Tech Xplore / Ultrasonic sensor eliminates inspection blind spots in extreme environments
The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) has developed an ultrasonic sensor technology that applies a waveguide to detect defects in all directions without directly attaching sensors to the inspection ...
Medical Xpress / Researchers call for governing health data as a public utility to unlock real-world evidence and protect patients
Electronic health records (EHRs); insurance claims; patient registries; wearable tech: Never before has health data been so abundant. However, the United States continues to struggle with siloed health data systems that make ...
Phys.org / New 4D-STEM method isolates atomic structures from clustered nanocrystals
Scientists at the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have developed a new way to determine atomic structures from nanocrystals previously considered unusable, a breakthrough that could ...
Medical Xpress / Menstruation continues to shape participation in everyday life
The way menstruation is experienced depends not only on physical symptoms, but also on the social context in which it occurs. A study conducted in Spain with more than 4,000 participants analyzes how menstrual stigma influences ...

At least 57 nations have live antipersonnel land mines in their territories. In 2024 alone, 1,945 people were killed by mines and 4,325 were injured, 90% of whom were civilians. Nearly half of those were children. Demining ...
Medical Xpress / Portable CRISPR-based test detects four STIs, including syphilis, in under an hour
Researchers at the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity (Doherty Institute) have developed a world-first portable point-of-care test that detects four common sexually transmitted infections at once, in under ...
Phys.org / NASA's eclipse megamovie project releases full data on 2024 solar eclipse
On April 8, 2024, people across the world witnessed a solar eclipse, a relatively rare event in which the moon occults (blocks out) light from the sun. To capture this event, volunteers at 143 observatories across the U.S. ...
Medical Xpress / Study points to potential new therapies for hard-to-treat lung cancers
Findings from a study led by researchers at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center–Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute (OSUCCC–James) support the potential of new therapies ...
Phys.org / Chemists rapidly assemble fusicoccadiene, a complex fungal molecule tied to cancer research
A Florida State University chemist has developed a method to rapidly assemble significantly complex natural molecules with potential for biomedical applications, opening the door for novel drug therapies based on the molecule's ...
Phys.org / We designed an AI tutor that helps college students reason rather than give them answers
Students using AI to cheat on homework or tests is a source of much discussion. But some scholars argue the greater risk of students using AI is that they will simply not learn.
Phys.org / How cells work together: The mathematics behind biological shapes
How do biological cells join forces to form a structure? In her Ph.D. research, Daphne Nesenberend uses mathematics to show how forces and cooperation between cells create structure—and how simulations and experiments can ...
Medical Xpress / New findings provide objective look at broad sensory impairments among long COVID sufferers
New research from The Ohio State University College of Medicine is the first to objectively measure multisensory losses in COVID-19 patients. "Our goal is to understand why some long COVID patients experience different profiles ...
