Medical Xpress / New combination therapy developed for frequent form of lung cancer
A research team at the Medical University of Vienna has discovered a new approach to treating a particularly frequent and difficult-to-treat form of lung cancer. The study shows that a combination of two well-studied classes ...
Phys.org / Massive supernova from Wolf-Rayet star could be precursor to black hole binary
What we know of the birth of a black hole has traditionally aligned with our perception of black holes themselves: dark, mysterious, and eerily quiet, despite their mass and influence. Stellar-mass black holes are born from ...
Medical Xpress / When a virus releases the immune brake: New evidence on the onset of multiple sclerosis
Autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis arise when the immune system turns against the body itself. Yet for most of them, it remains unclear why this process begins. Researchers have now identified how the Epstein-Barr ...
Tech Xplore / AI 'CHEF' could help those with cognitive declines complete home tasks
In the United States, 11% of adults over age 45 self-report some cognitive decline, which may impact their ability to care for themselves and perform tasks such as cooking or paying bills. A team of Washington University ...
Phys.org / Marine sediments suggest glaciers retreated in sync across both hemispheres
An international team of scientists has uncovered evidence glaciers in the Southern and Northern hemispheres were synchronous during the last ice age.
Medical Xpress / AI advice matches physician recommendations in early-stage liver cancer, but falls short in late stage
Large language models (LLM) can generate treatment recommendations for straightforward cases of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that align with clinical guidelines but fall short in more complex cases, according to a new study ...
Phys.org / Sailboat measurements improve estimates of ocean CO₂ uptake
During training cruises and regattas, sailors collect valuable data for climate research at sea. A study appearing in Science Advances showed that this data can help improve estimates of the marine carbon sink.
Phys.org / Asteroseismology study probes properties of newly discovered pulsating white dwarf
Chinese astronomers have conducted an asteroseismology study of a newly discovered pulsating white dwarf designated WFST J053009.62+595557.0, or WFST J0530 for short. The new findings, presented January 2 on the arXiv pre-print ...
Tech Xplore / Smart gate paves way for reliable hydrogen from seawater
Researchers have developed a simple, scalable way to reliably generate hydrogen with impure water, such as seawater or industrial wastewater.
Medical Xpress / Immune response to Epstein-Barr virus linked to brain damage in multiple sclerosis
The immune system's reaction to the common Epstein-Barr virus can ultimately damage the brain and contribute to multiple sclerosis (MS), according to new research from Karolinska Institutet, published in Cell. The study provides ...
Phys.org / This crystal sings back: Study sheds light on magnetochiral instability
Researchers from The Grainger College of Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have reported the first observation of a dynamic magnetochiral instability in a solid-state material. Their findings, published ...
Phys.org / Atom-thin, content-addressable memory enables edge AI applications
Recent advances in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) have opened new exciting possibilities for the rapid analysis of data, the sourcing of information and the generation of use-specific content. To run AI models, ...
