Tech Xplore / Can the buckling Manhattan skyscraper be saved? Engineers weigh in
As officials continue to investigate the cause, experts say that if the conversion is to proceed, "extensive work" would need to be done to shore up the damage and evaluate the building's safety and integrity.
Phys.org / Varroa risk to Tasmanian crop pollination
A study by the Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture (TIA) has highlighted the impact Varroa mites will have on crop pollination in Tasmania if the parasitic mites become established in the state. The study was prompted by the ...
Tech Xplore / New federated learning algorithm enables private, robust, and fast AI development
Three heads are better than one. Versions of this proverb are found worldwide and throughout history. Yet in the race to achieve artificial general intelligence, engineers have centralized AI development and training to accelerate ...
Tech Xplore / Cheaper catalyst turns captured carbon dioxide, methanol and hydrogen into ethanol
An international team of researchers has developed a homogeneous catalytic process that converts methanol, carbon dioxide and hydrogen into ethanol using inexpensive and stable catalyst precursors.
Medical Xpress / Genetic insights into a fluid-related brain condition in newborns
Early detection and treatment of congenital cerebral ventriculomegaly (CCV)—when a fetus's fluid-filled brain ventricles swell due to a condition called hydrocephalus—can help clinicians prevent developmental or neurological ...
Tech Xplore / Holographic printer produces 3D shapes in one shot
University of Utah researchers have demonstrated a new method of 3D printing that avoids the leaky seams that come with the layer-by-layer process. Using a nanoscale "mask" that diffracts laser light into a holographic pattern ...
Medical Xpress / Lower diversity and poorer function of gut bacteria linked to frailty in older women
Researchers at the University of Gothenburg have identified clear links between the composition of gut bacteria and frailty in older women. In cases of high frailty, with an increased risk of illness and death, gut bacterial ...
Medical Xpress / What World Cup football can teach us about managing fatigue in extreme conditions
A football player standing over a penalty in a hot, high-altitude stadium is dealing with more than pressure. His body is trying to keep cool. His heart and breathing may be working harder. Less oxygen is reaching his muscles. ...
Phys.org / What powers the Everglades? Study tracks how algae and plant matter fuel the food web
Scientists thought dead plant material was primarily powering the Everglades. Algae says not so fast.
Phys.org / Researchers uncover the inside story on plant organ growth
Research has shed intriguing new light on the genetics underlying the diverse plant organ shapes seen in agriculture and nature. Despite more than a century of scientific investigation into the role of inner and outer tissues, ...
Medical Xpress / Race and ethnicity modify the association between US socioeconomic status and metabolic disease
Higher socioeconomic status is not associated with equal reductions in rates of type 2 diabetes and obesity across all racial and ethnic groups in the United States, according to a new study published July 8, 2026, in the ...
Medical Xpress / Gut bacteria boost immune system, help send vitamin A to T cells
Scientists at UT Southwestern Medical Center have discovered that gut bacteria help regulate the development of the body's immune system by directing the movement of vitamin A through a previously unrecognized cellular network. ...
