Phys.org / Rare-earth ions could enable telecom-ready control of interacting qubits
Quantum technologies are devices and systems that exploit the laws of quantum mechanics and could perform tasks that are difficult or impossible to tackle using their classical counterparts. These technologies process and ...
Medical Xpress / Eye contact helps infants 'tune in' to speaker's brainwaves and learn language
Infants use eye contact with speakers to work out what to pay attention to and synchronize their brainwaves, helping them learn language, scientists in Cambridge and Singapore have shown.
Phys.org / Solar wind stirs Mars' upper atmosphere, boosting ion loss to space
Our sun constantly releases a stream of high-speed charged particles, known as the solar wind. Unlike Earth, Mars does not have a strong global magnetic field to shield its atmosphere from this flow. As a result, the solar ...
Phys.org / A new genetic tool helps researchers uncover the logic of gene regulation
The human genome contains more than 20,000 genes. However, at any given time and in a given cell, only a fraction are active. Researchers from EMBL Heidelberg's Krebs Group have developed an innovative experimental approach ...
Medical Xpress / Brain training app makes adults with ADHD feel sharper but tests show no real change
Once believed to be a condition that children outgrow, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is now recognized as a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition that often persists into adulthood. For many adults, it can ...
Medical Xpress / Experimental treatment significantly slows progression of a fatal brain disease in women during clinical trial
Researchers at Tel Aviv University have presented new findings indicating that the experimental drug Davunetide may significantly slow the progression of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) in women, who exhibited a markedly ...
Medical Xpress / Scientists restore lost protein to reverse lung disease in preclinical models
Researchers at the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC have identified a natural protective protein that maintains healthy lung blood vessels. Increasing the expression of this protein in preclinical models of pulmonary ...
Tech Xplore / AI reduces sensory hallucinations, even at night or in smoke
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs), which process multiple types of sensory information, such as text, images and audio, at the same time, are rapidly expanding the range of applications for artificial intelligence ...
Medical Xpress / Chromosome-protecting protein may help explain muscle repair and the rarity of muscle cancers
A protein best known for protecting the ends of chromosomes also helps muscle stem cells preserve their identity and repair damaged tissue, according to a new study from researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the ...
Phys.org / Ancient diamond preserves evidence of water-bearing mineral deep in Earth's mantle
A team of Brazilian researchers discovered the first direct evidence that goethite—the mineral responsible for the brown color of soils—can withstand extreme pressures and temperatures all the way to the planet's interior ...
Phys.org / Tabby's star may be orbited by a planetary-mass companion
By analyzing data from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and conducting new radial velocity measurements, U.K. and French astronomers have found evidence that the mysterious Tabby's star may be orbited by ...
Medical Xpress / Chemicals present in drinking water may carry a hidden risk tied to uterine cancer
In a recent study, researchers examined whether certain chemicals present in public drinking water are linked to uterine cancer, the most common gynecological cancer in the United States and one that has been steadily increasing ...
