Medical Xpress / Faster cancer screening? New AI system offers a better way to detect abnormal cells
One way cancer specialists detect the disease is by examining cells and bodily fluids under a microscope, a time-consuming and labor-intensive process called cytology. It involves visually inspecting tens of thousands to ...
Phys.org / AI develops easily understandable solutions for unusual experiments in quantum physics
Researchers at the University of Tuebingen, working with an international team, have developed an artificial intelligence that designs entirely new, sometimes unusual, experiments in quantum physics and presents them in a ...
Medical Xpress / New targeted base-editing tool corrects genetic brain disorder in mice
Researchers have found that a new base-editing gene therapy can help treat a rare neurodevelopmental disorder called Snijders Blok–Campeau syndrome caused by mutations in the CHD3 gene. A specialized gene-editing tool, ...
Phys.org / Tokyo Bay's night lights reveal hidden boundaries between species
A key characteristic of modern human society is rapid urbanization, a process that can reshape natural environments and disrupt the habitats of many organisms. One widespread byproduct of urbanization is artificial light ...
Phys.org / AI-powered platform accelerates discovery of new mRNA delivery materials
Integrating AI with advanced robotics to create self-driving labs (SDL) is a promising approach to tackling molecular discovery. A new SDL system, called LUMI-lab, combines large-scale molecular pretraining, active learning, ...
Phys.org / Cosmologists collaborate to sharpen measurements of the Hubble constant
Drawing together leading experts from across the field, an international collaboration of cosmologists has created a unified approach for measuring the value of the Hubble constant. Published in Astronomy & Astrophysics, ...
Medical Xpress / Natural compound from pomegranate leaves disrupts disease-causing amyloid
A research team at Kumamoto University has discovered that a natural compound found in pomegranate leaves and branches can directly break down harmful protein aggregates linked to transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis, a progressive ...
Phys.org / Everything can be a bet now: The rise and risks of prediction markets
Yes or no? It's a simple question that now drives more than US$13 billion (£9.7 billion) a month on prediction markets—companies like Polymarket, PredictIt and Kalshi.
Phys.org / Targeted climate policies are successfully cutting carbon, study shows
Countries with stricter and better-targeted climate policies cut carbon emissions faster, according to a major new study by researchers in the UK and EU. The study draws on the most comprehensive climate policy dataset ever ...
Phys.org / Researchers create DNA detection tool to stop spread of invasive Asian swamp eels, bullseye snakeheads
In the canals, marshes, and swamps of the Florida Everglades, invasive fish are silently slipping into new waterways. Among them are the Asian swamp eel and the bullseye snakehead, two air-breathing predators that live in ...
Phys.org / Sunray-like ripples emerge on a frozen reaction front
Researchers in Belgium have unveiled a striking chemical reaction in which ripples along a frozen reaction front resemble the rays of a shining star. Publishing their results in Physical Review Letters, Anne De Wit and colleagues ...
Phys.org / Cannabis essential oils unlock how camphor repels mosquitoes
From summer evenings to global disease prevention, mosquito repellents are a daily defense for billions of people, yet until now, scientists didn't fully understand how mosquitoes themselves perceive these "keep away" signals. ...
