Most people know depression as a disorder of sadness. But for millions of patients, the most debilitating feature is something else entirely: the reduced ability or inability to feel positive emotions.
Medical Xpress / Whole-body ultrasound captures full cross-sections in 10 seconds, early tests show
Ultrasounds are a critical part of modern health care, helping to image soft tissue and organs, measure blood flow, and monitor fetal development. But the technique has constraints, including a limited field of view and the ...
Phys.org / Simplifying clean hydrogen production with a new all-in-one photocatalytic cocatalyst
Researchers have demonstrated the first "all-in-one" cocatalyst for photocatalytic overall water splitting, a breakthrough that could simplify the production of clean hydrogen fuel. The discovery marks an important step toward ...
Science X / Plato aces space-like tests, keeping hunt for Earth-like worlds on track
The European Space Agency Plato mission has successfully completed a series of tough tests under space-like conditions. With this accomplishment, the spacecraft is on track to lift off in early 2027 and begin its search for ...
Phys.org / Natural-language AI helps chemists design molecules step by step
Designing molecules is one of chemistry's most complex challenges. From life-saving drugs to advanced materials, each compound requires a precise sequence of reactions. Planning these steps demands both technical knowledge ...
Medical Xpress / How different countries decide who gets a heart transplant
As demand for heart transplants continues to far exceed the number of available donor hearts, experts at the 46th Annual Meeting and Scientific Sessions of the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) ...
Medical Xpress / Surgeons debate promise and limits of robotics in lung transplantation
The expanding use of robotic technology in lung transplantation came under scrutiny at the 46th Annual Meeting and Scientific Sessions of the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT), held from 22–25 ...
Phys.org / Machine learning identifies catalyst 'sweet spot' for greener urea from waste gases
Urea is an extremely important chemical, especially for fertilizers. But, making urea is energy intensive and relies heavily on fossil fuels. However, new findings from Griffith University and the Queensland University of ...
Phys.org / Scraped from ancient Roman toilets, these crusted remains expose a pathogen found far earlier than expected
Modern analytical tools are no less than a time machine. From their 21st-century labs, researchers can peer into the everyday lives, hygiene, and even the parasites that plagued the people who lived centuries ago. In one ...
Phys.org / The most energetic neutrino ever detected could be primordial
In the exotic world of particle physics, neutrinos may be the most mysterious members. They rarely interact with other matter, have almost no mass, and have no electrical charge. These characteristics make them extremely ...
Medical Xpress / More children are surviving long enough for heart transplants—but not enough hearts exist, say experts
Advances in pediatric heart care are helping more children survive long enough to receive a transplant—but a critical shortage of donor hearts means too many are still dying while they wait, experts warned at the International ...
Phys.org / Human-altered estuaries now drive stronger tides farther inland
A study led by Wageningen University & Research shows that human interventions have significantly changed tides in river estuaries over the past centuries. In many regions around the world, the difference between high and ...
