Medical Xpress / Engineered antibodies offer broad protection against deadly cobra toxins
A research team has developed a recombinant, nanobody-based antivenom that offers broad protection against venom from geographically diverse cobra and king cobra species in India. The study is published in Science Translational ...
Tech Xplore / New software tool lets users repair AI-generated 3D models, then fabricate them just the way they want
A guiding principle for many software engineers—"What you see is what you get" —means creating programs where the content you're editing looks the same as the final product. But when you're using generative AI (genAI) systems ...
Phys.org / AI reveals new class of cellular 'off switch' linked to cancer pathways
Cornell researchers have used artificial intelligence to uncover a previously unknown way cells control how proteins move inside them, a process essential for growth, communication and movement that is often disrupted in ...
Medical Xpress / Calorie restriction reveals a potential way to slow age-related DNA mutations
Mutations are changes in the molecular "letters" that make up DNA, the genetic blueprint for cells. Mutations build up with age in every cell when DNA is damaged or when cells make mistakes in fixing or copying it. Most mutations ...
Phys.org / Asian elephants can resist impulsive behavior, researchers find
Researchers at the CUNY Graduate Center and Hunter College have found that Asian elephants can suppress impulsive behaviors and adjust their actions when circumstances change—a cognitive ability that may help explain the ...
Tech Xplore / A 60-year-old computing strategy gets an update for AI-era data centers
When a website loads quickly or an operating system runs smoothly, you can thank caching—a widely used computing process for fast data access that works by storing frequently used pieces of data in a computer's memory.
Phys.org / Fossils from embryo to adult suggest how an enigmatic, bird-like troodontid dinosaur grew
Analysis of fossilized remains from dinosaurs known as troodontids reveals how one species' hip and leg bones may have developed over its lifespan, from embryo to adult—with potential implications for resolving longstanding ...
Phys.org / Estuary water quality trends have $100M implications, researchers find
Estuaries across the United States are facing the same trends of warming waters, algal growth and declining oxygen concentrations that threaten water quality and fish populations, regardless of geographic location, according ...
Tech Xplore / Ultrablack wool offers a sustainable route to low-cost water purification
Scientists project that by 2050, nearly half the global urban population will not have enough potable water—a 50% increase since 2016. New and sustainable methods for desalination are needed, and Cornell researchers have ...
Phys.org / Forever chemicals break apart into fluoride under UV treatment, revealing a cleanup roadmap
UC Riverside environmental engineers have identified key chemical reactions that occur when ultraviolet light is used to destroy "forever chemical" pollutants in water, providing a roadmap for developing more effective cleanup ...
Medical Xpress / Soft back belts ease everyday low back pain, 12-week trial suggests
For many in the workforce, spending hours at a computer is an unavoidable part of daily life. Sitting for prolonged periods in the same position can contribute to low back pain (LBP), which affects up to 80% of people over ...
Medical Xpress / Tiny astrocyte sensors in the brain's fear center point to a potential target for anxiety and depression
A new study led by UCLA Health researchers has identified a specific type of brain cell and a tiny structure on its surface that changes when the body is under stress, which may help explain why stress can lead to anxiety ...
