Medical Xpress / In reversal, US agrees to review new Moderna flu shot
Vaccine manufacturer Moderna said Wednesday the US Food and Drug Administration walked back its previous position and agreed to review the company's new mRNA-based flu shot.
Phys.org / Proton's width measured to unparalleled precision, narrowing the path to new physics
Physicists in Germany have carried out the most accurate measurement to date of the width of the proton. By examining a previously unexplored energy-level transition in the hydrogen atom, Lothar Maisenbacher and colleagues ...
Medical Xpress / Kenya to roll out HIV prevention shots in March
Kenya will roll out a groundbreaking new HIV-prevention drug in March across 15 priority regions, the health ministry said on Wednesday.
Medical Xpress / Antimicrobial resistance in foodborne bacteria remains a public health concern in Europe
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in common foodborne bacteria such as Salmonella and Campylobacter continues to be a public health concern across Europe, according to a new joint report from the European Food Safety Authority ...
Phys.org / Widespread 'enhanced rock weathering' could slow global warming
It's one of the latest technologies for sequestering carbon: crush silicate rocks, add to crop soil, and let the rock dust naturally react with carbon dioxide. The reactions bind carbon into stable mineral forms that can ...
Tech Xplore / California regulators decide not to suspend Tesla sales in the state
California regulators said on Tuesday that Tesla had stopped misleading drivers about the safety of its cars and so has decided not to suspend its license to sell in the state for 30 days.
Phys.org / Bacterial strain from 5,000-year-old cave ice shows resistance against 10 modern antibiotics
Bacteria have evolved to adapt to all of Earth's most extreme conditions, from scorching heat to temperatures well below zero. Ice caves are just one of the environments hosting a variety of microorganisms that represent ...
Phys.org / Astronomers may have just found one of the missing links in galaxy evolution
A team of 48 astronomers from 14 countries, led by the University of Massachusetts Amherst, has discovered a population of dusty, star-forming galaxies at the far edges of the universe that formed only a billion years after ...
Phys.org / How a certain form of dark matter may lead to the generation of cosmological magnetic fields
Tiny highly uniform magnetic fields are known to pervade the universe, influencing various cosmological processes. To date, however, the physical mechanisms underpinning the generation of these fields remain poorly understood. ...
Phys.org / Physicists explain the exceptional energy-harvesting efficiency of perovskites
Despite being riddled with impurities and defects, solution-processed lead-halide perovskites are surprisingly efficient at converting solar energy into electricity. Their efficiency is approaching that of silicon-based solar ...
Phys.org / One of the ocean's saltiest regions is freshening: What it means for circulation
The southern Indian Ocean off the west coast of Australia is becoming less salty at an astonishing rate, largely due to climate change, new research shows.
Phys.org / The Hubble tension: How magnetic fields could help solve one of the universe's biggest mysteries
It's well established that the universe is expanding, but there's serious disagreement among scientists over how fast it's happening.
