Phys.org / Seals and sea lions provide clues to evolution of vocalization
Neuroscientists have uncovered new insights into a key evolutionary question: Why can humans talk when most animals can't? The journal Science published the research led by Emory University and the New College of Florida. ...
Phys.org / Cloud-ready simulation framework enables capture of molecular binding pathways
Researchers at the Center for Computational Sciences, University of Tsukuba, have developed an accessible platform to overcome the limitations of conventional static docking simulations, offering new avenues for education, ...
Phys.org / Seeing global trade through the lens of physics
New research from the Complexity Science Hub (CSH) shows why widely used algorithms for measuring economic complexity produce trustworthy results and how these tools may benefit diverse areas such as ecology, social science, ...
Phys.org / A race against time to save Alpine ice cores that record medieval mining, fires, and volcanoes
Ice cores taken from glaciers reveal the air pollution of the past, using atmospheric particles incorporated in snow that fell on the glacier and became ice. Now, scientists have extracted a record of thousands of years' ...
Phys.org / Turning penicillin into a lethal force against bacteria again
When many disease-causing bacteria encounter penicillin, they are not always destroyed right away, shifting into a temporary survival state called antibiotic tolerance. This state allows them to withstand drug levels that ...
Medical Xpress / Heat boosts antibiotics' effectiveness against prosthetic infections
Heat generated by alternating magnetic fields (AMF) helps common antibiotics work better against prosthetic joint infections, researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center found. The study, published in Scientific Reports, ...
Phys.org / AI accelerates elucidation of nuclear forces with explosive neutron star data
A research team is using astrophysical explosions to understand the mysterious forces at work in some of the smallest building blocks in nature: atomic nuclei. In new research published in Nature Communications, the team ...
Medical Xpress / Mouse study sheds light on how the brain recognizes stable patterns in changing scenes
Humans and many other animals can innately recognize familiar objects in their surroundings, irrespective of the angle they are observed from, changes in lighting or other shifts in the surrounding environment. This ability ...
Medical Xpress / Sonodynamic therapy is safe and well-tolerated in high-grade gliomas, first-in-human trial suggests
High-grade gliomas, especially glioblastoma (GBM) and others, remain among the most aggressive brain cancers, with few effective treatment options after the tumor recurs. Even with maximal surgical resection, radiotherapy, ...
Phys.org / Lost page of legendary Archimedes palimpsest found in France
It all started off as a joke, a French researcher told AFP. But what the team found was a piece of history—a long-lost page from a legendary manuscript by ancient Greek mathematician Archimedes which had been languishing, ...
Medical Xpress / Predictive AI tools can enable early detection of intimate partner violence
Researchers at Mass General Brigham have developed a series of artificial intelligence (AI) tools that uses machine learning to identify individuals who may be at risk for intimate partner violence (IPV) using information ...
Medical Xpress / FDA warns Novo Nordisk broke safety reporting rules
Federal regulators have warned the maker of Ozempic and Wegovy that it failed to report possible drug side effects to the government.
