Phys.org / Uncovering the evolution of Edo-period Japanese ceramic jars with AI
Archaeological artifacts offer valuable insights into the history of past societies. They reveal not only technological developments but also the changing economic systems, cultural traditions and everyday practices of the ...
Medical Xpress / AI-guided screening identifies nine drugs that may slow childhood dementia
An Australian research collaboration has identified several existing TGA-approved medicines that could help slow brain damage in children with a rare form of dementia—offering hope for faster treatment options.
Medical Xpress / World's largest psilocybin brain-imaging study maps how context reshapes psychedelic effects
A landmark five-year study by Monash University has found psychedelics reorganize brain patterns, giving clinicians powerful new insights into their therapeutic potential.
Medical Xpress / Injectable antioxidant hydrogel promotes retinal neuroprotection and visual recovery in mouse model
Researchers from National Taiwan University (NTU) and National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH) have developed an injectable antioxidant hydrogel that protects retinal neurons and promotes visual recovery following acute ...
Tech Xplore / Winter wind and solar lulls reveal Europe's need for costly backup power
This summer, record-breaking heat waves in Europe led to extreme stress on the power system, with high evening electricity prices due to air-conditioning demand, insufficient battery storage and outages at thermal and nuclear ...
Medical Xpress / Can COVID-19 change how we breathe during sleep?
COVID-19 can leave behind fatigue, breathing difficulties and neurological symptoms that persist long after the initial infection. Because these effects can also disturb sleep, researchers have questioned whether COVID-19 ...
Medical Xpress / Tutorial unites optical brain imaging tools in a single Python framework
Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) measures brain activity optically based on changes in cortical blood flow. Unlike magnetic resonance imaging, the technique is wearable, so it can be used during movement and ...
Medical Xpress / A single application of anti-mosquito coating reduces the long-term risk of dengue
A single application to water containers can significantly reduce yellow fever mosquito (Aedes aegypti) populations—and thus the spread of dengue fever—for many months. Researchers from the Faculty of Medicine at the University ...
Phys.org / Strain flips Hall signal in altermagnetic manganese telluride, suggesting a path to practical spintronics
Time-reversal symmetry is an exotic behavior found in systems whose internal physics looks different when running forward versus backward in time. For some time, physicists have searched for this behavior in systems with ...
Phys.org / Warming waters draw summer 'feeding frenzies' by whales off Greenland
The effects of global warming depend on species: The losers are legion, but a lucky few are winners. Now, researchers have shown that baleen whales are taking advantage of a newly opened-up fish bonanza in the Greenland Sea, ...
Medical Xpress / Disease tolerance research points to treatments that limit infection damage instead of killing microbes
Two identical mice experience the same deadly infection. One survives, while the other dies. Why? Scientists long thought the answer lay in the pathogen burden—the amount of harmful bacteria present in the body. They assumed ...
Medical Xpress / Patients with heart failure, caregivers, providers receptive to mobile health but adoption barriers persist
Interviews with patients hospitalized for heart failure, caregivers, providers and organizational leaders highlighted several strengths of Mighty Heart (a major clinical trial examining the effectiveness of in-home and telehealth-enabled ...
