Phys.org / Improved climate forecasts alone won't protect Africa's poorest farmers
As Africa prepares for the arrival of a powerful El Niño weather event, an international team of researchers led by the University of Sydney and Imperial College London has found that access to improved forecasts alone will ...
Phys.org / Researchers pinpoint key early-universe measurement with record precision
An international team, including researchers from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, has reached a major milestone in "precision cosmology" by measuring the amount of helium created in the universe's first five minutes ...
Medical Xpress / New US Medicare pricing policies could reshape global pharmaceutical markets
A new modeling study published in The Lancet suggests that U.S. Medicare's new "Most-Favored-Nation" pricing policy, which ties what Medicare pays for medicines to prices charged in other high-income countries, could push ...
Medical Xpress / Time-restricted eating provides modest weight loss benefits for adults with obesity and prediabetes
A Johns Hopkins Medicine study reports evidence that time-restricted eating (TRE)—a form of intermittent fasting that involves eating only during a consistent daily 8–10-hour window—can cause modest weight loss in adults ...
Medical Xpress / Magnetic pulses reprogram immune cells to fight breast cancer in preclinical models
Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have demonstrated an innovative approach for targeted breast cancer therapy using pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs). The NUS team successfully reprogrammed tumor-associated ...
Phys.org / Researchers invent novel eDNA membrane to advance understanding of inshore fish diversity
Monitoring marine life helps scientists track ecosystem health, improve conservation and manage fisheries. A promising approach is environmental DNA (eDNA), which refers to trace genetic material naturally released into the ...
Tech Xplore / Observing Earth from orbit is unpredictable and messy: Could 'liquid' AI clear the view?
Monitoring Earth from above is a messy, inconsistent business. Clouds can block a satellite's view, the angle of the sun can create huge shadows, and orbital paths might not take a system across the same general area for ...
Medical Xpress / Masked antibodies may open intracellular treatment route for Parkinson's disease
Over the past few decades, antibody-based therapies have revolutionized modern medicine and are now widely used to treat cancer, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory disorders and even infectious diseases. Despite their success, ...
Medical Xpress / New calculator predicts chances of conceiving naturally in couples with fertility problems
A new tool has been developed by scientists at the University of Aberdeen and NHS Grampian to help couples experiencing fertility problems predict their chances of conceiving a baby naturally before embarking on IVF treatment.
Phys.org / AI helps microscopes find the most informative nanoscale features in a sample
Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have developed an artificial intelligence framework that helps researchers use atomic force microscopes to identify important nanoscale features ...
Phys.org / Continuous video of black hole radio observations challenges shock wave theory
For years, scientists have relied primarily on radio imaging from techniques like very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) to study jets from the active galactic nuclei of supermassive black holes. This allows for the detection ...
Phys.org / Ancient armored fish evolved two distinct ways to crush prey 385 million years ago
Long before dinosaurs appeared on Earth, fierce predatory fish developed crushing jaws and sharp teeth to survive and diversify in ancient oceans.
