Medical Xpress / Whole-food diet adherence means you really can eat much more and be well-nourished but still consume far fewer calories
Research led by scientists at the University of Bristol and co-authored by top US nutritional experts reveals that people following a completely unprocessed diet ate more than 50% greater amounts of food than those eating ...
Phys.org / New quantum boundary discovered: Spin size determines how the Kondo effect behaves
Collective behavior is an unusual phenomenon in condensed-matter physics. When quantum spins interact together as a system, they produce unique effects not seen in individual particles. Understanding how quantum spins interact ...
Phys.org / ChatGPT found to reflect and intensify existing global social disparities
New research from the Oxford Internet Institute at the University of Oxford, and the University of Kentucky, finds that ChatGPT systematically favors wealthier, Western regions in response to questions ranging from "Where ...
Phys.org / Q&A: How AI changes NASA's search for life in outer space
Alicja Ostrowska's doctoral thesis "Life and AI at NASA" examines how artificial intelligence is transforming the way science is conducted within some of the world's most ambitious space projects. The study investigates how ...
Phys.org / Get ready for smokier air: Record 2023 wildfire smoke marks long-term shift in North American air quality
A new analysis of air quality data from the past 70 years shows that Canada's record wildfire smoke in 2023 is part of a broader, continent-wide trend toward smokier skies across North America.
Phys.org / AI helps reveal global surge in floating algae
For the first time and with help from artificial intelligence, researchers have conducted a comprehensive study of global floating algae and found that blooms are expanding across the ocean. These trends are likely the result ...
Phys.org / Intricacies of Helix Nebula revealed with Webb
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has zoomed into the Helix Nebula to give an up-close view of the possible eventual fate of our own sun and planetary system. In Webb's high-resolution look, the structure of the gas being ...
Phys.org / Observing the positronium beam as a quantum matter wave for the first time
One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the observation that matter behaves differently at the smallest scales. A key finding was wave-particle ...
Phys.org / Unlocking genetic code of crop-damaging fungus paves way for better disease control
Researchers from CSIRO, Australia's national science agency, have unlocked the most detailed genetic blueprint yet of a major soil-borne crop pathogen—an advance that paves the way for better crop disease management in ...
Medical Xpress / Human heart regrows muscle cells after heart attack, researchers discover
Pioneering research by experts at the University of Sydney, the Baird Institute and the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Sydney has shown that heart muscle cells regrow after a heart attack, opening up the possibility of new ...
Phys.org / Meteorologists blame a stretched polar vortex, moisture, lack of sea ice for dangerous winter blast
Warm Arctic waters and cold continental land are combining to stretch the dreaded polar vortex in a way that will send much of the United States a devastating dose of winter weather later this week with swaths of painful ...
Medical Xpress / An oral cancer drug shows promise against aggressive brain tumors
A national clinical trial led by the Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology has found that abemaciclib, an oral cancer drug, may slow tumor growth in patients with aggressive meningiomas that have specific genetic mutations. ...
