UK media celebrity Jeremy Clarkson this week revealed he has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer.
Medical Xpress / AI model proves to be a heavyweight in tumor assessment: Mesothelioma patients and physicians benefit
Physicians and researchers at the Netherlands Cancer Institute have developed an AI model that outperforms physicians in evaluating treatment response in pleural mesothelioma. Far more accurate than the current international ...
Phys.org / Why one famous predator shrank two ways: Fossils reveal distinct growth strategies in early Permian Dimetrodon
The sail-backed predator Dimetrodon is one of the most iconic animals of the early Permian—long before dinosaurs dominated Earth. Most known species of this early relative of mammals reached large body sizes, sometimes up ...
Medical Xpress / Amyloid precursor protein protects neurons during nuclear waste disposal
Researchers at Niigata University's Brain Research Institute have uncovered a new function of amyloid precursor protein (APP), a molecule long studied as the precursor to amyloid-β (Aβ) in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The study ...
Phys.org / Devoted dads and citizen science: The evolution of parental care in harvestmen spiders is uncovered
Citizen science data from the popular platform iNaturalist has helped uncover the evolution of parental guarding behavior in harvestmen spiders, as shown in research published in the Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society.
Tech Xplore / Could AI tell you where you left your keys?
An auto factory worker can remember the storage bin where she left a partly assembled component the night before and quickly return to that spot to pick it up. But robots that may work side by side with her would struggle ...
Medical Xpress / How blood flow shapes lung health in children with heart disease
A study led by UTSW sheds light on why children with certain complex congenital heart defects are at risk for long-term lung complications and points to a potential path for improving outcomes.
Phys.org / Plants maintain photosynthesis in hotter, drier climates by coordinating biochemical processes to stabilize CO₂ levels
Researchers at The Australian National University (ANU) have uncovered a mechanism that helps plants continue photosynthesizing under extreme heat and dry air conditions—a finding that could improve how scientists predict ...
Phys.org / New swine influenza vaccination technique can greatly strengthen disease protection

Phys.org / Rare B meson decays tighten search for hidden particles and dark matter links
A University of Melbourne researcher has placed the strongest constraints yet on certain rare decays of subatomic particles, narrowing the window for where new "hidden" particles could be lurking.
Phys.org / Hubble glimpses merging galaxy clusters
This NASA Hubble Space Telescope image features a galaxy cluster called CL0016+1609, or MACS J0018.5+1626, that is very bright at X-ray wavelengths and is one of the most extensively studied clusters at X-ray and radio wavelengths. ...
Phys.org / How bacteria exploit human cell metabolism to sharpen infections and potentially evade treatment
A research team at the University of Greifswald's Research Training Group RTG-PRO "Proteases in pathogen and host: importance in infection and inflammation" has discovered a new mechanism by which bacterial pathogens adjust ...
