Medical Xpress / Scientists discover new '3D genome organizer' linked to fertility and cancer
A research team at Kyoto University has discovered STAG3-cohesin, a new mitotic cohesin complex that helps establish the unique DNA architecture of spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs), the stem cells that give rise to sperm. ...
Phys.org / Idaho poisoned Snake River for invasive mussels: Was it worth 'heartbreaking' loss?
The invasive quagga mussels found in an Idaho river in 2023 were microscopic. But to state officials, their presence was enormous.
Phys.org / Prehistoric female miners identified using multidisciplinary approach
Almost three decades ago, the chert mining area in Krumlov Forest was discovered. Since then, much has been written about the mining activity that took place here. While chert mining occurred here from as early as the beginning ...
Phys.org / What, exactly, is space-time?
Few ideas in modern science have reshaped our understanding of reality more profoundly than space-time—the interwoven fabric of space and time at the heart of Albert Einstein's theory of relativity.
Medical Xpress / GLP-1 drugs linked to reduced symptoms in chronic skin condition hidradenitis suppurativa
A multicenter French study led by Rennes University Hospital reports potential benefits of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists for hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), with statistically significant reductions in HS-related ...
Medical Xpress / Open-label Phase II trial reports early motor milestones with risdiplam
From Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Charlotte J. Sumner, M.D., presents an editorial on a study by Richard S. Finkel and colleagues, who report an open-label, Phase II trial of the pre-messenger RNA splicing ...
Phys.org / Ibex motif linked to fertility and celestial symbolism in ancient Near East art
In a new study published in L'Antropologie, Dr. Shirin Torkamandi and his colleagues, Dr. Marcel Otte and Dr. Abbas Motarjem have analyzed the symbolic meaning of bovidea, particularly the ibex, in the ancient Near East.
Phys.org / Why gold may be losing its shine as a safe-haven investment
The price of gold reached a historic high in April and remains close to that value. Conventional investing wisdom puts gold as a "safe-haven" asset—one that investors move toward in times of crises as they desert higher-risk ...
Tech Xplore / AI method reconstructs 3D scene details from simulated images using inverse rendering
Over the past decades, computer scientists have developed many computational tools that can analyze and interpret images. These tools have proved useful for a broad range of applications, including robotics, autonomous driving, ...
Phys.org / LHCb collaboration observes ultra-rare baryon decay
Baryons, composite particles made up of three quarks bound together via the so-called strong force, make up the most visible matter and have thus been the focus of numerous physics studies. Studying the rare processes via ...
Tech Xplore / Hydrogen from solar heat: Novel oxide material discovered for carbon-free hydrogen production
A research team from POSTECH and Seoul National University (SNU) has discovered a novel oxide material that can produce large quantities of clean hydrogen using only heat, without carbon emissions. The discovery, enabled ...
Phys.org / Scientists discover rare freshened water beneath the seafloor
How did freshened water end up beneath the New England Shelf miles offshore, how long has it been there, and how much of it exists?
