Phys.org / Deep-sea supergiant isopods last years without food by using a two-part survival system
The supergiant bathynomid is a deep-sea isopod famous for surviving more than five years without food. Despite residing in an extremely low-nutrient habitat, these organisms exhibit pronounced body gigantism, a trait that ...
Medical Xpress / New cardiac rehab model could save South Australia up to $10 million a year
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is strongly recommended after heart events and procedures, yet remains underused, with only 20%–50% of eligible patients participating—despite well-established recovery benefits.

Phys.org / Galaxy-killing wind discovered in the early universe
Astronomers have discovered a "galaxy-killing wind" that may explain why there are far more massive "dead" galaxies than expected in the early universe. This wind, powered by cosmic collisions between galaxies, could quickly ...
Phys.org / Lab-created 'moon' rock could help scientists interpret lunar data and explore how water might form on the moon
The moon may look unchanged from afar, but its surface is constantly reshaped by microscopic impacts and a steady stream of particles from the sun, a process known as space weathering. Now, Georgia Tech researchers have recreated ...
Phys.org / Microbial alliances, not mitochondria alone, may have built first eukaryotic cells
All cells in animals, plants, fungi, and protists share a fundamental characteristic: they are eukaryotic cells—complex cells with specialized internal compartments. The cells that make up our bodies are no exception.
Phys.org / Newfound 'whale necropolis' reveals 5.3 million years of seafloor life
Whale falls form when whale carcasses sink to the seafloor, creating localized concentrations of biodiversity in the deep ocean. Besides playing a role in long-term carbon sequestration, whale falls help scientists understand ...
