Phys.org / Hydrogen's role in generating free electrons in silicon finally explained
Researchers announced that they have achieved the world's first elucidation of how hydrogen produces free electrons through the interaction with certain defects in silicon. The achievement has the potential to improve how ...
Medical Xpress / Lewy body formation in Parkinson's disease: Scientists propose a new molecular roadmap
Proteins form the building blocks of life, but when they form unusual clumps inside the brain, they raise an alarm that something isn't right.
Tech Xplore / New heat-shrinking method integrates electronic circuits on irregular shapes
Most electronics are built on flat, stiff boards, which makes it incredibly difficult to fit them onto curved and irregular shapes we find in the real world, such as human limbs or curved aircraft wings. While flexible electronics ...
Phys.org / How European city life is continually rewriting insect DNA
Cities are known to shape the evolution of wildlife within them, but according to a study of European cities published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, this is not a one-off event. Rather ...
Medical Xpress / Inflammation gives mutated blood stem cells an edge in cancer development
A Northwestern Medicine-led study published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation has uncovered why older individuals with specific genetic mutations face a heightened risk of developing serious blood cancers.
Tech Xplore / The next generation of disinformation: AI swarms can threaten democracy by manufacturing fake public consensus
An international research team involving Konstanz scientist David Garcia warns that the next generation of influence operations may not look like obvious "copy-paste bots," but like coordinated communities: fleets of AI-driven ...
Medical Xpress / Project adds more than 1,000 new African genomes to global science
A newly published paper in Nature describes the complex process of launching a nine-country collaboration in Africa to significantly expand scientists' understanding of human genetic diversity. This can reveal new insights ...
Medical Xpress / Clinical trial finds 24 minutes of music with auditory beats eases anxiety
A new randomized clinical trial has revealed that just 24 minutes of listening to specially designed music paired with auditory beat stimulation (ABS) can significantly reduce anxiety. The research offers a promising complementary ...
Phys.org / Vast cluster of ancient galaxies could rewrite the history of star formation
Astronomers have discovered a vast, dense cluster of massive galaxies just 1 billion years after the Big Bang, each forming stars at an intense rate from collapsing clouds of dust. Reported in Astronomy & Astrophysics by ...
Phys.org / Astronomers discover a companion cluster to Czernik 38
Astronomers from the National Research Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics (NRIAG) in Cairo, Egypt, have investigated a young open cluster known as Czernik 38. As a result, they found a new open cluster, which turns out ...
Medical Xpress / Eye-surgery laser could be adapted for other organs, say scientists
Scientists in Scotland have shown that a type of laser already similar to the one currently used in routine eye surgery could one day help surgeons remove unwanted tissues, such as tumors, with unprecedented accuracy.
Phys.org / Largest canine gut microbiome catalog reveals hundreds of new bacterial strains
Researchers at the Waltham Petcare Science Institute in the UK recently revealed a complete taxonomic and functional catalog of the canine gut microbiome after analyzing samples from 107 healthy dogs across the U.S. and Europe. ...
