In the 1970s, psychiatric diagnoses were marked by considerable uncertainty and disagreement. Since then, organizations such as the American Psychiatric Association and the World Health Organization (WHO) have worked to develop ...
Medical Xpress / Newly discovered stem cell reveals potential drug target for spinal stenosis
Researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine and Hospital for Special Surgery have discovered the unspecialized stem cells that give rise to the body's tendons and ligaments, the tissues connecting muscles and bones.
Phys.org / Ancient DNA reveals 1,000 years of human-environment interactions at Crawford Lake
An international team of scientists has recreated a 1,000-year timeline documenting ecological changes and human impact on the area surrounding Crawford Lake, the famed location of the proposed Anthropocene.
Phys.org / Estuary water quality trends have $100M implications, researchers find
Estuaries across the United States are facing the same trends of warming waters, algal growth and declining oxygen concentrations that threaten water quality and fish populations, regardless of geographic location, according ...
Phys.org / Helium-3 lifts new quantum computing concept with faster tunneling rates
Helium—the lightest atom that can be laser-cooled and controlled—powers a new design for high-powered, stable quantum computers.
Medical Xpress / Targeted antibody treatment reverses diabetic nerve damage in mouse models
A team of UTHealth Houston researchers slowed and even reversed diabetic nerve damage in mice, bringing researchers one step closer to developing a treatment for humans. The research is published in Science Translational ...
Medical Xpress / People with ADHD are more likely to suffer from gut problems, major review finds
University of Warwick researchers have analyzed data from more than 1.9 million people across 23 studies and found that ADHD is linked to an almost 50% increase in overall gastrointestinal symptoms compared with people without ...
Phys.org / Physics-aware benchmark reveals why similar materials AI models can predict thermal conductivity differently
Material properties such as sound insulation, resistance to extreme heat and thermal expansion originate from how the zillions of microscopic building blocks (nuclei and electrons) interact at equilibrium and respond to perturbations. ...
Phys.org / Excavations at Prado Vargas now span 140 square meters of a Neanderthal layer
The 2026 field season at Prado Vargas Cave, located in the village of Cornejo in the northern province of Burgos, Spain, within the Ojo Guareña karst complex, has expanded the excavation of Neanderthal sublevel 4D by 32 square ...

Around 700 years ago, people living on hilltop settlements on the edge of the Kalahari wore beads, bangles and clips made from metal traded across the southern half of the African continent.
Phys.org / A 'wholistic' view of cellular communication across an entire animal
It can't be heard, but different parts of the human body are in constant conversation, communicating to keep the entire system running efficiently. For biologists, being able to listen in on this discussion is a long-sought-after ...
Phys.org / Pumping antibiotics out: A new route to bacterial drug resistance
Bacteria can survive antibiotics in several ways, including by pumping the drugs out of their cells before they can take effect. Researchers at the University of Osaka have discovered a previously unknown mechanism that allows ...
