Tech Xplore / AI and work: An expert assesses how far this revolution still has to run
Every week brings fresh claims about AI transforming the workplace. A CEO declares a revolution. A think piece predicts millions of jobs vanishing overnight. The noise is relentless.
Phys.org / How AI could unlock deep‑sea secrets of marine life
Somewhere in the North Atlantic, more than a kilometer beneath its surface, a cold-water coral reef stretches across an unnamed seamount. Despite never appearing on a chart, this underwater forest has existed for centuries, ...
Medical Xpress / Stay or stray? Why some gut microbes persist after fecal transplants
Scientists have identified why some gut microbes successfully stay in the gut after fecal transplants, while others are much more transient. The King's College London discovery could help make the treatment—which involves ...
Phys.org / Study reveals new technique to identify individual night-flying birds for the first time
Millions of birds invisibly migrate through the night sky each autumn, most flying in near silence toward their wintering grounds. Now, scientists have developed a way to see and identify many of those birds for the first ...
Medical Xpress / Preventing breast cancer resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors using genomic findings
Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) have made an important discovery about how genetic mutations in breast cancer patients can interact and drive resistance to certain drugs called CDK4/6 inhibitors. ...
Phys.org / New LVK catalog adds 128 gravitational-wave candidates, more than doubling detections
When the densest objects in the universe collide and merge, the violence sets off ripples, in the form of gravitational waves, that reverberate across space and time, over hundreds of millions and even billions of years. ...
Medical Xpress / Mpox immune test validated during Rwandan outbreak
An antibody test for the infectious disease mpox was successfully developed during the new clade 1b outbreak in Rwanda, the first time that an assay of its kind has been validated within this setting. The test, an IgG ELISA ...
Phys.org / Material previously thought to be quantum is actually a new, non-quantum state of matter
Magnetic materials in a quantum spin liquid phase are of great interest in the pursuit of exotic state of matter and quantum computation. But in the quantum realm, things are not always what they seem. A study, published ...
Medical Xpress / New Jersey's opioid gap persists as high-risk counties fall further behind
Opioids such as fentanyl are "indiscriminate killers" that can be misused by people from all walks of life. But where you live may be more influential than previously realized, according to researchers at Rutgers University.
Phys.org / Binary star population of open cluster NGC 2158 explored with Hubble
Astronomers have analyzed the images collected by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to investigate a galactic open cluster known as NGC 2158. Results of the study, published Feb. 25 on the arXiv pre-print server, provide essential ...
Medical Xpress / High-intensity interval training boosts muscle mitochondria, study shows
Researchers from the University of Southern Denmark investigated how eight weeks of high-intensity interval training affect the structure of mitochondria—the parts of muscle cells that produce energy. The study shows that ...
Medical Xpress / What does the appendix do? Biologists explain the complicated evolution of this inconvenient organ
Most people know only two things about the appendix: You don't need it—and if it bursts, you need surgery fast.
