Phys.org / Light lets microswimmers switch between bacteria-like and algae-like propulsion
Physicists at Leipzig University and Charles University in Prague have developed a method for changing the swimming style of tiny artificial microswimmers in real time. They can make a single microscopic particle switch at ...
Medical Xpress / Annual report highlights progress in cancer research
The American Association for Cancer Research has released its annual Cancer Progress Report, highlighting recent progress in cancer research.
Phys.org / Webb reveals dynamic panorama of star formation, including smallest known brown dwarfs
This starry view of the nearby star-forming region IC 348 is one of the largest images released to date from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope. Using Webb, astronomers searched IC 348 for brown dwarfs, which are less massive ...
Tech Xplore / Can we shut down AI?
The debate over potential dangers posed by artificial intelligence has resurfaced in recent weeks, with researchers once again warning that the technology could end humanity and leaders of AI companies suggesting development ...
Medical Xpress / Unhealthy Western diet linked to faster cognitive decline in people with genetic risk of Alzheimer's
An unhealthy Western-style diet was associated with faster cognitive decline in people with a genetic risk of Alzheimer's disease, according to new research led by Murdoch University and Alzheimer's Research Australia. The ...
Phys.org / Sliding droplets point to charging mechanism beyond mobile ions
Whether on a windowpane at home or during the industrial cleaning of computer chips: droplets sliding over solid surfaces become electrically charged. Yet the physical mechanism behind this charging remains a subject of debate. ...
