Medical Xpress / New data on spontaneous coronary artery dissection—a common cause of heart attacks in younger women
New insights into spontaneous coronary artery dissection—a devastating cause of heart attacks in young, healthy patients—were presented at the EAPCI Summit 2026.
Phys.org / Chemistry-powered 'breathing' membrane opens and closes tiny pores on its own
Ion channels are narrow passageways that play a pivotal role in many biological processes. To model how ions move through these tight spaces, pores need to be fabricated at very small length scales. The narrowest regions ...
Phys.org / Marriage or moving in? Study explains what lifts happiness after 50
Who says that butterflies in the stomach are only for the young? A new study by psychologist Iris Wahring from the University of Vienna and her international team shows that when people over 50 enter into a new relationship ...
Phys.org / New 'Mars GPS' lets Perseverance pinpoint its location within 25 centimeters
Imagine you're all alone, driving along in a rocky, unforgiving desert with no roads, no map, no GPS, and no more than one phone call a day for someone to inform you exactly where you are. That's what NASA's Perseverance ...
Phys.org / How one genome creates two distinct fungal bodies
Creatures that can change from one form to another are a staple of science fiction: Think werewolves and Transformers. Nature, too, has its shapeshifters, such as dimorphic fungi. While scientists have known for some time ...
Medical Xpress / Mint, eucalyptus and chili compounds reveal powerful synergy against inflammation in immune cells
Many everyday foods and seasonings—such as herbs, spices, and aromatic plants—contain natural compounds called phytochemicals that can regulate inflammatory pathways. For centuries, these ingredients have been used together ...
Phys.org / Plant-based material offers sustainable method of recovering rare earth element
Despite rare earth elements' importance in manufacturing cell phones, magnets and a host of other consumer and commercial electronics, the lack of a sustainable, environmentally friendly approach to obtaining these metals ...
Phys.org / Quantum simulator reveals statistical localization that keeps most qubit states frozen
In the everyday world, governed by classical physics, the concept of equilibrium reigns. If you put a drop of ink into water, it will eventually evenly mix. If you put a glass of ice water on the kitchen table, it will eventually ...
Medical Xpress / The five healthy diets that could add extra years to your life
The old saying "you are what you eat" suggests that our food choices determine our health and longevity. Now, a study published in the journal Science Advances has put some specifics on it by estimating how many extra years ...
Tech Xplore / Hydrogen-bond networks boost all-perovskite solar cell efficiency
The use of solar cells, devices that can convert sunlight into electricity, has grown exponentially over the past decades. These devices are enabling the production of clean and renewable energy, which could contribute to ...
Phys.org / Honey bees navigate more precisely than previously thought
A team from the University of Freiburg led by neurobiologist and behavioral biologist Prof. Dr. Andrew Straw studied the flight behavior of honey bees. Using a drone, the researchers tracked honey bees as they flew between ...
Phys.org / Turtles' brains shed light on evolutionary developments dating back hundreds of millions of years
A new study from the School of Neurobiology, Biochemistry, and Biophysics reveals a surprising insight into the operation of the ancestral brain: the visual cortex of turtles is capable of detecting unexpected visual stimuli ...
