Tech Xplore / Nature-inspired 3D printing could improve large-scale renewable energy storage
Researchers have created a 3D-printed electrode that could help make it easier and safer to store large amounts of renewable energy generated by wind and solar farms.
Phys.org / Bees see the world in more ways than previously thought
The honey bee has held a special place in vision research. It is one of the best-studied insects, and much of what scientists know about how bees perceive the world is based on studies of honey bees.
Phys.org / New AI model maps the ion binding sites that control how proteins work
Researchers at Constructor University and Constructor Labs have developed BiteNetI, a deep-learning model that locates the binding sites of 14 biologically important ion types directly in three-dimensional protein structures. ...
Tech Xplore / Digital brain twins hinge on what living brains reveal, not computing power alone
Researchers from the University of Warwick report that how faithfully we can build a "digital twin" of a human brain depends not only on computing power but fundamentally on how much of the living brain we can measure, validate ...
Medical Xpress / Research identifies lasting brain changes associated with adolescent binge alcohol exposure
New research from the Marshall University Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine provides insight into how binge alcohol exposure during adolescence may cause lasting changes in brain function that persist into adulthood, potentially ...
Medical Xpress / How melanoma silences the skin's natural antitumor defense
Cancers actively remodel their surrounding cells and tissues to create a microenvironment that favors their growth, survival and spread. Melanoma, a cancer of the pigment-producing melanocytes of the skin, is one of the most ...
Phys.org / Peacemaker program linked to 61% decline in gun violence deaths and injuries
A new study by researchers at UC Berkeley's Center for Global Healthy Cities, published in JAMA Network Open, found that the California city of Richmond's Office of Neighborhood Safety (ONS) was responsible for a 61% reduction ...
Medical Xpress / New screening platform links molecule clusters to neurodevelopmental disorders
When drops of oil are added to water, the oil and water remain separate. Within cells, biological molecules cluster together in a similar way, separating themselves from the rest of the cell. And while they don't have a membrane, ...
Medical Xpress / One flash of red light could check health of bioprinted tissue and implants
Using 3D printers to create complex structures from biocompatible materials that can include living cells has the potential to revolutionize medicine. This process—3D bioprinting—has powered breakthroughs in tissue engineering, ...
Phys.org / Largest review finds formal ethics education improves students' moral reasoning
How important is it that kids learn to tell right from wrong? Businessman and former university chancellor David Gonski recently called for ethics classes to be rolled out in all Australian schools to boost social cohesion.
Medical Xpress / Stress proteins actively sustain joint inflammation in osteoarthritis, study finds
Why do some joints remain chronically inflamed in osteoarthritis and other rheumatic diseases? Researchers have taken an important step toward answering this question. Their findings, published in the journal Cell Death & ...
Medical Xpress / Dozens of genes tied to OCD and tic disorders discovered
A Rutgers-led international collaboration has identified 36 genes that substantially raise the risk of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and chronic tic disorders—providing, two researchers said, the most detailed biological ...
