Medical Xpress / Review on glioma organoid models proposes new classification framework for brain cancer research
Researchers from the Terasaki Institute for Biomedical Innovation, together with key pioneers in glioma biology, neuro-oncology and stem cell biology, have published a comprehensive review in Society for Neuro-Oncology's ...
Tech Xplore / Wing-shape tests could unlock smoother water-to-air drone launches
A bird bursting from the ocean or a mobula ray launching skyward makes the transition from water to air look effortless. For unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones, it's one of the hardest maneuvers to ...
Medical Xpress / How wastewater could spot hidden HIV burden in communities before clinics do
Human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) detection in wastewater offers a novel approach to monitor the virus in communities. Baylor College of Medicine researchers and colleagues at collaborating institutions report in Nature ...
Medical Xpress / Hidden switch lets two of four receptor subunits open brain ion channel
To transmit excitatory signals, nerve cells mostly use glutamate as a neurotransmitter. To detect these transmitter signals, the cells can rely on a whole repertoire of receptors with different signaling properties. Researchers ...
Medical Xpress / Fixed-duration triplet therapy demonstrates efficacy for patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia
Triplet therapy with pirtobrutinib, venetoclax and rituximab as a two-year fixed-duration therapy improves progression-free survival for patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) compared with standard-of-care ...
Phys.org / How a shape-shifting tiny rover inspired by Japanese toys autonomously explored the moon
Moon missions come in all shapes and sizes, from car-sized rovers packed with scientific equipment to towering rocket payloads—and now, a small, shape-shifting machine that is about the size of the average palm.
Phys.org / Parks can cool neighborhoods and cut pollution hundreds of meters beyond their boundaries, study finds
Urban parks could play a major role in protecting people from rising heat, pollution and noise in cities, according to new research led by the University of Surrey's Global Centre for Clean Air Research (GCARE).
Medical Xpress / Boosting protein folding could protect insulin-making cells in diabetes
Origami masters turn simple sheets of paper into ornate sculptures. In the origami of life, our cells must fold proteins into specific three-dimensional shapes before they can carry out their biological jobs. This folding ...
Tech Xplore / Russian satellites linked to mysterious GPS disruptions across several countries
Since 2019, GPS signals across Europe, Greenland and Canada have experienced a huge spike in sudden, widespread signal blackouts. These have resulted in disruptions and degraded performance in navigation systems that airplanes ...
Medical Xpress / Asthma attacks reshape airway tissue through mechanical stress, lung-on-a-chip reveals
About 25 million people in the U.S.—roughly eight out of 100—are diagnosed with asthma. Allergens, air pollution, extreme weather conditions and other irritants can cause chronic lung inflammation, leading to coughing, wheezing ...
Tech Xplore / Administration's AI security order acknowledges risks but stops short of regulating industry
Some technology and policy watchers were surprised when President Donald Trump signed an executive order on June 2, 2026, establishing a framework for AI security. It seemed to move in a different direction from a December ...
Phys.org / Unintended consequences: When AI backfires in the workplace for employees
While most businesses have introduced AI in the workplace to enhance employee productivity, an Auburn University information systems researcher cautions that under certain circumstances, AI deployment can inadvertently zap ...
