Phys.org / Many scientists now use AI but fail to disclose it, study finds
When scientists employ generative AI tools like ChatGPT to help with tasks such as editing and translation for their academic writing, many journals now ask them to disclose this assistance. The rules are intended to maintain ...
Phys.org / Lactose-free milk presents an opportunity to boost dairy consumption and coffee shop visits with coffee drinkers
For many coffee drinkers, choosing milk for their coffee shop order often involves navigating a growing list of choices, each carrying different expectations around taste, digestibility, cost, and more. A new study in the ...
Phys.org / Silicone wristbands can help scientists track people's exposure to pollutants like 'forever chemicals'
Every morning, people fasten their watch, slip on a bracelet and head out the door without thinking much about what they might encounter along the way. The air they breathe, the dust on their hands and the surfaces they touch ...
Phys.org / Herpetologists analyze population decline in regional turtle populations
Are box turtles in worse shape than herpetologists thought? University of Toledo researchers raise the question in new research published in the journal Ecology and Evolution.
Phys.org / A superradiant clock phase emerges when Rydberg atoms meet quantum light, simulations suggest
Rydberg atoms are atoms with one or more outer electrons excited to very high energy levels, which interact very strongly with each other. These atoms are widely used to run quantum simulations and develop quantum technologies, ...
Medical Xpress / Q&A: How a tiny cellular portal could open vast possibilities for medicine
Inside each of your cells lies a nucleus, its master command center. Protected inside each nucleus are your chromosomes, containing all the genetic instructions for making proteins. To keep the body operating smoothly, proteins, ...
Phys.org / Which climate policies actually make a difference? Our new analysis has the answer
Countries worldwide have dramatically ramped up their climate policies over the past two decades. The number of climate measures has quadrupled since 2000, with some datasets showing a fifteen-fold increase.
Phys.org / Most Saharan dust is generated by 'hidden thunderstorms' high above the desert
When Saharan dust reaches the UK and Europe, as a huge country-sized cloud did over the past few days, it can transform the sky. Tiny particles drifting in the atmosphere scatter blue light while allowing reds and oranges ...
Phys.org / Mixed-flower Australian honey packs a stronger anti-microbial punch
Honeybees collecting nectar from a "buffet" of Australian native plants made honey with anti-microbial abilities that is more potent than "single origin" honey made from only one source of plant or flower, a University of ...
Tech Xplore / Can people distinguish between AI-generated and human speech?
In a collaboration between Tianjin University and the Chinese University of Hong Kong, researchers led by Xiangbin Teng used behavioral and brain activity measures to explore whether people can discern between AI-generated ...
Phys.org / Plant mitochondria actively pull oxygen from chloroplasts, researchers discover
A new study from the University of Helsinki reveals how plant mitochondria draw molecular oxygen away from chloroplasts, an interaction not previously documented. The discovery sheds new light on how plants regulate oxygen ...
Medical Xpress / Preventing breast cancer resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors using genomic findings
Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) have made an important discovery about how genetic mutations in breast cancer patients can interact and drive resistance to certain drugs called CDK4/6 inhibitors. ...
