Medical Xpress / Living bandage accelerates healing across multiple wound types
Chronic wounds remain a significant clinical challenge, in part because it is difficult to deliver sustained, localized immune signals that coordinate tissue repair. While cytokines play a central role in regulating inflammation ...
Medical Xpress / Experimental mRNA vaccine shows promise against multiple Ebola strains
Scientists from China have developed a new broad-spectrum mRNA vaccine that could provide long-term protection against the most lethal family of Ebola viruses, including the Bundibugyo strain behind the current outbreak in ...
Phys.org / Ancient DNA rewrites the story of a historical Sámi burial
A new study by the University of Turku and partners provides fresh insights into an individual buried near Lake Kitka in Kuusamo, Finland, at the turn of the 17th century. DNA and isotope analyses show that the individual, ...
Phys.org / Are the chemicals around you safe? Researchers are using AI to find out
People are exposed to thousands of chemicals every day—through the products they use, the food they eat and the environments they live in—but only a fraction of those chemicals have been fully tested for safety.
Phys.org / Analysis of more than 10,000 cities reveals hidden details governments can use to better support their people
The world's urban population increased by 785 million people between 2000 and 2020, but that tells only part of the story. Now, a research team including an expert from the University of Michigan has dug into the demographics ...
Phys.org / As snow droughts continue to threaten global food security, research calls for climate-resilient agriculture practices
Global climate change is reshaping agricultural ecosystems. As warmer winters become more prevalent, snow droughts caused by insufficient snowfall are becoming more frequent. This leaves winter wheat, which relies on snow ...
Phys.org / Divers may think they protect reefs, but one unseen habit is taking a steady toll
Research at the University of Sydney has found that scuba-diving tourism—widely promoted as a sustainable way to experience coral reefs—is causing frequent and often hidden damage to fragile marine ecosystems.
Phys.org / Unearthing Namibia's forgotten genocide through forensic archaeology
The Namibian genocide was one of the first genocides of the 20th century. Between 1904 and 1908, tens of thousands of Ovaherero and Nama people were killed under German colonial rule.
Tech Xplore / Photonic chips could process light directly for AI networks thanks to a self-aligning molecule
Every second, the data behind billions of emails, TikTok videos and AI queries travels around the world as pulses of light through fiber-optic networks. Along the way, these signals pass through tiny components that act as ...
Medical Xpress / New urine test may spot autism risk in children ages two to 11, study finds
A simple urine test may help identify children at risk for autism sooner than current assessments—opening the door for earlier diagnosis and treatment, and better long-term outcomes for children who do have autism spectrum ...
Phys.org / Astrophysicists strike black gold with treasure trove of gravitational wave detections
Researchers from the University of Glasgow's Institute for Gravitational Research are celebrating the publication of a vast new treasure trove of gravitational wave detections, hailed as a milestone marking the coming of ...
Phys.org / Single tissue snapshot reveals biological processes unfolding over time
A core challenge in biology is understanding how processes in the body, such as cellular development and regeneration, unfold over long stretches of time, making them notoriously difficult to view at the molecular level. ...
