Phys.org / China carbon emissions 'flat or falling' in 2025: analysis
China's emissions of planet-warming carbon dioxide were "flat or falling" in 2025, analysis showed Thursday, but progress remains fragile and it is not yet clear that emissions have peaked.
Medical Xpress / Wearable trackers can detect depression relapse weeks before it returns, study finds
Could a smart watch act as an early-warning system for depression relapse? New research from McMaster University suggests that disruptions in a person's sleep and daily activity routine, as detected through a simple wrist-worn ...
Phys.org / New study uses Neanderthals to demonstrate gap between generative AI and scholarly knowledge
Technological advances over the past four decades have turned mobile devices and computers into the world's largest library, where information is just a tap away. Phones, laptops, tablets, smartwatches—they're a part of ...
Phys.org / Keeping an eagle eye on carbon stored in the ocean
Geologic reservoirs that trapped petroleum for millions of years are now being repurposed to store the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. New research is improving how we monitor this storage and verify how much CO2 these reservoirs ...
Medical Xpress / Non-contractile heart cells help sustain persistent atrial fibrillation, study reveals
Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common chronic cardiac arrhythmia in clinical practice, is very challenging to treat once it becomes persistent, after which spontaneous return to normal rhythm becomes highly unlikely. ...
Phys.org / Root microbes could help oak trees adapt to drought
Microbes could help oak trees cope with environmental change. Publishing in Cell Host & Microbe, a study observing oaks growing in a natural woodland found that the trees' above- and below-ground microbiomes were resilient ...
Tech Xplore / Supercomputer provides high-fidelity insights into turbine aerothermal performance
In a long-running collaboration with GE Aerospace, researchers at the University of Melbourne in Australia have been steadily working to improve the performance of high-pressure turbine (HPT) engines through computer simulations ...
Medical Xpress / Why asthma risk differs by sex: Study links early-life exposures to lung gene networks
A new study has confirmed that male and female lungs are "wired differently" at the molecular level, providing further evidence supporting sex-inclusive respiratory disease research and treatment. The work is published in ...
Phys.org / Urgent need for school-housing partnerships to support students facing housing instability, according to study
Housing instability, often invisible to schools until it begins to disrupt attendance, learning, or mental health, is a growing challenge for families with school-age children, according to new research. A policy scan led ...
Medical Xpress / Lucid dreaming could be used for mental health therapy, new study says
Lucid dreaming (LD) is one of the most fascinating parts of human consciousness, where you realize you are actually dreaming while you're still asleep and, in some situations, can decide what happens next. There is a growing ...
Medical Xpress / 'Dancing molecules' paralysis treatment heals lab-grown human spinal cord organoids
Northwestern University scientists have developed the most advanced organoid model for human spinal cord injury to date. In a new study, the research team used lab-grown human spinal cord organoids—miniature organs derived ...
Phys.org / Topological antenna could pave the way for 6G networks
Using ideas borrowed from topological photonics, researchers in Singapore, France and the US have designed a compact antenna capable of handling information-rich terahertz (THz) signals. Reporting their results in Nature ...
