Phys.org / Molecular trick opens the door to a new generation of glass
Researchers at TU Dortmund University, Paderborn University, the University of Duisburg-Essen, and the University of Oxford have developed a new method for selectively modifying the internal structure of specific types of ...
Medical Xpress / A painless punch with a microneedle patch could detect kidney disease earlier
Kidney disease is silent in its early stages, progressing without symptoms until the disease is advanced. Researchers in the McKelvey School of Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis, in collaboration with researchers ...
Phys.org / Young golden eagles leave their parents' territory late
When a young golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) finally leaves its parents' territory, it leaves behind the only safety net it has ever known. Until now, biologists had assumed that eagles took this step as soon as they could ...
Tech Xplore / Physics Ph.D. student develops AI tools to tackle industry 'bottleneck'
Nonuniformities can be a big deal on a manufacturing line. But they can be tough to identify in materials measured on a nanometer scale, as Alex Bordovalos came to appreciate during an internship with a solar cell manufacturer ...
Medical Xpress / AI-based diagnosis of hypertension and diabetes from a single facial video
Artificial intelligence (AI)-based analysis of facial videos can rapidly and accurately detect undiagnosed high blood pressure and diabetes, according to a study that will be presented at ESC Congress 2026.
Phys.org / How people treat you may shape your reputation and stabilize cooperation
When one person helps, or refuses to help, another in public, this may change not only the provider's reputation but also the recipient's. A theoretical study led by Kobe University offers a simple explanation for how cooperation ...
Phys.org / Nanoscale hairs may help gecko skin trap moisture and slow evaporation
In a dry shrubland, a gecko sprints toward shelter. Its greatest danger is not a predator, although hawks circle overhead and sand cats wait in ambush. Rather, its most pressing concern is dehydration. Its skin is paper-thin; ...
Medical Xpress / Mucus-coated tumor spheres reveal potential targets to curb colorectal cancer spread
Researchers from the University of Turku in Finland and Gustave Roussy Institute in France have discovered a molecular mechanism that regulates whether cells in an aggressive colorectal cancer are conventional or inverted ...
Medical Xpress / How DNA folding controls immune gene activity in T cells
A new study by researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania reveals that the three-dimensional folding of DNA at a key genetic locus helps determine when two related immune genes, Ets1 ...
Phys.org / Catalyzing the community: Chemists and Navajo leaders educate on clean water
Many Native American communities in rural areas rely on well water, but the quality and safety of that water can vary significantly. Researchers led by Jani C. Ingram measured levels of heavy metals in well water on tribal ...
Phys.org / Chatbots are making our writing more similar but losing the identity and personality behind it
Large language models (LLMs) are making writing styles more similar without changing the overall meaning, according to an analysis of more than 880,000 texts across different writing types published in Nature Human Behaviour. ...
