Medical Xpress / AI reveals distinct cell defects inside breast cancer
Researchers at the University of Southampton have developed a powerful AI tool that reveals previously invisible patterns inside breast cancers. It uncovers how tiny cellular structures called centrosomes change as tumors ...
Phys.org / A weakening Atlantic Ocean current system could accelerate Earth's warming
A current system in the Atlantic Ocean that shapes regional climates and distributes ocean nutrients also serves as a control knob to help regulate temperatures across the planet, new research has found.
Phys.org / How ancient trees are warning us about the next enormous solar storm
Our sun is capable of storms far bigger than we've ever recorded. Studying the world's oldest trees suggests we could soon be due one of these gargantuan events.
Phys.org / The global race to make a practical quantum computer just took a big leap forward
In the global race to build bigger and better quantum computers, researchers have taken a step forward. A new machine called Helios is radically different from other quantum computers.
Phys.org / They're content creators with thousands of adoring fans. So why do they feel so terrible?
If given the chance to gain thousands of admirers for your work, would you take it? The artists whom my colleagues and I interviewed as part of our research on content creators did—and many went on to question whether it ...
Tech Xplore / AI can help make complex IPO filings easier to analyze
For investors trying to make sense of a company going public, one of the most important documents is often the most difficult to understand. Initial public offering (IPO) filings are dense disclosures submitted to the U.S. ...
Medical Xpress / Brain imaging reveals how an information hub integrates signals during decision-making
The human brain is constantly awash with information. Even during a routine activity such as driving, the brain sorts through and reacts to multiple sources of information: remembering the route, recalling how to operate ...
Phys.org / Shackled men in 2,600-year-old Greek mass graves were likely locals, archaeologists find
In 2016, archaeologists working at the Phaleron Burial Ground, part of the ancient Attica region, uncovered an astonishing sight: three mass graves dating to the 7th and 6th centuries BCE containing the skeletons of 79 adult ...
Phys.org / Labrador Sea a key player in providing oxygen for deep North Atlantic life
Researchers from Cornell University have pinpointed the source of oxygen that sustains deep-sea life in the North Atlantic Ocean: the churning waters in the Labrador Sea.
Tech Xplore / From spheres to 12-fanged grains, scientists tame unruly sand in graphics and simulations
On a sunny summer's day, children build sandcastles on the beach. But behind every castle and crumbling dune lies a surprisingly difficult scientific problem. In fact, the physics of sand is not yet fully understood—which ...
Phys.org / Who's watching who? Otters turn their attention to humans
For many people, a trip to the zoo is a chance to watch playful otters dart through the water and chatter with one another. But while we may worry that crowds could stress the otter community, a new Australian study shows ...
Phys.org / Mega-Earth GJ 523b is 23 times as massive as our planet—but only 2.5 times as wide
It's nearly 170 million years old. It's more than 2.5 times the size of Earth. And it's the first exoplanet discovered and cataloged by researchers with the Wisconsin Center for Origins Research (WiCOR).
