Medical Xpress / AI identifies previously unrecognized health insights in routine sleep studies
A novel AI model can use information collected during routine sleep studies to identify patients' long-term health risks, according to a new study published in Nature Communications. Developed by a multidisciplinary research ...
Medical Xpress / Your personality changes more across your life than you think, according to new study
Personality traits have long been seen as set in stone, with many believing they stop changing once we reach adulthood. A recent study, however, challenges this long-held belief, suggesting that personality changes far more ...
Phys.org / Brittany burial mounds may hide human-shaped stones as Coëby cemetery mystery deepens
For archaeologists, the Coëby cemetery in Brittany, France, is a gold mine for research. It contains several prehistoric stone monuments and earth mounds. In a new study of two unusually large mounds, scientists may have ...
Phys.org / World Meteorological Organization says prepare for a strong El Niño
El Niño continues to intensify steadily and is expected to dominate global climate patterns in the August to October 2026 season, increasing the likelihood of above-normal temperatures across much of the world and driving ...
Phys.org / Rubin Observatory opens a deep window on a famous cosmic field
A new Vera C. Rubin Observatory image featuring hundreds of thousands of distant galaxies in and around the COSMOS field marks the observatory's first LSST Camera image and catalog release for science.
Medical Xpress / NICE referral criteria miss up to 95% of women under 50 who go on to develop breast cancer within 10 years
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) criteria used to decide who should be referred by GPs for further breast cancer risk assessment and specialist care miss up to 95% of women under 50 who will go ...
Phys.org / Researchers develop a new catalyst to convert CO₂ into ethanol using electricity
A research team led by Professor Hyoyoung Lee of the Department of Chemistry at Sungkyunkwan University has developed a new catalyst that converts carbon dioxide into ethanol with high selectivity. The study, titled "Atomic-scale ...
Phys.org / Moonlight-like fur and feathers may explain Egyptian god Thoth's two animal forms
The ancient Egyptian god of the moon had two very different faces: a crescent-beaked white bird and a silver-coated baboon. Now, researchers think they may have found the common thread connecting them all.
Medical Xpress / Mighty mitochondria: Scientists uncover new role for fighting bacterial infections, including drug-resistant superbugs
Beyond the nucleus, no other organelle in eukaryotic cells captures the public's imagination quite like mitochondria: They are the engines of cellular energy production; they possess their own DNA, and they are passed from ...
Phys.org / Physicists link the Riemann Hypothesis to phase transitions in quantum systems
A new study in Nature Communications has established a link between the Riemann Hypothesis and dynamical phase transitions in engineered quantum systems, demonstrating the effect on a quantum processor.
Phys.org / Newly unearthed mechanism that helps plants 'feel full' could help crops use fertilizer more efficiently
New York University researchers have pinpointed the molecular players responsible for plants "feeling full" once they've taken up enough nitrogen—a finding that could help scientists develop plants that absorb more nitrogen ...
Phys.org / New technique pinpoints human DNA inherited from 'ghost' ancestors
UC Berkeley researchers have identified regions of DNA that humans inherited from two unknown ancestors as a result of long-ago interbreeding among modern humans and at least four other archaic human relatives.
