Medical Xpress / Physical activity may protect older adults from hearing loss
Researchers from the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders (COMD) have partnered with faculty from across the Arnold School and USC to complete a study investigating the connections among physical function, blood ...
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 ...
Tech Xplore / AI-powered VR helps planners design better cities
Artificial intelligence (AI) combined with virtual reality (VR) could guide us through tomorrow's cities before they are even built, according to research in the International Journal of Environment and Pollution. Such models ...
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 / 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 / Molecular antennae make light-activated molecular switches more sensitive
From targeted cancer treatments to self-healing materials and microscopic robots, many emerging technologies depend on molecules that can be controlled with light. Researchers at Tohoku University have now developed a way ...
Phys.org / 25 years after 9/11, research traces changing landscape of religious bias
A quarter-century after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, religious bias in America has not disappeared, but the forces shaping it have changed.
Phys.org / Lakes aren't just storing water—they're changing the carbon cycle
Lakes may look like picturesque stopping points along a river or stream, but they can have a big influence on what happens to carbon as it moves through a landscape. New research suggests that the more lake-rich a network ...
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.
Phys.org / AI helps reveal the immersive sensory experiences of ancient Etruscan tombs
The Etruscan painted tombs in Tarquinia, Italy, date to the first millennium BCE and are known for their vivid scenes of music, feasting, processions and the afterlife. While these tombs have been extensively studied, archaeologists ...
Phys.org / As oceans warm, Florida scientists hunt for heat-resistant coral
Off Florida's coast, a team of scientists and trained volunteers in scuba gear descends to the ocean floor, planting young coral onto a reef and examining how others are faring in increasingly warm waters.
Medical Xpress / Engineered antibodies offer broad protection against deadly cobra toxins
A research team has developed a recombinant, nanobody-based antivenom that offers broad protection against venom from geographically diverse cobra and king cobra species in India. The study is published in Science Translational ...
