Medical Xpress / What is frozen shoulder? And will I need surgery?
Frozen shoulder can make simple tasks—such as lifting your arm, sleeping on your side, getting out of bed, putting on a bra, driving or playing with your kids—painful and challenging.
Phys.org / Katalyst wraps testing at NASA Goddard for Swift boost mission
A daring mission to lift NASA's sinking Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory is now one step closer to launch this June. On May 4, Katalyst Space Technologies completed environmental tests of its LINK robotic servicing spacecraft ...
Tech Xplore / How new helicopter wildfire simulator could make pilot training safer and more realistic
Sophisticated new flight simulation software capable of accurately modeling the performance of firefighting helicopters could help train pilots to tackle wildfires more effectively in the future. Researchers from the University ...
Medical Xpress / Brain-controlled hearing system isolates one speaker in noisy settings, first human tests show
Scientists at Columbia University's Zuckerman Institute have the first direct evidence from human studies that brain-controlled hearing technology can help people single out a voice in a crowd. These early findings suggest ...
Phys.org / Earth's first continents may trace back to subduction 3.5 billion years ago
An international team of researchers' analysis of minerals from the Pilbara region of Western Australia has given new insight into how ancient continents on Earth formed as far back as 3.5 billion years ago. Professor Tony ...
Phys.org / Old plant populations offer new clues to climate resilience
When scientists think about how plants will respond to climate change, they often look north. As temperatures rise, many species are expected to shift their ranges toward cooler regions with a loss of populations in warmer ...
Tech Xplore / Solar-powered gel pulls drinking water from the air
Scientists in recent years have sought to efficiently draw moisture from ambient air and condense it into potable water using materials made of salt and absorbent polymers. But these materials, known as hydrogels, until now ...
Phys.org / 'Elegant triangle' experiment suggests quantum internet may be closer than we think
For more than 60 years, Bell's theorem has been the gold standard for demonstrating that quantum mechanics defies the rules of classical physics. Now, an international team of researchers, including Constructor University ...
Medical Xpress / Dietary changes in older people can improve 'biological age'
Older Australians who reduce either dietary fat or animal-based protein show signs of reduced biological age, new research from the University of Sydney shows. Published in Aging Cell, the findings revealed 65- to 75-year-olds ...
Phys.org / Black holes don't live forever, but they might live long enough to look like white holes
Black holes live forever, at least according to general relativity. Once material crosses a black hole's event horizon, it is trapped forever, until the last day of cosmic time. But we know that isn't true. General relativity ...
Medical Xpress / The robotic penguin that makes endoscopy optional
Researchers at the TechMed Center of the University of Twente have built a swallowable soft robot that samples stomach fluid and measures acidity in real time. The robot has no battery, chip, nor any other electronics. Health ...
Phys.org / Deep beneath Swiss Alps, researchers trigger 8,000 tiny quakes in controlled test
Researchers have made the ground shake in southern Switzerland, triggering thousands of tiny earthquakes in a monitored setting, as they seek to discover seismicity insights that could reduce risks.
