Tech Xplore / Majority voting method provides a smarter way to catch software bugs
Researchers from The University of Osaka, Kyushu University, and the University of Victoria have developed a new method called Majority Voting SZZ (MV-SZZ) that accurately identifies defect-inducing software commits. By combining ...
Medical Xpress / Blood test reveals nine tumor cell 'neighborhoods' tied to immunotherapy outcomes
A simple blood test can reveal the geographic relationships among healthy cells surrounding a cancerous tumor, researchers at Stanford Medicine and the Mayo Clinic have found. The test is the first noninvasive way to study ...
Phys.org / Carbon-free ferrocene alternative opens up new possibilities for future materials
About 75 years ago, scientists accidentally synthesized a compound called ferrocene in which the iron (Fe) atom is sandwiched between two C5H5 rings—(C5H5)Fe(C5H5). This compound opened up a new era in transition metal chemistry, ...
Phys.org / New insight could change how we break down 'forever chemicals'
PFAS, often called "forever chemicals," are notoriously difficult to remove from the environment. Their extreme chemical stability means they can persist in water and the human body for decades, creating a major global pollution ...
Phys.org / Louisiana's shrinking coast may offer world early guide to climate adaptation
A Tulane University-led team of interdisciplinary researchers says coastal Louisiana's climate-driven land loss and population shifts could position the state to become a global leader in planning for climate adaptation.
Medical Xpress / Cranberry juice may boost UTI antibiotics
More than 400 million people experience a urinary tract infection every year, and some epidemiological studies estimate that more than half of all women will develop at least one in their lifetime. Most UTIs are caused by ...
Dialog / 'Solar-blind' 2D heterostructure delivers 422-fold responsivity gain for UV sensing
Photodetectors remain a critical component in the development of advanced electronics and photonics, particularly in the role of signal readout through the conversion of photons into electrons. These digital imaging components ...
Phys.org / A snapshot of food insecurity among immigrants
When you hear the term "food insecurity," what do you imagine? Do you equate it with poor dietary practices—in other words, eating badly? And do you believe the solution is getting people to better plan, shop for and prepare ...
Medical Xpress / AI screening tool gives pathologists 'spatial super vision' to detect hidden cancer
QIMR Berghofer scientists have developed an AI screening tool that harnesses the power of cutting-edge spatial biology analysis to give pathologists "super vision" to detect hidden genetic markers of cancer in standard patient ...
Medical Xpress / Why zebrafish hearts heal so well: Early immune signals can improve repair even further
When the human heart is damaged by a heart attack, stiff scar tissue eventually forms around the affected areas. This weakens the heart's pumping ability and increases the risk of heart failure and arrhythmias. Zebrafish, ...
Phys.org / Deforestation may push Amazon degradation threshold below 2°C warming
Around two-thirds of the Amazon rainforest could shift into degraded forest or savanna-like ecosystems at 1.5–1.9°C of global warming if deforestation increases to roughly 22–28% of the Amazon, according to a new study from ...
Phys.org / Synchrotron X-rays uncover hidden protein binding sites, enabling two new functions
Using bright X-rays from the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), researchers pioneered an innovative approach to designing proteins with targeted ...
