Tech Xplore / Seed crystals push solvent‑free perovskite cells to 25.53% efficiency
Solar cells, devices that can convert sunlight into electricity, are now widely used in many countries, where they are helping to reduce reliance on electricity generated from fossil fuels. While most solar cells used today ...
Medical Xpress / Dual immunotherapy shows promising activity in high-risk early-stage HER2-negative breast cancer
A combination of two immunotherapy drugs showed encouraging activity when added to standard chemotherapy given before surgery for patients with high-risk, early-stage HER2-negative breast cancer, according to Phase II clinical ...
Phys.org / SMOS mission could offer early indicator of El Niño
Sea-surface salinity, the concentration of dissolved salts in the upper layer of the ocean, is much more than a measure of how salty the sea is. It responds rapidly to changes in rainfall, evaporation, river discharge and, ...
Phys.org / Study shows how changes in family ties are associated with mental health among older adults in China
There are roughly 220 million adults in China age 65 or older, more than twice as many as 20 years ago, with 1 in 5 currently reporting depressive symptoms.
Phys.org / Diets high in a particular type of fat help protect bees against pesticides
Diets rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids—a type of fat that supports brain function, cell growth and heart health—may help protect honey bees against the toxic effects of pesticides, according to a study led by researchers ...
Medical Xpress / App can help reduce interdialytic weight gain in chronic hemodialysis
For adults receiving chronic outpatient hemodialysis, use of a smartphone-based app designed to support fluid intake restriction is feasible and associated with sustained reductions in interdialytic weight gain (IDWG), according ...
Phys.org / Tracking satellites and space debris using radio antennae
Every year, thousands of satellites are launched into orbit around our planet. The result is an increasingly congested "space" above Earth populated by equipment that provides services to the surface. At the same time, these ...
Medical Xpress / Family history raises breast cancer risk even when BRCA testing is negative
Women who test negative for BRCA gene mutations may still be at greater risk of developing breast cancer than the general population, according to a study led by Cedars-Sinai Health Sciences University investigators.
Medical Xpress / Tumor-on-a-chip method reveals timing as a factor in glioblastoma immunotherapy
A joint research team led by professors Sungsu Park of Sungkyunkwan University and Sun-Ha Paek of Seoul National University College of Medicine has demonstrated for the first time that the sequence in which immune cells interact ...
Phys.org / Advances in AI-designed base editors pave the way for next-generation gene therapy
A joint research team led by Daesik Kim, a professor in the Department of Medicine at Sungkyunkwan University, along with Yong-Sub Kim, a professor at the University of Ulsan College of Medicine, and Jae-Hyun Park, a professor ...
Medical Xpress / Bloodstream-delivered cell therapy slows muscle decline in young people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, trial finds
A cell therapy called deramiocel could slow muscle weakening in boys and young men with advanced Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and may also slow heart damage in those who already have heart muscle disease, a Phase III ...
Medical Xpress / Molecular lever that regulates neuron signaling may guide treatments for epilepsy, pain and Alzheimer's disease
Neurons transmit information to the next cell by converting electrical signals into chemical signals. A critical step in this process is the influx of calcium ions into the cell through voltage-gated calcium channels. A research ...
