Tech Xplore / Latest Anthropic AI model finds cracks in software defenses
Anthropic on Tuesday said its yet-to-be-released artificial intelligence model called Claude Mythos has proven keenly adept at exposing software weaknesses.
Medical Xpress / Treating tumors independently of oxygen: Photodynamic therapy uses hydrogen peroxide instead
Photodynamic treatment of cancer is based on administering an initially inactive substance that is only activated in the tumor via targeted light irradiation. It then generates reactive oxygen species that kill the cancer ...
Medical Xpress / Molecular map could unlock new treatments for heart and lung diseases
Scientists have created a new "molecular map" uncovering how an important human receptor involved in blood clotting and inflammation works—an advance that could help us design better drugs for conditions such as pulmonary ...
Medical Xpress / Detecting multiple cancers and other diseases from a single blood sample
UCLA scientists have developed a simple and cost-effective blood test that, in early studies, shows promise in detecting multiple cancers, various liver conditions and organ abnormalities simultaneously by analyzing DNA fragments ...
Phys.org / How a common herbicide affects honeybee brains and behavior
Cultivating flowering plants for pollinator gardens, commercial farms, or home landscapes often relies on the use of herbicides to manage unwanted weeds. Honeybees are attracted to these locations and play a critical role ...
Medical Xpress / Study of 633,000 people links loneliness to suicidal thoughts
Loneliness plays an important role in the development of suicidal ideation, thoughts of ending one's life, which precedes nearly every suicidal death, according to a study by researchers at Vanderbilt Health. Their findings, ...
Phys.org / Rich biodiversity found in Japan's deepest ocean trenches, including an unidentified 'mystery' species
A new study published in the Biodiversity Data Journal provides a profound look at life up to nearly 10 kilometers below the ocean's surface in the Japan, Ryukyu, and Izu-Ogasawara trenches. The research catalogs at least ...
Phys.org / Bird flu spread could be impacted by where waterfowl like to live
The movement patterns of waterfowl, including ducks, swans and geese, may affect the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza in bird populations, according to a new study from the University of Georgia. The findings are ...
Phys.org / Alignment during conversations is highly situation-dependent, study finds
When people are talking, they can start to unconsciously mirror each other, for instance, in the words they use, their sentence structures and even hand gestures. This tendency to mirror others can lead to smoother conversations, ...
Phys.org / Bennu sample reveals how water flowed through the newly forming asteroid
A team of US astronomers has carried out one of the deepest analyses to date of a sample from the asteroid Bennu, revealing new details about how water and organic material interacted during the earliest stages of the solar ...
Phys.org / Ranks of Disparity: New approach fixes flaw in fairness algorithms
As organizations increasingly rely on algorithms to rank candidates for jobs, university spots, and financial services, a new method, named hyperFA*IR, offers a more principled approach when picking candidates based on a ...
Phys.org / Social honey bees stay cool: How groups mitigate heat-triggered hormone spikes
Heat can change a honey bee's hormone levels, but only if the bee is alone. New research from MSU entomologist Zachary Huang shows that isolated honey bees experience a rapid hormonal rise when exposed to high temperatures, ...
