Medical Xpress / Skin can 'pre-learn': Priming cells for regeneration before injury
It is well known that students who prepare in advance perform better in exams. Now, it appears that the skin can do the same. Rather than scrambling to repair itself only after injury occurs, a Korean research team has demonstrated ...
Phys.org / Knowledge firewalls inside alliance firms may weaken inventions and future breakthroughs
From the Wright brothers' first flight to the speedy development of COVID-19 vaccines, collaboration has been key to innovation. Paradoxically, even competitors can benefit from collaboration—when they hold different pieces ...
Phys.org / Electron–atom scattering encodes the quantum state of electron wave packets
A new analysis reveals what happens when very short or narrow electron beams encounter a particle. The research is published in the New Journal of Physics. Scientists should be able to achieve a new level of control over ...
Medical Xpress / AI model suggests CPAP can massively swing heart risk in sleep apnea
Mount Sinai researchers have created an analytic tool using machine learning that can predict cardiovascular disease risk in millions of patients with obstructive sleep apnea, a serious sleep disorder, according to findings ...
Medical Xpress / Maternal prepregnancy BMI, birth length linked to offspring atopic dermatitis
Increasing maternal prepregnancy body mass index (ppBMI) and increasing birth length are associated with offspring atopic dermatitis by age 3 years, according to a study published online March 23 in the Journal of Allergy ...
Phys.org / Neanderthals in Central Europe hunted pond turtles—not for food, but likely for their shells
Neanderthals hunted European pond turtles (Emys orbicularis) in Central Europe, though probably not for food. The careful cleaning of carapace elements at Neumark-Nord indicates that shells were reused, perhaps as small containers ...
Medical Xpress / Community workers sound alarm on mental health crisis for Venezuelan migrants
A new study reveals growing concern among community workers in Nariño, Colombia, about the lack of mental health support for Venezuelan migrants, especially those traveling without legal status. The study, published in PLOS ...
Phys.org / The Deep Space Network acquires Artemis II signal
The acquisition of the radio frequency signal from the Artemis II crewed mission to the moon by NASA's Deep Space Network (DSN) is indicated by the peak in the data signal shown on the top computer screen.
Phys.org / Tropical cyclone Narelle struck three major reef systems in one epic trek
Coral reefs are important in many ways, but they also play a major role in protecting much of the world's coastlines from erosion by blocking up to 90% of incoming wave energy. During a tropical cyclone, the waves breaking ...
Phys.org / New spider species in the Amazon mimics parasitic fungus
An international research team, including the Leibniz Institute for the Analysis of Biodiversity Change (LIB), has described a new species of spider from the Ecuadorian Amazon: Taczanowskia waska. The species is characterized ...
Phys.org / Artemis II: As humans return to the Moon, which of these 4 futures will we choose?
The four Artemis II astronauts who looped around the moon this week are expected to splash down soon. NASA's grand mission spells a return to human deep-space travel, with renewed interest in building a long-term moon base.
Tech Xplore / New hydrogen fuel cell design could unlock key clean energy technology
UNSW researchers have redesigned hydrogen fuel cells to solve a critical flaw, bringing clean energy for aviation, heavy transport and beyond closer to reality. Hydrogen fuel cells, using locally produced green hydrogen as ...
