Medical Xpress / Elusive Alzheimer's protein aggregates missed by current tests revealed with molecular imaging technology
A molecular imaging technology developed by Prof. Shai Rahimipour of Bar-Ilan University is helping scientists uncover one of the earliest and most elusive drivers of Alzheimer's disease, opening new possibilities for earlier ...
Phys.org / Another success for Hayabusa 2 as it completes a flyby of asteroid Torifune
Hayabusa 2's primary mission is now well in the past. JAXA's asteroid-sampling spacecraft rendezvoused with asteroid Ryugu in June 2018. It studied the asteroid for 1.5 years and gathered a sample that was returned to Earth ...
Tech Xplore / Model reveals grid battery wear after 500 to 1,000 cycles in days
Energy storage is becoming critical to grid resilience and electricity affordability because battery systems can help balance supply and demand and stabilize power.
Medical Xpress / Modern IVF achieves higher success rates with single embryo transfer, major study finds
Modern IVF treatment can now achieve substantially higher success rates than historical approaches while dramatically reducing twin and triplet pregnancies, according to new research presented at the 42nd Annual Meeting of ...
Phys.org / Ancient rocks reveal how water reshaped Earth's interior 3.1 billion years ago
Geologists studying some of the planet's oldest volcanic rocks have uncovered new evidence that water was playing a major role in shaping Earth's interior and driving volcanic activity more than 3 billion years ago.
Medical Xpress / Five-agent AI team could speed clinical trial design using real-world patient records
An artificial intelligence system that operates like a collaborative team of medical experts could accelerate clinical trial design, one of the most difficult steps in drug development, according to a new study by Weill Cornell ...
Phys.org / Preparing birds for life in the wild: New technique boosts survival after release
Every year, thousands of parrots confiscated from the illegal wildlife trade arrive at rehabilitation centers across Latin America. For many of these birds, rescue centers can provide safety but not necessarily a path back ...
Phys.org / A hotter climate may lead to more same-sex mounting in corpse-eating beetles
New research suggests that heat stress increases the occurrence of same-sex sexual interactions between male burying beetles—but also that a surprising number of male–male encounters occur under control conditions. This ongoing ...
Medical Xpress / A rare, Ebola-like virus is spreading. Are we prepared?
A growing outbreak of the rare Bundibugyo virus in the Democratic Republic of Congo highlights the need for better planning against lesser-known but potentially deadly infectious diseases, according to a review article by ...
Medical Xpress / AI unlocks previously invisible cortical lesions in MS using legacy MRI scans
One of the uncomfortable truths about multiple sclerosis is that the part of the brain likely to reveal the most about the disease and how a patient will be affected has been mostly invisible to clinicians.
Tech Xplore / New AI research improves how computers interpret the world
For artificial intelligence tools that rely on interpreting data from the real world, both speed and accuracy are critically important. Researchers at the University of Saskatchewan (USask) have developed a tool to make AI ...
Phys.org / AI framework could speed battery, combustion and materials research by automating simulations
Computers have made it easier than ever before to design the perfect material for a given problem: Scientists can create a virtual version and simulate how that material will behave. Building these atomically precise simulations, ...
