Medical Xpress / Brazil approves world's first single-dose dengue vaccine
Brazilian authorities on Wednesday approved the world's first single-dose dengue vaccine, which they hailed as a "historic" achievement as cases of the mosquito-borne disease soar globally due to rising temperatures.
Phys.org / A tale of two Europes: Model shows uneven progress toward sustainable development goals
European Union countries are progressing toward the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), but not at the same pace.
Phys.org / Quantum key distribution enables secure communication via hybrid and mobile channels
As part of the QuNET project, researchers have demonstrated how quantum key distribution works reliably via hybrid and mobile channels. The results are milestones for sovereign, quantum-secured communication in Germany and ...
Phys.org / Defining work and heat in quantum systems: Laser light coherence offers a consistent approach
Researchers at the University of Basel have developed a new approach to applying thermodynamics to microscopic quantum systems.
Phys.org / The mystery of hanging coffins: Are modern Bo people the genetic heirs of an ancient burial tradition?
A new study has uncovered a direct genetic link between ancient practitioners of the Hanging Coffin burial tradition and the modern Bo people in Southwest China. The findings published in Nature Communications offer unprecedented ...
Phys.org / How carbonates influence CO₂-to-fuel conversion: New insights from gold electrocatalysts
Researchers from the Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin (HZB) and the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society (FHI) have uncovered how carbonate molecules affect the conversion of CO2 into valuable fuels on gold electrocatalysts. ...
Phys.org / Covalent organic frameworks grown through coupling reactions unlock new class of semiconducting magnets
Chemists at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a methodology to enable coupling reactions for the growth of crystalline porous covalent organic frameworks, unlocking a new class of semiconducting magnets. ...
Tech Xplore / EU could hit X with fine before 2025 ends
The European Union could fine Elon Musk's X platform for breaking its digital rules by the end of 2025—two years into a probe that has tested the bloc's resolve to police the online space.
