Science X / Could tomatoes protect brain cells? Scientists uncover an unexpected clue in a familiar kitchen staple
Envision a world where an ordinary part of your daily diet acts as a robust protector against one of humanity's most devastating neurological diseases. The search for effective treatments for conditions including Parkinson's ...
Phys.org / Chemists shrink gallium nitride, the material behind LED lighting, into nanocrystals
Nanocrystals are so useful that they formed the basis of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. But despite their usefulness, scientists have so far been able to make these microscopic crystals from only a limited palette of ...
Phys.org / Scientists use relay synthesis to create key building blocks of reserve antibiotic to combat resistance
Chemists from Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg have achieved an important research success in the fight against resistant bacteria. The team led by scientist Professor Dr. Dieter Schinzer from the Institute of Chemistry ...
Medical Xpress / Dendrites may be key to learning and memory, study suggests
Branchlike structures called dendrites that extend from neurons appear to make their own computations independent of the cell body, helping individual brain cells store memories of the past, respond to the present and anticipate ...
Phys.org / Physicists confirm 20-year-old theory that could boost quantum technology
Future quantum computing will require correlations between distant modules—a feature known as distributed entanglement. Traditionally, such entanglement has relied on active control and repeated measurements. Now, physicists ...
Phys.org / Are workplaces safer? Harassment and violence persist, survey finds
A follow-up national survey developed by Western researchers shows workplace harassment and violence continue to be widespread in Canada, with some signs of improvement. The second national survey on harassment and violence ...
Phys.org / Scientists strike invisible gold in the deep sea—locked inside fool's gold
Pyrite, an iron sulfide ore, is often known as fool's gold because its shiny metallic luster and pale brass-yellow color can easily fool the untrained eye into mistaking it for real gold. This time, however, 360 kilometers ...
Phys.org / New environmental performance index highlights sustainability gains, and the challenges ahead
European countries continue to lead the world in environmental performance, according to the 2026 Environmental Performance Index (EPI), a biennial assessment produced by researchers at the Yale Center for Environmental Law ...
Phys.org / Sun holds 55% more silver than estimated, new model reveals
Researchers at Uppsala University have calculated that the sun contains 55% more silver than previously estimated. The results are based on more realistic modeling of the sun's atmosphere and resolve a long-standing problem ...
Medical Xpress / New tool makes immune therapy more effective in prostate cancer
Prostate cancer is often resistant to immunotherapy, which harnesses a person's immune system to recognize and destroy tumors. But a new technology that targets RNA in cancer cells gave immunotherapy new life, improving its ...
Tech Xplore / New spinning drone hides in plain sight: 'Phantom Twist' harnesses motion blur to nearly vanish in flight
By exploiting the quirks of human vision, Northwestern University engineers have designed a drone that nearly disappears before the eyes. For years, researchers have tried to design invisible drones and robots using camouflage, ...
Medical Xpress / Researchers test video game as anxiety treatment for teens
For many teenagers, anxiety is more than occasional stress or nerves. It can make school feel overwhelming, strain friendships and turn everyday situations into something that feels unmanageable.
