Phys.org / Greenwashing firms are scrutinized less if they are in politicians' pockets, study finds
Companies with strong political connections are more likely to escape scrutiny over greenwashing, according to new research from Durham University Business School. Greenwashing occurs when organizations overstate or misrepresent ...
Phys.org / Jellyfish reveal how rapid cell turnover may suppress early cancer growth
Although increased cell proliferation is a hallmark of cancerous tissues, in some cases it may actually protect against tumor growth, according to a new study by Caltech researchers. Using mathematical models, the work suggests ...
Tech Xplore / 'Oxygen tunnel' structure could solve 3D memory reliability problem to boost AI chip performance
As AI systems become more advanced, memory is required to transfer larger amounts of data at higher speeds. But conventional planar semiconductor scaling is running out of room. A KAIST research team has now addressed a key ...
Tech Xplore / How attackers persuade AI agents to break the rules
Today, most of us interact with AI assistants—reactive bots that wait for human instructions. Yet AI assistants are rapidly being replaced by agentic AI agents that can interact with external tools, browse the web, generate ...
Phys.org / Foldamer–protein pair unlocks precise building blocks for artificial molecular materials
Proteins form complex three-dimensional shapes and can join together to create larger structures. Researchers want to use these properties to make artificial materials. However, arranging proteins and synthetic molecules ...
Medical Xpress / Does your immune system learn like AI?
Could AI hold the key to answering questions that have stumped doctors and scientists for decades? A recent study at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) borrows concepts from machine learning to address an age-old riddle ...
Medical Xpress / New norovirus vaccine approach may shape strategies for treating other RNA viruses as well
Every RNA virus—from stomach bugs and influenza to measles and the common cold—has its own story to tell, with a unique combination of symptoms, transmission rates, duration and chemical blueprint.
Phys.org / Metastable 3D printing 'ink' enables a closed-loop material cycle
Polymers used for light-based 3D printing are very stable because of their chemical structure, but they are typically hard to recycle. A research team led by Professor Dr. Eva Blasco, a researcher at the Institute for Molecular ...
Medical Xpress / Cell-preservation technique could make CAR-T cell therapy more accessible
Immune cells that are engineered to attack cancer cells, known as CAR-T cells, are used to treat some types of blood cancer. However, only about 5% of hospitals in the United States can generate and deliver CAR-T cells to ...
Medical Xpress / Brain organoids survive nearly six years, mirroring later human development
A scientific team has shown that, under the right circumstances, 3D cell culture models of human brain tissue, known as organoids, can express features of later-stage brain development. This breakthrough could turn previously ...
Phys.org / NASA's LRO images Falcon 9 crater on moon, learns new details
Between Aug. 11–12, NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) captured a series of images of a new crater on the moon. The crater formed Aug. 5, when a SpaceX Falcon 9 upper stage impacted the surface following its Jan. 2025 ...
Phys.org / Neutron capture experiment sheds light on ancient stardust
Niobium-94, an isotope of niobium with 41 protons and 53 neutrons, is a critical crossroads in the complex nuclear processes that forge heavy elements under the intense pressures and temperatures of dying stars. In an article ...
