Medical Xpress / Redheads face impaired wound healing: MC1R dysregulation to blame, but a new treatment might help
Chronic wounds (CWs), like diabetic ulcers or pressure sores, are a major health care challenge, especially in the elderly. These wounds, marked by persistent inflammation, often lead to infection and poor patient outcomes. ...
Phys.org / How neighborhoods can work to address rise in black bear encounters
UCLA's famed campus Bruin statue doesn't have it all that different from his living, breathing cousins some 30 miles away in the San Gabriel Mountain communities. When encountered on Bruin Walk, people will instinctively ...
Phys.org / New scalable single-spin qubits could simplify future processors
Quantum computers, which operate leveraging effects rooted in quantum mechanics, have the potential of tackling some computational and optimization tasks that cannot be solved by classical computers. Instead of bits (i.e., ...
Phys.org / Boeing's troubled capsule won't carry astronauts on next space station flight
Boeing and NASA have agreed to keep astronauts off the company's next Starliner flight and instead perform a trial run with cargo to prove its safety.
Phys.org / It's a bird, it's a drone, it's both: AI tech monitors turkey behavior
At a time when millions of Americans have turkey on their minds, a team of researchers led by an animal scientist at Penn State has successfully tested a new way for poultry producers to keep their turkeys in sight.

In 1791, the British naval vessel HMS Pandora sank on the Great Barrier Reef while pursuing the mutineers from the HMS Bounty. The mutineers, led by Fletcher Christian, staged an uprising against their captain, Lieutenant ...
Phys.org / Dusty star-forming galaxy at high redshift discovered
An international team of astronomers reports the discovery of a new dusty star-forming galaxy at high redshift. The newfound galaxy, designated AC-2168, was detected using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array ...
Phys.org / Virus battles drug-resistant infections
It's an evolutionary battle, an endless competition for survival, that has spanned millions of years. Within this epic tale for the ages, the skillful characters are mighty, but very, very tiny—they're microscopic. It's ...
Phys.org / LHAASO conducts all-sky search for exploding primordial black holes
Primordial black holes (PBHs) are black holes theorized to have formed shortly after the Big Bang. Compared to black holes emerging from collapsing stars, PBHs could have very different masses, ranging from very small to ...
Tech Xplore / Engineers repurpose a mosquito proboscis to create a 3D printing nozzle
When it comes to innovation, engineers have long proved to be brilliant copycats, drawing inspiration directly from nature. But now some scientists are moving beyond simple imitation to incorporating natural materials into ...
Medical Xpress / Polyamines promote regeneration in aged intestines, study finds
The intestine is among the most regenerative tissues in the body; however, aging triggers various changes that collectively diminish its regenerative capacity.
Phys.org / Richest Iron Age burial assemblage in Southern Levant discovered at Horvat Tevet
A recent study by Dr. Omer Peleg and his colleagues examined the unique 7th-century BCE (Iron IIC) cremation burial assemblage discovered at Horvat Tevet. The assemblage is the richest and most diverse burial assemblage found ...
