Tech Xplore / Scalable thermal drawing method creates liquid metal fibers for wearable electronics
Over the past decades, many research teams worldwide have started working on electronic fibers. These are yarn-like components with electronic properties that can be weaved or assembled to create new innovative textile-based ...
Medical Xpress / Five ways microplastics may harm your brain
Microplastics could be fueling neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, with a new study highlighting five ways microplastics can trigger inflammation and damage in the brain.
Medical Xpress / H5N8 avian influenza vaccine produces robust immune responses, new study finds
Finland was the first country to offer the zoonotic avian influenza A(H5N8) vaccine manufactured by Seqirus to at-risk occupational groups following the extensive clade 2.3.4.4b A(H5N1) outbreak affecting wild birds and fur ...
Medical Xpress / Dance effective in fighting against cognitive decline in Parkinson's, study finds
A new study led by researchers at York University shows that dance can be beneficial in halting the cognitive decline associated with Parkinson's disease and, for some participants, they even showed signs of improvement. ...
Medical Xpress / Miniature microscope captures real-time voltage signals in awake animals
Researchers have built a tiny, lightweight microscope that captures neuron activity with unprecedented speed that can be used in freely moving animals. The new tool could give scientists a more complete view of how brain ...
Medical Xpress / AI uncovers how DNA architecture failures trigger blood cancer
Cancer isn't just about broken genes—it's about broken architecture. Imagine a city where roads suddenly vanish, cutting off neighborhoods from essential services. That's what happens inside cells when the 3D structure ...
Phys.org / A new look at TRAPPIST-1e, an Earth-sized, habitable-zone exoplanet
Of the seven Earth-sized worlds orbiting the red dwarf star TRAPPIST-1, one planet in particular has attracted the attention of scientists. This planet orbits the star within the "Goldilocks zone"—a distance where water ...
Tech Xplore / Reservoir thermal energy storage offers efficient cooling for data centers
The rise of artificial intelligence, cloud platforms, and data processing is driving a steady increase in global data center electricity consumption. While running computer servers accounts for the largest share of data center ...
Tech Xplore / Puerto Rico case study provides better way to plan for energy transitions
A new article published in Nature Communications offers insight into how government planners can better account for the many uncertainties that accompany the transition from fossil-fuel power systems to renewable or decarbonized ...
Tech Xplore / Iron-on electronic patches enable easy integration of circuits into fabrics
Iron-on patches can repair clothing or add personal flair to backpacks and hats. And now they could power wearable tech, too. Researchers reporting in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces have combined liquid metal and a heat-activated ...
Phys.org / NASA completes Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope construction
NASA's next big eye on the cosmos is now fully assembled. On Nov. 25, technicians joined the inner and outer portions of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope in the largest clean room at the agency's Goddard Space Flight ...
Phys.org / New massive duck-billed dinosaur species identified
There's a new dinosaur species on the block. An international team, including a biologist from Penn State Lehigh Valley, discovered that a 75-million-year-old fossil classified as a different dinosaur is its own massive, ...
