake Van Goghs without touching paintings
A new study published in the peer-reviewed journal Surface Topography: Metrology and Properties introduces a pioneering, noninvasive technique that can distinguish authentic artworks from forgeries, offering museums, collectors, ...
Phys.org / AI helps reveal large-scale quantum effects hidden in stacked atomic sheets
Quantum materials are a class of exotic materials with special properties that are governed by quantum mechanics rather than classical physics. Those properties—like superconductivity, entanglement and unusual forms of magnetism—often ...
Medical Xpress / Hard-to-detect prostate cancer may grow through cancer-stroma KRAS signaling
A research team at Kanazawa University, led by Professor Atsushi Mizokami, Associate Professor Koji Izumi and Specially Appointed Assistant Professor Taiki Kamishima (a fourth-year doctoral student at the Graduate School ...
Medical Xpress / AI chatbots mimic fear, sadness and stress, then calm down after mindfulness exercise
Large language models (LLMs) can replicate human emotions like fear, sadness and anxiety, and be "calmed down" by a breathing exercise, suggests a study published in The Lancet Digital Health. This means LLMs could potentially ...
Medical Xpress / Moment-to-moment memory access may depend on histamine neuron swings
The same memory can feel vivid and accessible one moment, yet stubbornly out of reach the next—even when the memory itself remains intact. A research team led by Professor Hiroshi Nomura at the Institute of Brain Science, ...
Tech Xplore / Ultra-thin MoS₂ computer packs 1,400 transistors onto one chip
The rapid advancement and diffusion of artificial intelligence (AI) systems, such as the machine learning models underpinning the functioning of ChatGPT, Gemini and similar platforms, have posed new demands on the electronics ...
Medical Xpress / Video: Wildfire smoke's effects on childhood asthma
Last summer, smoke from Canadian wildfires blanketed Vermont, darkening the sunset and significantly reducing air quality. But Anna Maassel, a Ph.D. candidate in the Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources ...
Phys.org / Coastal land shifts reveal faster local sea level rise than expected
For almost a century, researchers have known that vertical land motion—the lifting and sinking of the ground—affects sea level locally. As the ground sinks, the sea level rises relative to the land. Scientists also assumed ...
Phys.org / Newfound sound wave scattering rule may lead to less bulky, more effective soundproofing
Researchers in China recently uncovered a quantum-inspired rule governing how sound is scattered by certain physical properties of a material. Their research, published in Physical Review Letters, may lead to the ability ...
Phys.org / SpaceX IPO set for liftoff in record market debut
Elon Musk's SpaceX was set to begin trading on the Nasdaq exchange Friday, with the biggest initial public offering in history expected to make the polarizing entrepreneur the world's first trillionaire.
