Medical Xpress / Cancer evolution study reveals biology of glioma progression
A form of glioma, a type of brain cancer, tends to progress toward greater malignancy due to an increasing tendency of glioma cells to transform into immature, stem cell-like states, according to a study led by investigators ...
Phys.org / New physics-based machine-learning method speeds search for 2D quantum materials
Researchers at The University of Manchester have developed a new computational approach to help identify two-dimensional materials that may host unusual quantum behavior. The work, published in Science Advances, focuses on ...
Phys.org / Using mechanical vibrations instead of magnetic memory for quantum computing
Quantum computers still face limits when it comes to storing information. Researchers at ETH Zurich are now turning to mechanical vibrations rather than electromagnetic memory. Their new vibrating memory can store significantly ...
Medical Xpress / First-in-human immunotherapy more than doubles progression-free survival in glioblastoma patients
Glioblastoma, the most aggressive malignant brain tumor in adults, remains one of the most challenging cancers to treat because of limited treatment options and a poor prognosis. Patient outcomes have remained largely unchanged ...
Tech Xplore / New method improves control over organic semiconductor doping for flexible electronics
Organic semiconductors are paving the way for a new generation of lightweight, flexible electronics, including bendable displays, printable circuits, wearable sensors and devices that harvest energy from their surroundings. ...
Phys.org / Secure glass containers for storing chemical waste through laser welding
As the adoption of electric vehicles continues to grow, so does the need for the safe and permanent storage of battery materials and industrial chemical waste. Certain waste streams require disposal in what are known as Category ...
Phys.org / Tiny mountain lakes pose big, overlooked flood risks, new study warns
A new international study involving scientists from the University of Aberdeen has revealed a critical blind spot in global climate risk assessments—the growing danger posed by small alpine lakes formed by glacier retreat ...
Tech Xplore / AI job rejections felt least fair when avatars shared just one trait
Companies are increasingly using artificial intelligence in their hiring processes. It's not just CVs that are evaluated automatically. AI tools can also conduct job interviews—usually in the form of avatars, which are animated ...
Phys.org / Carbon–bismuth bonds reveal that relativity blurs the textbook line between sigma and pi bonds
Brown University chemists have provided direct evidence that upends the textbook explanation of how triple chemical bonds work in heavy elements. In a study published in Science, the researchers show evidence that when atomic ...
Phys.org / Quantum material opens new path for studying unusual electronic behavior
By combining approaches from two rapidly growing fields of quantum physics, researchers at Penn State and Saint Louis University have demonstrated that a novel specialized material can naturally enable a new way to study ...
Phys.org / New ligand engineering strategy creates more active nanocluster catalysts
A joint research group from Tohoku University, Tokyo University of Science, Tokyo Metropolitan University and the Japan Fine Ceramics Center has developed a thermal catalyst that exhibits high carbon monoxide (CO) oxidation ...
Phys.org / Study identifies key mechanism regulating how cells use fat to generate energy
An international study by scientists at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares Carlos III (CNIC) and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has identified a fundamental mechanism that regulates ...
