Phys.org / Microneedle patch vaccine could solving one of farming's most stubborn problems
Sticking needles into arms—or rather, haunches—is often the hardest part of distributing an effective agricultural vaccine. Now, University of Connecticut researchers show in the April 15 issue of Advanced Healthcare Materials ...
Phys.org / How wasted infrared light could boost solar panels, night vision and 3D printing
Researchers at UNSW Sydney have developed a nanoscale device that converts low-energy infrared and red light into higher-energy visible light, a breakthrough that could eventually improve solar panels, sensing technologies, ...
Phys.org / Physicists create hybrid light-matter particles that interact strongly enough to compute
Eighty years ago, Penn researchers J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly launched the age of electronic computing by harnessing electrons to solve complex numerical problems with ENIAC, the world's first general-purpose electronic ...
Medical Xpress / Baseline MRI lets AI predict Alzheimer's progression without cognitive testing
Millions of people are diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease each year, comprising 60% to 70% of dementia cases worldwide. While cognitive impairment and structural brain changes are indicative of Alzheimer's disease progression, ...
Phys.org / Southern Ocean intermediate waters may hold key to Earth's carbon dioxide history
Researchers at National Taiwan University and partner institutions have uncovered new evidence that Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW)—a distinct layer sitting 500–1,500 meters below the ocean surface—played a pivotal role ...
Medical Xpress / How chemotherapy can backfire: An immune shift tied to tumor resistance and poorer outcomes
Chemotherapy can be life-saving for many patients, but not all tumors respond—and some that do, may eventually become resistant. Investigators at Houston Methodist have identified a possible explanation for this resistance, ...
Phys.org / This single mother must learn quickly—or her colony won't survive
Being a single mother of 20 is no joke, especially if the survival of a whole species depends on it. A queen bumblebee faces this very challenge when she lays her first eggs in the spring: She is utterly alone, with no worker ...
Phys.org / Indian and Tibetan wolves reveal ancient lineages with unexpected genomic diversity
Wolves in India, like the pack that raised Mowgli in "The Jungle Book," can often feel disconnected from both the research and storytelling of wolves. Rice University professor Lauren Hennelly is working to change that. Her ...
Phys.org / A smelly dog breath breakthrough: Plant-based spray tackles odor and harmful oral microbes
Pet owners love their dogs but may not always love the smell of their breath. Because this bad odor can signal oral disease, veterinary clinics will prescribe daily toothbrushing, antibiotics, or chemical rinses as treatment. ...
Phys.org / Dark lunar craters could host ultrastable lasers for moon navigation
They rank among the darkest and coldest places in the solar system: Hundreds of lunar craters, many of them at the moon's south pole, never receive direct sunlight and lie in permanent shadow. That's exactly why physicist ...
Medical Xpress / Which patients benefit most from tirzepatide GLP-1 for obesity and obstructive sleep apnea?
Tirzepatide GLP-1 medication is known to improve sleep apnea for people with both obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and obesity, but not all patients benefit equally. Now, new research presented at the 2026 ATS International ...
Medical Xpress / At 'most favored nation' prices, can Medicare break even on GLP-1 drugs?
In November 2025, the White House announced pricing deals with multiple pharmaceutical manufacturers to lower domestic prices for glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist drugs (GLP-1RAs) including Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, ...
