Phys.org / New nanomagnet production process improves efficiency and cuts costs
Researchers at HZDR have partnered with the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim, and the Institute of Nuclear Physics in the Polish Academy of Sciences to develop a method that facilitates the manufacture ...
Phys.org / First human DNA-cutting enzyme that senses physical tension discovered
An international research team has identified a human protein, ANKLE1, as the first DNA-cutting enzyme (nuclease) in mammals capable of detecting and responding to physical tension in DNA. This "tension-sensing" mechanism ...
Phys.org / Artificial photosynthesis catalyst converts carbon dioxide into fuel using sunlight
A joint research team has developed a highly efficient photocatalyst that can convert carbon dioxide into the high-value-added fuel, methane, using sunlight, while explaining its operating principles. The work is published ...
Phys.org / Mini-vortices in nanopores accelerate ion transport for faster supercapacitor charging
Tiny cavities in energy storage devices form small vortices that help with charging, according to a research team led by TU Darmstadt. This previously unknown phenomenon could advance the development of faster storage devices.
Medical Xpress / Researchers detect early brain changes linked to future psychosis development
Researchers from the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine), and NHG Health's Institute of Mental Health (IMH) have mapped how brain networks differ in individuals at Clinical High ...
Medical Xpress / Drug resistance in pancreatic cancer: Scientists pinpoint major and minor signaling pathways that drive it
Cancer drug resistance is the devastating reason that treatments fail and cancers metastasize, spreading to distant sites seeding new resistant tumors elsewhere in the body.
Phys.org / Durable catalyst shields itself for affordable green hydrogen production
An international research team led by Professor Philip C.Y. Chow at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) has unveiled a new catalyst that overcomes a major challenge in producing green hydrogen at scale. This innovation makes ...
Medical Xpress / Neutron scattering sheds light on lung injuries linked to vaping
Researchers from the University of Windsor are using neutrons at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory to better understand symptoms associated with e-cigarette/vaping-associated lung injury (EVALI).
Medical Xpress / Dietary restriction fuels T cells with ketones, boosting their cancer-fighting stamina
Reducing calorie intake helps cancer-fighting immune cells do their jobs more effectively, reports a study by Van Andel Institute scientists and collaborators. The findings lay the groundwork for developing dietary strategies ...
Phys.org / Student researcher leads discovery of fastest gamma-ray burst ever recorded
Sarah Dalessi, a fifth-year student in the College of Science at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a part of The University of Alabama System, is the lead author of a paper published in The Astrophysical Journal ...
Phys.org / Viruses help drive carbon cycling in deep-sea ecosystems, study reveals
A research team led by Prof. Sun Chaomin from the Institute of Oceanology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IOCAS) has unveiled the crucial role of viruses in deep-sea carbon cycling and microbial community structure. Their ...
Medical Xpress / Q&A: RSV's hidden toll—adults of all ages may struggle with breathlessness, daily activities for months
Recovering from respiratory syncytial virus often doesn't end when it's time to leave the hospital, even for younger adults.
