Phys.org / New evidence of the transition from the last hunter-gatherers to early farming communities
Archaeological work conducted at the Coves del Fem (Ulldemolins, Priorat)—located within the Serra de Montsant Natural Park—between May 30 and June 28, 2026, has yielded important new evidence for understanding the prehistory ...
Tech Xplore / China's Xi says AI should not be dominated by one country
Artificial intelligence should not be dominated by a single country, China's President Xi Jinping said Friday at a major technology conference in Shanghai, urging international cooperation on its development.
Phys.org / Europe's last pagan state was already diverse: Medieval Vilnius drew migrants from Christian lands
Lithuania was famously the final pagan state in Europe. While the rest of the continent converted to Christianity, Lithuania remained officially pagan until Catholicism was adopted in AD 1387. Despite this, the extent to ...
Medical Xpress / Brain-computer training sharpens detection of tiny movement errors in five days
The brain uses visual cues to coordinate muscle movement. When motor commands and sensory feedback are out of alignment, visuo-motor errors occur. Rapid perception of these errors allows for correction, which is important ...
Phys.org / Tiny magnetic 'flowers' could expand how researchers image spintronic materials under stronger fields
Materials with magnetic nanostructures have a wide range of potential applications. One area is so-called spintronics, with devices that encode information in magnetic domains. These magnetic bits can be written, read and ...
Tech Xplore / Porous material could pull 1.8 liters of drinking water daily from dry air
Researchers in chemistry and materials science at Kiel University are working with partners to develop new water sources for the Mediterranean region. "Regions like these are facing rising temperatures and declining rainfall. ...
Phys.org / Engineers find a precise way to grow artificial blood vessels
Tissue engineers are finding ways to grow living organs and tissues from cells, with the aim of replacing diseased and damaged counterparts in the body. Scientists have successfully grown artificial muscles, livers, kidneys, ...
Tech Xplore / Researchers develop key technology to make personalized AI safer
The era of building "personalized AI" by training AI models on individual or corporate documents and data is beginning. However, while such customization can improve task performance, it can also weaken a model's existing ...
Phys.org / Dead stars in our cosmic backyard: Astronomers spot four white dwarfs hiding under our noses
Researchers at the University of Warwick and the University of Colorado Boulder have directly observed, for the first time, four white dwarfs in binary star systems in our nearby region of space. These stellar binaries are ...
Medical Xpress / Shape-shifting drug hits tumors in multiple ways, improves outcomes in mice
Modern anticancer medications that combine tumor-fighting drugs with proteins that specifically target cancer cells are a relatively new class of drugs, often given to patients for whom standard chemotherapy has not worked. ...
Phys.org / Roadmap paper shows how superconductors can decarbonize transport sector
Superconducting technologies have the potential to supercharge the decarbonization of transport, saving gigatonnes of emissions in the future, a landmark new paper suggests.
Tech Xplore / New soft sensor can turn touch into robotic action without electronics
Built from flexible, compliant materials, soft robots are gaining relevance for tasks ranging from minimally invasive surgery to deep-sea exploration but remain held back by a fundamental constraint. To sense their surroundings ...
