Phys.org / How to test your lawn for grubs and what to do if you find them
What does it mean when brown patches show up in a perfectly healthy lawn? The truth is, it could be anything from drought to dog urine, fungal diseases, pests or too much fertilizer. But many homeowners automatically blame ...
Phys.org / Oral nanomedicine improves cancer immunotherapy by harnessing gut bacterial metabolite
A joint research team—led by professor Young Seok Cho from the School of Medicine, alongside professor James J. Moon from the University of Michigan—has developed the world's first oral, microbiome-based nanomedicine. By ...
Phys.org / Rescued platypuses quickly return to normal lives after five months in captivity
Platypuses rescued during a severe drought quickly returned to their old routines after being released back into the wild, suggesting emergency rescues can help protect vulnerable populations.
Phys.org / New optical method reveals internal dynamics of elusive Wigner crystals
Researchers at the University of Basel and the Technical University of Munich have developed a new method to reveal the collective motion of electrons in one of the most elusive states of matter: the Wigner crystal. Using ...
Medical Xpress / Sleep could help identify people at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease at an earlier stage
What if certain signs of the disease were to manifest subtly during sleep, long before the first memory problems appear? This is the line of inquiry being explored by a team of researchers at ULiège.
Medical Xpress / Prostate cancer prognosis linked to prostate-specific antigen levels below threshold
After treatment for metastatic prostate cancer, a drop in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels in the blood is an indicator that treatment is working. A recent real-world study indicates that reaching a PSA level below ...
Science X / A baby's lungs may begin responding to vitamin D sooner than scientists once thought
Many pregnant women around the world are low in vitamin D. This is a very common issue that has prompted inquiries over the years. It is believed that low levels in pregnant women can cause harm to fetal development. Currently, ...
Medical Xpress / Single-cell atlas reveals how spinal neurons help coordinate walking and other rhythmic movements
Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital created a single-cell atlas of a key class of spinal neurons involved in motor coordination. From that resource, they identified a small subgroup of interneurons associated ...
Tech Xplore / With a feel for physics, AI models simulate a wider range of real-world scenarios
Artificial intelligence models are jacks of many trades, including writing, generating images, and creating 3D models. But they aren't as helpful when it comes to testing robots or designs for vehicles in diverse environments, ...
Medical Xpress / MRI model reveals microstructural brain changes linked to Huntington's disease
Researchers have shown that an imaging model can detect microstructural abnormalities in the brain associated with Huntington's disease, potentially offering a new method for monitoring disease progression and evaluating ...
Tech Xplore / Neutral salt layer could address one of perovskite solar cells' biggest drawbacks
One of the most promising technologies is perovskite solar cells. They are highly efficient at converting sunlight into electricity, can be manufactured as thin and flexible devices, and require less energy and lower production ...
Medical Xpress / Cells' own abnormal RNA may trigger inflammation during viral infection, challenging 20 years of assumptions
New research led by the Hudson Institute of Medical Research has shown how a cell recognizes that it is infected with a virus to protect itself and surrounding cells or induce inflammation. The discovery, published in Nature ...
