Phys.org / Unique fossil reveals the internal organs of a 245-million-year-old marine reptile
Scientists from China, Europe and the U.S., including Dr. Stephan Spiekman, a paleontologist at the State Museum of Natural History Stuttgart and the University of Hohenheim, have described a fossil of the long-necked marine ...
Medical Xpress / Stockpiled Ebola vaccines trigger antibody response against Bundibugyo virus in lab tests
A highly contagious Ebola virus species, Bundibugyo virus (BDBV), has driven several outbreaks since 2007, including the ongoing outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda in 2026. Bundibugyo virus causes severe ...
Medical Xpress / Immune navigation system discovery could lead to better treatments for chronic inflammation
A scientific collaboration between the University of Bath (UK) and the UMass Chan Medical School (U.S.) has determined how a specific type of white blood cell—neutrophils—moves through the body.
Phys.org / Revisiting a forest experiment that lay forgotten for 30 years
What's the best way to manage a forest? Australians have argued about this for decades. The debate is often framed as binary: Do we protect forests entirely, or harvest trees to support local economies and communities?
Phys.org / A step closer to artificial organs: UV light shapes arteriole-scale hydrogel vessels
The creation of fully artificial organs is a sci-fi dream, and researchers in Japan may have brought it one step closer to reality by developing a new photofabrication technique (i.e., a light-controlled synthetic method) ...
Tech Xplore / Muscle radar unlocks potential for future robotic limbs
University of Queensland researchers have developed new noninvasive sensors that measure muscle forces, unlocking new possibilities for wearable robotic mobility devices. Ultra-wideband radar sensors measure electromagnetic ...
Phys.org / First electrically pumped perovskite polariton laser diode solves a decades-long challenge
Resolving a long-standing problem in semiconductor physics and optoelectronics, a team of researchers from Skoltech—a VEB.RF group institution—and their colleagues from ITMO University and HSE University have for the first ...
Tech Xplore / Charging drones mid-flight with lasers
Wireless charging is nothing new for our phones, watches, earbuds and other tech. Now, researchers want to bring wireless power to the skies—recharging drones in flight by beaming a laser under their wings.
Phys.org / Female birds have shorter lifespans than male birds across 35 North American species, researchers find
Birds have a lot to do in their short lives: defend territories, build nests, raise chicks and feed themselves. But the toll of these activities may be greater for female birds than for male birds. A new study by UCLA ornithologists ...
Medical Xpress / Study identifies which bacteria trigger the 'farm effect' that makes children less prone to allergies
Children who grow up in a farm environment are less prone to allergies, asthma and hay fever than their classmates. This so-called farm effect has been identified in several observational studies worldwide. It is most likely ...
Phys.org / Private mission to rescue NASA's aging telescope runs into its own trouble
The spacecraft rushing to the rescue of an aging and sinking NASA telescope has run into its own problem.
Phys.org / Neptune's inner moons may be shattered remains of ancient icy worlds
In 1989, the Voyager 2 mission discovered six new moons orbiting Neptune, including five tiny ones that orbit just outside the planet's main rings. Because of their small sizes and locations, these satellites have been difficult ...
