Tech Xplore / Researchers develop key technology to make personalized AI safer
The era of building "personalized AI" by training AI models on individual or corporate documents and data is beginning. However, while such customization can improve task performance, it can also weaken a model's existing ...
Medical Xpress / Imaging study reveals widespread brain connection loss in schizophrenia
Research involving a Rutgers professor sheds new light on the biological basis of schizophrenia by directly measuring synaptic connections in the human brain using specialized positron emission tomography (PET) imaging.
Phys.org / Seals filter sound through blood-filled tissue to hear underwater, study reveals
The secret of how seals can hear in air and water has been revealed, thanks to pioneering research led by Natural History Museum scientists.
Phys.org / Scientists strike invisible gold in the deep sea—locked inside fool's gold
Pyrite, an iron sulfide ore, is often known as fool's gold because its shiny metallic luster and pale brass-yellow color can easily fool the untrained eye into mistaking it for real gold. This time, however, 360 kilometers ...
Phys.org / The secret to hydrogen's quantum behavior lies in symmetry
As interest in clean hydrogen power grows, so does the need for safe storage and transportation materials. One such material, vanadium, is a leading candidate because it readily absorbs hydrogen and allows it to move through ...
Medical Xpress / How did the COVID-19 pandemic shift seasonal surges of other respiratory diseases?
A German analysis explores what underlies shifts in the timing of seasonal surges of respiratory diseases, as well as shifts in surges of heart-related deaths, that occurred after the COVID-19 pandemic began. Michael Sieber ...
Medical Xpress / Shape-shifting drug hits tumors in multiple ways, improves outcomes in mice
Modern anticancer medications that combine tumor-fighting drugs with proteins that specifically target cancer cells are a relatively new class of drugs, often given to patients for whom standard chemotherapy has not worked. ...
Medical Xpress / Study reveals why some colorectal cancers respond better to immunotherapy
A subset of cancers, known as microsatellite instability (MSI) and deficient DNA mismatch repair (dMMR) cancers, are more visible to the immune system than others. Because their DNA repair systems are defective, these tumors ...
Phys.org / Haven or trap? Study finds sinkholes protect endangered tree at evolutionary cost
Are giant sinkholes in China's karst mountains havens or traps for the rare plants that inhabit them? A new study finds they are both—offering refuge from heat and drought while gradually eroding the evolutionary potential ...
Phys.org / New evidence of the transition from the last hunter-gatherers to early farming communities
Archaeological work conducted at the Coves del Fem (Ulldemolins, Priorat)—located within the Serra de Montsant Natural Park—between May 30 and June 28, 2026, has yielded important new evidence for understanding the prehistory ...
Phys.org / Oxygenic photosynthesis works with one photosystem, overturning 50-year textbook rule
LMU researchers demonstrate that oxygenic photosynthesis can occur with only a single photosystem, overturning a fundamental principle of biology.
Tech Xplore / Q&A: Neural transparency and the future of AI design
Millions of people are now designing their own personalized artificial intelligence companions, yet most have little idea how those creations will actually behave. In a new paper, MIT Media Lab Assistant Professor Pat Pataranutaporn ...
