Phys.org / Which climate policies actually make a difference? Our new analysis has the answer
Countries worldwide have dramatically ramped up their climate policies over the past two decades. The number of climate measures has quadrupled since 2000, with some datasets showing a fifteen-fold increase.
Medical Xpress / Preventing breast cancer resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors using genomic findings
Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) have made an important discovery about how genetic mutations in breast cancer patients can interact and drive resistance to certain drugs called CDK4/6 inhibitors. ...
Phys.org / Most Saharan dust is generated by 'hidden thunderstorms' high above the desert
When Saharan dust reaches the UK and Europe, as a huge country-sized cloud did over the past few days, it can transform the sky. Tiny particles drifting in the atmosphere scatter blue light while allowing reds and oranges ...
Medical Xpress / Q&A: How a tiny cellular portal could open vast possibilities for medicine
Inside each of your cells lies a nucleus, its master command center. Protected inside each nucleus are your chromosomes, containing all the genetic instructions for making proteins. To keep the body operating smoothly, proteins, ...
Tech Xplore / Can people distinguish between AI-generated and human speech?
In a collaboration between Tianjin University and the Chinese University of Hong Kong, researchers led by Xiangbin Teng used behavioral and brain activity measures to explore whether people can discern between AI-generated ...
Phys.org / Neutrons reveal magnetic signatures of chiral phonons
Physicists in China have uncovered new evidence that chiral phonons and magnons can interact strongly inside magnetic crystals. Using neutron spectroscopy, a team led by Song Bao at Nanjing University mapped magnetic signatures ...
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 / Astronomers discover TOI-5734 b, a hot sub-Neptune twice Earth's size
Using the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and High Accuracy Radial velocity Planet Searcher for the Northern Hemisphere (HARPS-N), an international team of astronomers has discovered a hot sub-Neptune exoplanet ...
Tech Xplore / Deep AI training gets more stable by predicting its own errors
Artificial intelligence now plays Go, paints pictures, and even converses like a human. However, there remains a decisive difference: AI requires far more electricity than the human brain to operate. Scientists have long ...
Medical Xpress / AI model enables personalized blood glucose predictions for type one diabetes
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune condition in which the body's own immune system attacks insulin-producing cells. As a result, patients with T1D must closely monitor their blood glucose (BG) levels and rely on insulin ...
Tech Xplore / Liquid-metal pupil helps an artificial eye adapt to sudden light changes
Computer vision technologies are artificial intelligence (AI)-powered systems that can capture, analyze, and interpret visual data captured from real-world environments. While these systems are now widely used, many of them ...
Phys.org / Most compact quadruple star system yet fits within an area the size of Jupiter's orbit
Astronomers have reported observations of a rare star system consisting of one star orbiting a system of three more tightly bound stars. This quadruple star system is described in a new study, published in Nature Communications, ...
