Medical Xpress / Genetic testing reveals often-overlooked fungal infections in California clinics
A new study reveals that a rarely-diagnosed and frequently drug-resistant species, Aspergillus tubingensis, may be one of the most common causes of fungal infections in Southern California.
Medical Xpress / Experimental drug repairs DNA damage caused by common diseases
Cedars-Sinai scientists have developed an experimental drug that repairs DNA and serves as a prototype for a new class of medications that fix tissue damage caused by heart attack, inflammatory disease or other conditions.
Phys.org / Pinning down spinless glueballs: New look at hidden structure inside subatomic particles
SUNY Poly Professor of Physics Dr. Amir Fariborz recently published a paper in Physical Review D titled "Spinless glueballs in generalized linear sigma model." The work takes on a central challenge in modern physics: understanding ...
Medical Xpress / Pegcetacoplan—the 'closest thing to a cure' for rare, severe kidney disease
A rare and life-threatening kidney disease in children finally has an effective therapy, thanks in large part to pioneering research and clinical leadership from University of Iowa Health Care Stead Family Children's Hospital.
Phys.org / X-ray imaging reveals how silicon anodes maintain contact in all-solid-state batteries
All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) using silicon (Si) anodes are among the most promising candidates for high-energy and long-lasting power sources, particularly for electric vehicles. Si can store more lithium than conventional ...
Medical Xpress / Study linking tenascin-C protein to muscle stem cell levels and muscle regeneration may lead to treatment for frailty
As we age, the muscles we rely on for daily activities tend to become less reliable. With enough decline, even normal movements such as getting out of bed become risky.
Phys.org / Terahertz device sets performance record and opens new quantum horizons
A prototype device that has demonstrated record-breaking longevity could help open up new frontiers in next-generation communications and computing technologies.
Phys.org / Physicists overcome fundamental limitation of acoustic levitation
Using sound to get objects to float works well if a single particle is levitated, but it causes multiple particles to collapse into a clump in mid-air. Physicists at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) ...
Tech Xplore / Softbank's Son says super AI could make humans like fish, win Nobel Prize
SoftBank CEO and AI investor Masayoshi Son said Friday that advanced artificial intelligence could surpass humans to the extent that "we become fish" and could even win the Nobel Prize in Literature.
Phys.org / A new jaguar spotted in Arizona points to progress in the endangered species' recovery
The spots gave it away. Just like a human fingerprint, the rosette pattern on each jaguar is unique so researchers knew they had a new animal on their hands after reviewing images captured by a remote camera in southern Arizona.
Tech Xplore / Digital twin system cuts idle device power use and reduces energy waste
Adopting digital twin technology to manage the power consumption of idle devices could save organizations thousands of pounds a year and help reduce their carbon footprint, new research suggests.
Medical Xpress / Study highlights underrecognized link between kidney disease and cognitive decline
A new study published in the American Journal of Physiology—Heart and Circulatory Physiology reveals that chronic kidney disease (CKD) accelerates cognitive decline through interconnected damage to the heart and brain—and ...
