Phys.org / Dolphins know how to avoid troublesome males by listening for their 'names'
When female bottlenose dolphins want to avoid males known for pushy mating behaviors, they listen out for their unique signature whistles. That's the suggestion of a study published in Proceedings of the National Academy ...
Medical Xpress / Inhibiting high levels of leukemia ABCD1 protein with jojoba could lead to new treatment option
University of Guelph research published in the journal publication Blood has uncovered a surprising weakness in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that a compound in a common skin care ingredient may be able to target.
Phys.org / Superconducting TES array X-ray spectrometer goes into operation at BESSY II
Europe's first and only TES spectrometer at a synchrotron source is now in operation at BESSY II, developed within a collaboration between the HZB, the MPI-CEC (Mühlheim-an-der-Ruhr, Germany) and the NIST (Boulder, Colorado, ...
Phys.org / LOFAR reveals spike-like repeating radio burst pairs in the solar corona
The solar atmosphere is a turbulent and magnetized environment, with the release of magnetic energy readily manifesting as emission across the electromagnetic spectrum. Solar radio emission dominates the radio sky, with the ...
Medical Xpress / Multilingual benchmark evaluates how well AI interprets clinical text and health records in nine languages
Researchers at Mass General Brigham recently developed BRIDGE, a multilingual benchmark that evaluates how well large language models (LLMs) understand clinical patient care text, including language used in electronic health ...
Medical Xpress / AI model proves to be a heavyweight in tumor assessment: Mesothelioma patients and physicians benefit
Physicians and researchers at the Netherlands Cancer Institute have developed an AI model that outperforms physicians in evaluating treatment response in pleural mesothelioma. Far more accurate than the current international ...
Phys.org / Radar echoes from Europa reveal secrets beneath the ice
A team of scientists has used NASA's Goldstone Solar System Radar and the U.S. National Science Foundation Green Bank Telescope (NSF GBT) to carry out the most extensive radar study to date of Europa, the ocean world orbiting ...
Phys.org / From 718 options to one standout, catalyst screening method reveals durable RuO₂ candidate
Why settle for a trial-and-error approach, reviewing an almost endless number of combinations, when you can systematically narrow the list to something more manageable using established data and knowledge?
Medical Xpress / Amyloid precursor protein protects neurons during nuclear waste disposal
Researchers at Niigata University's Brain Research Institute have uncovered a new function of amyloid precursor protein (APP), a molecule long studied as the precursor to amyloid-β (Aβ) in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The study ...
Phys.org / Dark matter cannot be ruled out as cause of gamma ray glow at the Milky Way's center, machine learning shows
An international research collaboration between the University of Vienna and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in the United States has used machine learning to re-examine one of the most debated signals in astrophysics. ...
Phys.org / Young disk around WRAY 15-1880 may contain a primitive planetary system
Italian astronomers have used the Very Large Telescope (VLT) to perform polarimetric observations of the star WRAY 15-1880 and its young circumstellar disk. Results of the new observations, presented June 10 on the arXiv ...
Phys.org / Thawing permafrost may trigger overlooked carbon sink in rivers
A new study published in Nature shows that rock weathering increasingly counteracts river CO2 emissions as permafrost degrades. The study was carried out by a collaborative team of researchers from Umeå University in Sweden ...
