Phys.org / Novel forecasting model developed to predict river temperature
The temperature of rivers is something most people think about only if they plan to go swimming, kayaking or spend a day fishing. Few consider how it could potentially affect their electricity bill.
Phys.org / Custom protein binders zero in on near-identical disease targets with unprecedented selectivity
In the human body, the boundary between health and severe illness can be microscopic. For decades, molecular scientists have grappled with a frustrating biological reality: The proteins driving devastating diseases often ...
Medical Xpress / Novel therapy may reverse autism-related brain deficits, study suggests
Researchers have identified a promising new therapeutic strategy for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). A research team led by Director KIM Eunjoon of the IBS Center for Synaptic Brain Dysfunctions has now identified a promising ...
Medical Xpress / Blood antibody levels could clarify long COVID prognosis and memory problems
Persistent symptoms after COVID-19 infection continue to affect millions of people worldwide, even as the number of acute infections has declined. Long COVID (LC) can cause fatigue, headaches, sleep disturbances, breathing ...
Phys.org / Silent volcanic gas buildup revealed six months before La Palma eruption
Researchers at Geosciences Barcelona (GEO3BCN-CSIC) have developed a novel way to monitor the silent accumulation of volcanic gases beneath Earth's surface using seismic ambient noise. The results could significantly improve ...
Phys.org / Would you buy milk from a gene‑edited cow? Consumers may be more open than you think
As temperatures rise, New Zealand's dairy farmers face a growing challenge: keeping cows cool enough to remain productive. Heat stress can reduce milk production, harm animals and lower the environmental efficiency of dairy ...
Phys.org / P53's five-hour rhythm may let resonance target gene networks on command
Can networks of genes be stimulated using resonance? Researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute are investigating whether the protein p53, which activates a range of different genes, can be induced to communicate with the body's ...
Phys.org / New 3D microscope technology captures high-resolution tissue images at a fraction of the cost
A team led by Raju Tomer, professor of biological sciences at Columbia University, has created a new design for microscopes and microscope lenses that could push 3D tissue imaging beyond state-of-the-art systems while drastically ...
Tech Xplore / New OS kernel uncovers hidden Apple M1 behavior and possible Phantom attack
A new kernel (core program) within an operating system gives researchers a cleaner view of what's happening inside a processor. Called Fractal and developed at MIT, the kernel has already surfaced previously unknown behavior ...
Phys.org / Bacteria can learn and form memories without a brain
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have shown that bacteria can learn from past experiences, store memories across generations and adapt their behavior to changing environments, all without a brain or nervous system. ...
Phys.org / Landscape water velocities across Europe reshape nitrogen pollution risk under climate change
Nitrate pollution is a growing global environmental challenge due to the extensive use of fertilizer. A study published in Science, led by the Leibniz Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries (IGB) with the Helmholtz ...
Medical Xpress / Drug reduces the risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis, clinical trial finds
A clinical trial led by researchers from Hospital Clínic de Barcelona, the August Pi i Sunyer Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBAPS) and the Institute of Advanced Chemistry of Catalonia (IQAC-CSIC) compared the effectiveness ...
