Phys.org / Ammonia levels in urine could serve as marker for chronic kidney disease in dogs
Dogs with lower urine ammonia-to-creatinine ratios (UACR) may suffer from faster progression of kidney disease and higher fatality rates, according to new research from North Carolina State University. The work suggests that ...
Phys.org / An AI solution to an 80‑year‑old problem has shocked mathematicians
Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) models had found a counterexample to a famous conjecture made by legendary Hungarian mathematician Paul ...
Phys.org / Training, not silence: With support, teachers can address racism, xenophobia in any classroom
Teachers can address structural racism and xenophobia with students of any age and in any subject when schools provide training, materials, and professional support, say University of Michigan researchers.
Science X / Your brain doesn't forget when you forgive—it does something far more surprising with those painful memories
Forgiving someone might not erase painful memories, but it can subtly update them, making past hurts feel less upsetting. It's less "forgive and forget," and more "forgive and update."
Phys.org / Monkey see, monkey do: Study sheds light on cooperative decision-making
The old "monkey see, monkey do" adage may rest on some neuroscientific evidence, finds a new Yale study. To examine how the primate brain facilitates cooperative behavior among individuals during social interaction, a team ...
Medical Xpress / New study points to possible new treatment for rheumatoid arthritis
There is good news for patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Research from Aarhus University and Aarhus University Hospital may have opened the door to an entirely new way of reducing inflammation in the joints. The study is ...
Medical Xpress / AI maps brain waste-clearing flow, revealing two speeds tied to deep sleep
When a person goes into deep sleep, waterlike fluid circulates around the brain, washing away metabolic waste that is linked to diseases such as Alzheimer's. This process, known as the glymphatic system, was first described ...
Medical Xpress / How an aging immune system loses control over the gut microbiome
Trillions of microorganisms live in the human gut, collectively forming the gut microbiome. They support important bodily functions, including digestion, metabolism, and the immune system. While this microbial community remains ...
Phys.org / Taller structures produce more blaze-spreading embers, research suggests
Test burns involving wooden structures of varying heights suggest taller buildings tend to be more prolific producers of the wind-carried firebrands that are a leading cause of structure ignition in wildfires. The findings, ...
Tech Xplore / Quantum computing may need far more than power as future data centers scale up
As quantum computing moves closer to large-scale deployment, new research is examining its future energy, water, and material demands.
Phys.org / DNA 'nicks' make for safer, more precise genetic analysis
Researchers at Cornell University have developed a safer and more precise way to study how genes function in living tissues by refining a recently developed CRISPR-based genetic technique in fruit flies, enabling researchers ...
Tech Xplore / Safer all-solid-state sodium battery could cut grid storage costs and reduce lithium dependence
Lithium-ion batteries dominate the market for large-scale energy storage today. However, the element's uneven global distribution and rising costs are driving the search for alternatives. Sodium is roughly a thousand times ...
