A new study published in the American Journal of Physiology—Heart and Circulatory Physiology reveals that chronic kidney disease (CKD) accelerates cognitive decline through interconnected damage to the heart and brain—and ...
Phys.org / A new jaguar spotted in Arizona points to progress in the endangered species' recovery
The spots gave it away. Just like a human fingerprint, the rosette pattern on each jaguar is unique so researchers knew they had a new animal on their hands after reviewing images captured by a remote camera in southern Arizona.
Phys.org / Scientists rule out fourth neutrino in particle physics mystery
Scientists have taken a major step toward solving a long-standing mystery in particle physics, by finding no sign of the particle many hoped would explain it.
Phys.org / A brown pelican 'feeding frenzy' is an encouraging sign for the often-struggling large seabirds
On a jagged coastline in Central California, brown pelicans gather on rock promontories, packed in like edgy commuters as they take flight to feed on a vast school of fish just offshore. The water churns in whitecaps as the ...
Medical Xpress / Impaired touch perception in Alzheimer's associated with Tau pathology and lower cognitive scores
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative condition characterized by the progressive deterioration of brain cells, which prompts memory loss, a decline in mental functions and behavioral changes. Estimates suggest that ...
