Phys.org / Seismic 'snapshot' reveals new insight into how the Rocky Mountains formed
No one ever thought the birth of the Rocky Mountains was a simple process, but we now know it was far more complex than even geophysicists had assumed.
Medical Xpress / Blood test can identify cancer in patients with non-specific symptoms
A simple blood test can help detect cancer in patients with non-specific symptoms such as fatigue, pain or weight loss. This is according to a Swedish study from Karolinska Institutet, Danderyd Hospital and others, published ...
Phys.org / Women treat AI with greater skepticism than men do, study suggests
Women perceive artificial intelligence (AI) as riskier than men do, according to a study. Beatrice Magistro and colleagues hypothesized that women are both more exposed to risk from AI and are more averse to risk in general ...
Tech Xplore / A geometric twist boosts the power of robotic textiles
By rethinking how thin metal threads are woven into a flexible textile, EPFL researchers have created a lightweight fabric capable of lifting over 400 times its own weight. The work advances the development of wearables that ...
Medical Xpress / Memory justifications remain surprisingly stable even as memories fade over time, study shows
While memories may fade with time, the explanations people give for why they remember an event remain surprisingly stable and reliable, according to a new study by Ben-Gurion University of the Negev.
Phys.org / Ion trap enables 1 minute in the nanocosmos
At the Department of Ion Physics and Applied Physics at the University of Innsbruck, a research team has succeeded for the first time in storing electrically charged helium nanodroplets in an ion trap for up to one minute.
Phys.org / Sweet signals: Tracking crucial cell messengers for the first time
Complex sugar-protein molecules that sense external messages to help a cell grow or respond to its environment can now be tracked and analyzed, using a Nobel Prize-winning chemistry technique.
Medical Xpress / Air pollution may increase the risk of the neurodegenerative disease ALS
Prolonged exposure to air pollution can be linked to an elevated risk for serious neurodegenerative diseases like ALS and seems to speed up the pathological process, report researchers from Karolinska Institutet in Sweden. ...
Tech Xplore / A durable, polymer-based, flexible RF switch for 6G communication
A research team affiliated with UNIST has introduced a novel, high-performance, and thermally stable polymer-based non-volatile analog switch. This next-generation device is as thin and flexible as vinyl, yet capable of withstanding ...
Medical Xpress / Noninvasive brain scanning could send signals to paralyzed limbs
People with spinal cord injuries often lose some or all their limb function. In most patients, the nerves in their limbs work fine, and the neurons in their brain are still operational, but the damage to their spinal cords ...
Phys.org / Surprisingly in sync: Sunlight and sediments reveal climate history of Antarctica
The remnants of ice attached to the coast offer astounding insights into the climate history of past millennia. An international research team led by the CNR Institute of Polar Sciences (Italy) and involving the University ...
Tech Xplore / Simple equations predict hydrogen storage in porous materials
A new set of simple equations can fast-track the search for metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a Nobel-Prize-winning class of nanoporous materials that are promising candidates for clean hydrogen energy storage. With millions ...
