Medical Xpress / Three distinct ADHD biotypes identified using a novel brain-first, data-driven approach
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder or ADHD translates in different ways across the population, unlike the overgeneralized version presented on social media. A recent study further solidified this idea by identifying ...
Phys.org / A superradiant clock phase emerges when Rydberg atoms meet quantum light, simulations suggest
Rydberg atoms are atoms with one or more outer electrons excited to very high energy levels, which interact very strongly with each other. These atoms are widely used to run quantum simulations and develop quantum technologies, ...
Phys.org / Many scientists now use AI but fail to disclose it, study finds
When scientists employ generative AI tools like ChatGPT to help with tasks such as editing and translation for their academic writing, many journals now ask them to disclose this assistance. The rules are intended to maintain ...
Phys.org / Philippines' 'Cockroach Lord' goes to bat for misunderstood bugs
A thin band of light from Cristian Lucanas's headlamp pierces the blackness of a Philippine rainforest as he digs through the underbrush before gently scooping up a cockroach with his bare hands.
Medical Xpress / A safer, more effective atrial fibrillation treatment method using magnetic gel may be on the way
Atrial fibrillation is a common heart condition characterized by a rapid, irregular heartbeat stemming from the heart's upper chamber. It is a leading cause of stroke from clots that form in a small pouch of the heart called ...
Phys.org / Left-handed people may have a psychological edge in competition
Left-handers are more competitive than right-handers, according to a new study published in the journal Scientific Reports. The findings may help explain why left-handedness has persisted throughout evolution despite the ...
Phys.org / Veterinarians in Japan and the UK view animal welfare through different cultural lenses
A new international survey reveals clear differences in how veterinarians and animal welfare scientists in Japan and the UK perceive animal welfare, particularly animal behavior. The findings are published in the journal ...
Phys.org / Study warns Colombia could lose one-fifth of cocoa land by 2050
By 2050, nearly 20% of the areas currently suitable for cocoa cultivation in Colombia could lose the climate conditions needed for production, particularly in the lowlands of the Caribbean region and the country's northeastern ...
Phys.org / How to make farms tree-friendly and boost food production
Farmers could turn more of the UK's farmland into productive agroforestry systems if they had access to trusted advice and real farm examples, according to new research from the University of Reading. Dr. Amelia Hood, from ...
Phys.org / Mixed-flower Australian honey packs a stronger anti-microbial punch
Honeybees collecting nectar from a "buffet" of Australian native plants made honey with anti-microbial abilities that is more potent than "single origin" honey made from only one source of plant or flower, a University of ...
Phys.org / Researchers create a never-before-seen molecule and prove its exotic nature with quantum computing
An international team of scientists from IBM, The University of Manchester, Oxford University, ETH Zurich, EPFL and the University of Regensburg have created and characterized a molecule unlike any previously known—one ...
Phys.org / High-resolution ocean models better capture Atlantic-driven European heat waves
Europe is struggling more and more with extreme heat in the summer. While climate change is the main reason for this increase, what specific physical mechanisms cause a heat wave? One important driver of weather conditions ...
