Phys.org / Dark biodiversity helps solve Darwin's 160-year-old puzzle
An international research team, which included University of Tartu visiting doctoral student Wen-Gang Zhang and Professor of Botany Meelis Pärtel, has found a new solution to one of ecology's long-standing controversies—Darwin's ...
Medical Xpress / Study identifies a new cause of age-related inflammation, suggesting promising treatment pathway
A new study led by researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center has uncovered a previously unknown connection between nucleic acid structures called R-loops and age-related inflammation—or inflammaging—that ...
Phys.org / Groundwater flow could help unlock ocean carbon storage solution
AIMS scientists are quantifying the amount of groundwater flowing from the land to the Ningaloo Reef in Western Australia to help understand the viability of blue carbon storage solutions to reduce the impacts of climate ...
Medical Xpress / Autism-related genes may share common path during early brain development
Hundreds of genes have been linked to autism, yet the precise molecular and cellular mechanisms behind it remain largely unclear. A new study published in Nature, led by Gaia Novarino at the Institute of Science and Technology ...
Medical Xpress / With neuronal data, AI models predict grammar, meaning and context of spoken sentences
By applying machine-learning models to single-cell brain recordings taken from humans in conversation, a research team identified both individual and collective neuronal activity that reflected key features of language. The ...
Medical Xpress / FGF21 helps cells cope with protein folding stress by increasing sulfide signaling, preclinical study suggests
FGF21 is primarily known as a metabolic hormone. A new study by researchers at Helmholtz Munich and Ludwig Maximilians University has described a previously unknown mechanism through which FGF21 supports cells under protein-folding ...
Medical Xpress / What brain waves reveal about language in autistic children
UNIGE scientists have discovered that children with autism exhibit different brain patterns depending on their language abilities. This discovery could improve predictions of their language development.
Phys.org / AI saves time, so why does it make us feel guilty?
We have built tools that save us hours at work. So why do so many people feel worse for using them? The answer has less to do with AI and more to do with what we have always believed work is supposed to cost us.
Medical Xpress / Amyloid precursor protein protects neurons during nuclear waste disposal
Researchers at Niigata University's Brain Research Institute have uncovered a new function of amyloid precursor protein (APP), a molecule long studied as the precursor to amyloid-β (Aβ) in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The study ...
Tech Xplore / Upsampling method sharpens AI vision with up to 16 times less GPU memory
From facial recognition on smartphones to humanoid robots, computer vision technology, which serves as the eyes of artificial intelligence (AI), is widely used in daily life. A joint research team from KAIST and international ...
Medical Xpress / Childhood trauma leaves its mark on adult cellular health, study shows
New research links childhood adversity to mitochondrial bioenergetic changes later in life, underscoring the impact of stress in early life on cellular health. The study also found that different types of childhood stressors ...
Phys.org / Quasi-1D material unlocks electric control of charge waves beyond standard limits
The ability to control the movement of negatively charged particles (i.e., electrons) is central to the functioning of all modern electronic devices. This control is typically attained using a gate, an electrode via which ...
