Medical Xpress / These blood markers can expose colorectal, lung and ovarian cancers before symptoms appear
Biomarkers in the blood could be used for the early detection of colorectal cancer, lung cancer and ovarian cancer. A new study from Uppsala University shows that the performance of such biomarkers is comparable to or better ...
Phys.org / There's a range of magic angles to study superconductivity in a twisted 2D semiconductor
Last year, tungsten diselenide (WSe2) had its magic moment. Two independent research groups discovered "magic angles" at which two atom-thin layers of the unique semiconductor, when twisted relative to one another into what's ...
Phys.org / Ancient teeth reveal clues to the environment humans' early ancestors evolved in millions of years ago
Teeth are like tiny biological time capsules. They tell stories about ancient diets and environments long after their owners have died and landscapes have changed.
Phys.org / Atlantic current system could be weakening faster than expected
The Atlantic current system, or more formally the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), is more likely to weaken than previously thought. That's the conclusion of a new study published in the journal Science ...
Phys.org / Blue Origin reuses New Glenn booster for the first time in Florida launch
Blue Origin, the U.S. space company of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, on Sunday successfully reused and recovered a booster for its New Glenn rocket, confirming its mastery of a technical feat that could boost its launch cadence ...
Medical Xpress / Extra antibiotic doesn't reduce infection risk during surgery to fix complex fractures, trial finds
Adding an extra antibiotic powder doesn't further reduce a person's risk of infection during surgery to repair complex bone fractures, a new study says. People had about the same rate of post-surgery infections whether doctors ...
Phys.org / We designed the turf for the World Cup. Here's how we created the same playing experience across three countries

Medical Xpress / First-line immunotherapy shows success treating advanced colorectal cancer
As colorectal cancer rates rise among young people, most patients with advanced disease still only have one treatment option: chemotherapy. That is rarely a cure, and often life-limiting with very toxic side effects.
Phys.org / Ocean eddies move far less carbon than expected, study suggests
The biological carbon pump moves carbon from near the ocean's surface to deeper regions, maintaining the upper ocean's ability to absorb carbon from the atmosphere. One component of this system is driven by eddies, or relatively ...
Phys.org / Unearthed mega-structure hints at communal rule in Romania 6,000 years ago
Archaeologists working at the ancient settlement of Stăuceni-"Holm" in northeastern Romania have uncovered a mega-structure measuring 350 square meters dating back about 6,000 years. This is one of the few examples of a massive ...
Phys.org / Most people do not realize when a personal message they receive was written by AI, study finds
Two new experiments show that most people do not even consider that a personal message could be AI-generated, even when they themselves use artificial intelligence to write.
Phys.org / Golden eagles in England? Here's the ecological case for bringing them back
England's last recorded pair of golden eagles lived in the Lake District. After the female died in 2004, the male was left alone for 12 years before his death in 2016.
