Tech Xplore / Perovskite solar cells need decades-long durability. New work shows which fast-aging tests come closest
Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) could conquer the mass market within a few years, perhaps even being produced in Europe. Their large-scale production is highly cost-effective, and unlike silicon solar cells, their production ...
Medical Xpress / First use of precision editing to study human embryo development reveals role of master gene
Research led by the University of Cambridge Loke Center for Trophoblast Research has shown that a genome-editing technique can be used to alter a single gene in human embryonic cells, enabling the study of very early human ...
Phys.org / Apes and humans have been sharing a laugh for 15 million years
Great apes may have been laughing with a similar rhythm to modern humans for at least 15 million years, a University of Warwick study reveals. The finding offers unexpected clues to how human speech evolved.
Phys.org / Hybrid reef project off Miami Beach targets wave attenuation and coral recovery
University of Miami researchers and collaborators have expanded an offshore reef restoration and coastal resilience project off Miami Beach with the deployment of three 3D-printed SEAHIVE clustered structures.
Medical Xpress / Hidden thymus step may prime cancer-killing T cells earlier than expected
Researchers at Mayo Clinic have uncovered a previously hidden step in how the immune system prepares to fight cancer, a discovery that could help scientists develop more effective and longer-lasting cancer immunotherapies.
Medical Xpress / Language models read doctors' notes to reveal why patients discontinue medication
Researchers at the University of Tartu showed that large language models can identify with high accuracy why patients stop using antidiabetic medications or statins based on doctors' electronic clinical notes. The study opens ...
Phys.org / Heat-struck Italians cool off in ancient stone 'trulli'
Once relics of a bygone way of life, the iconic dry-stone dwellings with conical roofs dotted across Puglia are in increasing demand as cool havens in Italy's sweltering south.
Tech Xplore / EU says Amazon, Microsoft cloud services should face stricter rules
The EU said Thursday that the cloud services of Amazon and Microsoft should face tougher digital competition rules in Europe because of their dominant position in the sector.
Science X / This Neptune-sized world orbits backwards, hinting at a hidden giant's influence
Imagine a world the size of Neptune, but instead of following the orderly path of its neighbors, it is racing headlong against the flow of its own solar system. In the case of the exoplanet TOI-1710 b, the cosmic clockwork ...
Phys.org / Tiny water droplets transmutate aniline into pyridine in ambient and catalyst-free conditions
Aniline can now be transformed into pyridine without adding any catalysts, oxidants or toxic reagents. In a recent study published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, researchers achieved skeletal editing, involving ...
Phys.org / Trios of quantum particles form checkerboard layouts when particle density hits sweet spot
Trions form when three particles, like quarks or electrons, come together. This formation occurs in quantum particles in nuclear physics, semiconductors and magnets, and understanding its behavior can be challenging. Rice ...
Medical Xpress / Use of supplement before surgery may improve liver regeneration
Taking a supplement before a hepatectomy, a surgery in which part of the liver is removed, may help the organ recover more quickly and become more resistant to further damage. This is the main finding of a study conducted ...
