New research being presented at the Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in Vienna, Austria (15–19 September) shows that some individuals who are taking Ozempic, Wegovy or Mounjaro ...
Phys.org / Atomic-level engineering enables new alloys that won't break in extreme cold
Navigating the extreme cold of deep space or handling super-chilled liquid fuels here on Earth requires materials that won't break. Most metals become brittle and fracture at such low temperatures. However, new research is ...
Tech Xplore / Playful apps and chatbots can distract users from protecting their personal data
The more interactive a mobile app or artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot is, the more playful it is perceived to be, with users letting their guard down and risking their privacy, according to a team led by researchers at ...
Medical Xpress / Tirzepatide found to be more cost-effective than semaglutide in patients with knee osteoarthritis, obesity
A microsimulation model was used to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of two glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RAs), semaglutide and tirzepatide, for patients with osteoarthritis and obesity compared with usual ...
Tech Xplore / Ant swarm simulation unlocks possibilities in materials engineering, robot navigation and traffic control
Think twice about eliminating those pesky ants at your next family picnic. Their behavior may hold the key to reinventing how engineering materials, traffic control and multi-agent robots are made and utilized, thanks to ...
Phys.org / New neutrino detector in China is coming online
Neutrinos are one of the most enigmatic particles in the standard model. The main reason is that they're so hard to detect. Despite the fact that 400 trillion of them created in the sun are passing through a person's body ...
