Medical Xpress / How early-life stress leaves a 'scar' inside brain cells
Experiencing severe stress during childhood can make a person more vulnerable to anxiety, depression and other mood disorders when faced with hardships as an adult. Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine ...
Phys.org / Zoo-housed lions show wild-style behaviors when fed whole carcasses
A new Australian study has found that feeding zoo-housed lions whole-animal carcasses on a feast-and-fast schedule encourages behaviors more closely aligned with those seen in the wild.
Medical Xpress / Melanoma treatment mystery gets new answers from mathematical model
New research from the University of Texas at Arlington helps explain a longstanding puzzle in melanoma treatment: why continuous targeted therapy performed better than planned on-and-off treatment schedules in clinical trials, ...
Medical Xpress / Three in four IVF babies in Australia now born from frozen embryos
Australians undergoing IVF now have a better chance of taking home a baby than they did just five years ago, as new data from Australia and New Zealand show treatment has evolved to become not only increasingly effective ...
Phys.org / Women with narcissistic tendencies may struggle with forgiveness
Narcissism is associated with selfishness and other negative traits like a grandiose sense of self-importance, a constant need for admiration and a lack of empathy for others. So it may not be surprising that narcissists ...
Phys.org / Monsoon cooling helps Great Barrier Reef coral cover hold steady after bleaching
A late-summer monsoon in 2026 brought the Great Barrier Reef a reprieve from unfolding coral bleaching, aiding its initial recovery from recent climate-induced disturbances, according to the Australian Institute of Marine ...
Phys.org / NASA mission maps invisible heat loss from Earth's rapidly changing poles
At the top and bottom of the planet, the seasons arrive on a schedule all their own. Satellite data from a mission measuring infrared energy reveal just how differently—and how dramatically—surface temperatures swing across ...
Phys.org / Coupled AI and physics model improves typhoon-wave height forecasting
Typhoons pose significant threats, with sudden, dangerous waves that endanger ships, offshore platforms and coastal infrastructure in the northwest Pacific Ocean. Current typhoon forecasting methods sometimes underestimate ...
Phys.org / A major Quebec survey finds 5 flaws in the 'augmented work' myth
We're being promised a revolution. Artificial intelligence is said to make work both more productive and more enjoyable by freeing us from tedious tasks and allowing us to devote more time to what really matters. This is ...
Phys.org / Spacecraft observations may conceal how particles really move through near-Earth space
High-energy particles in Earth's radiation belt can appear to spread out randomly, even when they are moving in a "predictable" way. This is because spacecraft observations naturally blur the fine-scale structure of the particle ...
Medical Xpress / Cyclospora spreads through human waste, so how did it get on food?
The nationwide cyclospora outbreak is very likely a result of sewage contamination in the food supply, according to scientific researchers and public health officials.
Tech Xplore / 3D printing method creates soft actuators with switchable heat-driven motion
Soft materials that change shape in response to heat are attracting growing interest in applications ranging from soft robotics to wearable technologies and biomedical devices. However, conventional extrusion-based 3D printing ...
