Phys.org / Young galaxies grow up fast: Research reveals unexpected chemical maturity
Astronomers have captured the most detailed look yet at faraway galaxies at the peak of their youth, an active time when the adolescent galaxies were fervently producing new stars.
Dialog / Two technologies, one disease: Connecting DBS and focused ultrasound for Parkinson's disease management
Parkinson's disease is no longer viewed as a faraway neurological ailment buried in textbooks. More than 10 million people are already affected worldwide, and the number is continually climbing. Men are somewhat more impacted ...
Tech Xplore / Ancient board game tactics help AI unlock optimal cooling strategies
It's a simple law of physics: When electricity or fuel powers a machine, the machine gets hotter. Finding new ways to cool machines quickly and controllably can mean the difference between a functioning electrical grid and ...
Medical Xpress / Blood test reveals risk of multimorbidity in older adults
A small set of common blood biomarkers predicts which older adults will develop specific combinations of chronic diseases—and how quickly, according to a new study from Karolinska Institutet published in Nature Medicine.
Tech Xplore / What does cybersecurity look like in the quantum age?
Quantum computers promise unprecedented computing speed and power that will advance both business and science. These same qualities also make them a prime target for malicious hackers, according to Swaroop Ghosh, professor ...
Phys.org / Programmable microparticles morph and self-propel under electrical fields
Researchers at CU Boulder have created tiny, microorganism-inspired particles that can change their shape and self-propel, much like living things, in response to electrical fields.
Phys.org / Direct 3D printing of nanolasers can boost optical computing and quantum security
In future high-tech industries, such as high-speed optical computing for massive AI, quantum cryptographic communication, and ultra-high-resolution augmented reality (AR) displays, nanolasers—which process information using ...
Phys.org / New tools turn grain crops into living biosensors
A collaborative team of researchers from the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center, the University of Florida, Gainesville and University of Iowa have developed tools that allow grasses—including major grain crops like corn—to ...
Phys.org / How well-meaning allies increase stress for marginalized people
Someone in the office makes a racially insensitive comment, and a white co-worker asks a Black colleague to help correct the offender.
Medical Xpress / Research reveals how children's play links to social skills and brain activity
A new study has uncovered the ways different types of play are linked to children's social abilities and brain activity. The research, conducted by researchers at King's College London and Cardiff University, has uncovered ...
Phys.org / Superheated sediments in a submarine pressure cooker—an unexpected source of deep-sea hydrogen
The mid-ocean ridge runs through the oceans like a suture. Where Earth's plates move apart, new oceanic crust is continuously formed. This is often accompanied by magmatism and hydrothermal activity. Seawater seeps into the ...
Medical Xpress / Treatment developed for advanced prostate cancer that could eliminate severe side effects
Researchers at Case Western Reserve University have developed a treatment for advanced prostate cancer that could eliminate a side effect so debilitating that patients often refuse the life-saving therapy.
