Medical Xpress / Skin-deep microneedle sensor tracks drug clearance and reveals early kidney and liver dysfunction
Wearable technologies are starting to reshape how people manage health. Continuous glucose monitors that measure blood sugar levels in diabetes patients have already shown the power of tracking an important molecule in real ...
Medical Xpress / Cutting calories to slow aging—without compromising health
Restricting calorie intake in species such as mice, rhesus monkeys, and fruit flies has been shown to extend their lifespans. In some cases, these animals not only live longer, but are also free of disease. But when pushed ...
Phys.org / Medicine's next leap: Delivering gene therapies exactly where they're needed
A quiet revolution is underway in modern medicine: Drug development is aiming to move from managing disease to correcting it through RNA and gene-editing therapies. But delivering these treatments safely and precisely to ...
Medical Xpress / Growing liver tissue directly in the body could ease donor organ shortage
In patients developing end-stage liver disease, the damage has become too severe for the liver's normally extraordinary regenerative capacity to repair or compensate for it. Once this "point of no return" has been reached, ...
Tech Xplore / Slime-like artificial muscle reshapes on command, heals after damage and turns one robot into many
Breaking away from conventional robots that perform only predefined functions once fabricated, researchers have developed a next-generation artificial muscle that can change its shape in real time, recover from damage, and ...
Phys.org / Volunteers discover rare space weather events using their ears
Our planet rests inside a magnetic cocoon filled with plasma—but it's not always peaceful and quiet. Activity from the sun can send waves through this space, and some of those disturbances can even reach Earth, affecting ...
Tech Xplore / Transparent cooling film cuts car cabin temperature by 6.1°C without electricity
A transparent radiative cooling film technology that dissipates heat directly to the outside without consuming electricity has been developed to reduce vehicle overheating during summer. The technology was validated through ...
Tech Xplore / One-step CO₂ system triples capture, ditches silver for zinc, and turns emissions into industrial fuel feedstock
Every year, power plants and factories release billions of tons of carbon dioxide (CO₂) into the atmosphere. Methods exist to capture that CO₂ using chemical solutions and, separately, to convert pure CO₂ into useful fuels ...
Phys.org / Researchers directly observe muonic molecules critical to muon catalyzed fusion
Scientists have directly observed muonic molecules in resonance states for the first time, using a high-resolution X-ray detector, a new Science Advances study reports.
Phys.org / AI-powered tool could speed treatments for antibiotic-resistant bacteria by pinpointing potent peptides
A newly designed AI-powered tool is effective in developing treatments to attack antibiotic-resistant bacteria by breaking down their outer defenses, according to new research from Houston Methodist. The study, published ...
Phys.org / Ocean bottom seismometers could improve earthquake warning times in Pacific Northwest
If there is a magnitude 8 or 9 megathrust earthquake off the coast of the Pacific Northwest, data from ocean bottom seismometers (OBS) could improve earthquake detection times calculated by the ShakeAlert system.
Phys.org / Q&A: Will agentic AI replace human scientists?
An emerging type of artificial intelligence, known as "agentic" AI, seems to do everything that biomedical scientists do—and often, does it faster. This next-generation technology can interpret experimental data, report the ...
