Tech Xplore / Lightweight sensor tech could eliminate need for toxic aircraft de-icing fluid
Ice detection technology developed by researchers at the University of Toronto could speed up the de-icing process for aircraft and other aerospace vehicles, helping to prevent costly flight delays.
Phys.org / Hot spring bathing doesn't just keep snow monkeys warm—it can disrupt lice distribution and reshape gut bacteria
Japanese macaques, colloquially referred to as snow monkeys, famously soak in steaming hot springs during winter. It's easy to see that this helps them stay warm in cold temperatures, but a team of researchers at Kyoto University ...
Phys.org / Beyond chemistry: How mechanical forces shape brain wiring
During brain development, neurons extend long processes called axons. Axons link different areas of the brain and carry signals within it and to the rest of the body. Growing axons "wire up" the brain by following precise ...
Phys.org / To fight cancer, scientists customize cellular protein
Precise methods for shredding or repairing and replacing specific cancer-causing proteins in a malignant cell, developed at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, could have applications beyond cancer to a wide range of ...
Phys.org / With planning, birds and floating solar can coexist
Solar panels on bodies of water in the northeastern U.S. might generate renewable energy but could also carry risks for birds, especially waterbirds. Now a new study provides a data-informed approach to siting floating solar ...
Phys.org / Scientists discover a hidden RNA 'aging clock' in human sperm
Increasing paternal age has been linked to elevated health risks for the next generation, including higher risks of obesity and stillbirth. But what drives this increased risk remains unknown.
Phys.org / Multiple autonomous AI systems spontaneously collaborate to advance materials research
A joint research team from NIMS and University of Tsukuba have developed an autonomous AI network technology that allows multiple autonomous AI systems to efficiently discover new materials by spontaneously collaborating ...
Medical Xpress / New AI uncovers hidden patterns in biomedical knowledge graphs
A new artificial intelligence (AI) method called BioPathNet helps researchers systematically search large biological data networks for hidden connections—from gene functions and disease mechanisms to potential therapeutic ...
Phys.org / Direct visualization captures hidden spatial order of electrons in a quantum material
The mystery of quantum phenomena inside materials—such as superconductivity, where electric current flows without energy loss—lies in when electrons move together and when they break apart. KAIST researchers have succeeded ...
Medical Xpress / Qatari genetic map reveals over 150,000 structural variants
Research co-led by King's College London and Sidra Medicine, Qatar, has produced the most detailed map to date of large-scale genetic differences in the Qatari population, providing a clearer picture of the genetic diversity ...
Phys.org / Virtual staining advances: AI uses cell context to improve imaging accuracy
To ensure our bodies function correctly, the cells that compose them must operate properly. Imagine a cell as a bustling city where tiny parts called organelles move, reorganize, and respond to external stresses. To understand ...
Phys.org / Physicists employ AI labmates to supercharge LED light control
In 2023, a team of physicists from Sandia National Laboratories announced a major discovery: a way to steer LED light. If refined, it could mean someday replacing lasers with cheaper, smaller, more energy-efficient LEDs in ...
