Tech Xplore / Can people distinguish between AI-generated and human speech?
In a collaboration between Tianjin University and the Chinese University of Hong Kong, researchers led by Xiangbin Teng used behavioral and brain activity measures to explore whether people can discern between AI-generated ...
Phys.org / Why simulating an entire cell cycle took years, multiple GPUs and six days per run
By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell—from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell division—scientists have opened a new frontier of computer vision into the essential processes ...
Phys.org / Why nanotechnology breakthroughs often stagnate before reaching the market
New research suggests that the most formidable barrier to commercializing nanotechnology is not the science itself, but rather the way organizations manage the innovation process. While nanotechnology is heralded as one of ...
Phys.org / Narrow-ridged finless porpoises are more social than assumed, study finds
A well-established fact of infancy in mammals is that the mother is the primary adult with whom an infant will interact. This holds true across species, from the tiniest shrew to the most massive blue whale. However, infants ...
Medical Xpress / Daily multivitamins may slow biological aging, two-year trial suggests
An analysis led by Mass General Brigham investigators found slower aging in older adults after two years of a daily multivitamin, with greater benefits for those who began the trial with accelerated biological age
Phys.org / Camera captures first video of a red fox attacking a wolf pup
We are used to seeing a strict order in nature, with apex predators at the top feeding on those lower down the pecking order. But in video footage from a nature reserve in Italy, we see a red fox turning the tables, attacking ...
Medical Xpress / Human intestinal cell model enables precise detection of drug-induced barrier damage
Researchers have developed a human intestinal cell model that closely mimics the structure and function of the human gut, enabling more precise prediction of drug-induced gastrointestinal toxicity during the preclinical stage ...
Medical Xpress / Why HIV prevention is falling short in Kampala's informal settlements
While the rate of HIV in Kampala, Uganda, is more than double the national average, a recent survey of displaced youths in the city found that only about 20% consistently used condoms and just half of the study participants ...
Tech Xplore / Ice electrolyte can power battery: Researchers unlock lithium conduction in solid organic electrolytes
A research team affiliated with UNIST has demonstrated that liquid electrolytes, when frozen, can still facilitate lithium-ion conduction sufficient for battery operation—challenging the traditional view that electrolytes ...
Medical Xpress / Study finds shared genetic roots of multiple sclerosis across diverse ancestries
A new study published in Neurology, led by Queen Mary University of London, has revealed that people of South Asian, African and European ancestry share many of the same genetic risk factors for multiple sclerosis (MS).
Phys.org / Multi-wavelength observations track bright gamma-ray blazar's three-year cycle
By analyzing the data from various space observatories and ground-based telescopes, European astronomers have performed a multiwavelength study of a bright gamma-ray blazar known as S5 1044+71. The new study, published Feb. ...
Medical Xpress / That difficult person in your life could be aging you 1.5% faster, study finds
Spending time with someone who constantly causes problems may do more than just ruin your mood.
