Medical Xpress / Stimulating mitochondria to boost long-term memory
An international team led by Jaime de Juan-Sanz at the Paris Brain Institute has shown that slightly increasing the metabolic capacity of neurons can enhance long-term memory in both fruit flies and mice. The study, published ...
Medical Xpress / Why do falls rise with age? Study points to cerebellar neuron firing
A new McGill University study has found a direct link between age-related declines in neuron activity in the cerebellum and worsening motor skills, including gait, balance and agility. While it is well known that these abilities ...
Phys.org / AI develops easily understandable solutions for unusual experiments in quantum physics
Researchers at the University of Tuebingen, working with an international team, have developed an artificial intelligence that designs entirely new, sometimes unusual, experiments in quantum physics and presents them in a ...
Tech Xplore / Successfully commercializing novel solar cells: When records are not enough
It is not easy to bring new technologies from the laboratory to market. Researchers and companies face very different demands for new developments and do not always find common ground. Scientists at Empa and other institutions ...
Phys.org / Heat relief means higher emissions: How air conditioning complicates 1.5°C goals
While air conditioning protects people from dangerous heat, it also significantly worsens global warming—by 2050, potentially producing more carbon dioxide than the current annual emissions of the United States, a new study ...
Medical Xpress / Single daily pill shows promise as replacement for complex, multi-tablet HIV treatment regimens
A new, daily oral tablet that combines two current HIV treatment medications, bictegravir and lenacapavir (BIC/LEN), could effectively replace more complicated HIV treatment regimens used by people living with HIV who are ...
Medical Xpress / Call for dentists to reduce unnecessary nitrous oxide use
Nitrous oxide used for sedating patients during dental appointments has a significant environmental impact, with wide variation in use and wastage across the UK, according to a new study by UCL (University College London) ...
Phys.org / Globe-trotting ancient 'sea-salamander' fossils rediscovered from Australia's dawn of the Age of Dinosaurs
Around 250 million years ago, what is today scorching desert in remote northwestern Australia was the shore of a shallow bay bordering a vast prehistoric ocean. Fossils recovered from this region over 60 years ago, and almost ...
Phys.org / Cannabis essential oils unlock how camphor repels mosquitoes
From summer evenings to global disease prevention, mosquito repellents are a daily defense for billions of people, yet until now, scientists didn't fully understand how mosquitoes themselves perceive these "keep away" signals. ...
Tech Xplore / Report recommends 'net neutrality for AI'
Innovation in artificial intelligence applications, including the rising tide of AI agents, is based on startups accessing AI foundation models offered by Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google. Each of these companies also competes ...
Tech Xplore / Water-based enzyme ink enables one-step printing of wearable biofuel cells
Enzymatic biofuel cells can act as self-powered wearable biosensors by converting chemicals in body fluids into electricity; however, manufacturing challenges have prevented their widespread adoption. Now, researchers from ...
Phys.org / Worming out the molecular secrets behind collective behavior
Studying social behavior is crucial for understanding how certain neuromodulatory pathways—like the serotonin pathway, which influences mood and social interactions—are regulated. Kavita Babu, Professor at the Centre ...
