Tech Xplore / Palm-sized piezo robot combines mobility with sub-micrometer positioning accuracy
With the speed at which technology advances, there is little room for suboptimal performance and out-of-date tech. Precise positioning is a field where advancement is needed, as many conventional applications feature tools ...
Medical Xpress / Early research shows new blood test can help predict testicular cancer recurrence
A new study co-led by WEHI has found a simple blood test can help identify the early-stage testicular cancer patients who are most at-risk of cancer relapse. The CLIMATE study found a protein, which is released into the bloodstream ...
Phys.org / Scientists rescue lost song of the critically endangered regent honeyeater
Scientists from The Australian National University (ANU) and the Taronga Conservation Society Australia have successfully restored the lost traditional song of one of Australia's most endangered birds, offering new hope for ...
Phys.org / Laser-within-a-laser delivers MeV X-ray radiography in picoseconds
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's National Ignition Facility (NIF) is the hottest place on Earth for the briefest of moments during an experiment. Now, it can be one of the brightest places thanks to the Advanced Radiographic ...
Tech Xplore / From Anthropic to Iran: Who sets the limits on AI's use in war and surveillance?
Anthropic, a leading AI company, recently refused to sign a Pentagon contract that would allow the United States military "unrestricted access" to its technology for "all lawful purposes." To sign, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei ...
Phys.org / A community-driven standard for reporting metal–organic framework syntheses
Scientists at the EU4MOFs research network have taken the initiative to standardize the reporting of synthetic procedures and material properties of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). To this aim, they have developed the ...
Phys.org / Isolating vesicle-cloaked viruses in city and hospital wastewater
Viruses such as human norovirus can travel in vesicles, small fluid-filled sacs that are like shipping containers for cells. Viruses hidden in these containers are often harder to detect and may be more infectious than free-floating ...
Medical Xpress / Brain activity and breathing rhythms operate separately in deepest sleep, finds research
Could the deepest parts of the brain hold some of the secrets of sleep that still remain elusive to science? A team from Hackensack Meridian Health and its Center for Discovery and Innovation (CDI) has produced a new in-depth ...
Phys.org / El Nino may return in 2026 and make planet even hotter
The warming El Niño weather phenomenon could form later this year, potentially pushing global temperatures to record heights.
Phys.org / Missing methane: Countries may be underestimating wastewater greenhouse gas emissions
The amount of greenhouse gases produced by the wastewater sector may be higher than reports suggest. According to a paper published in the journal Nature Climate Change, countries are missing out on reporting a significant ...
Medical Xpress / New diagnostic markers for multiple sclerosis discovered in cerebrospinal fluid
Researchers from the MPI of Biochemistry and the Technical University of Munich have discovered new diagnostic markers for multiple sclerosis (MS), a disease that affects 3 million people worldwide. Using mass spectrometry, ...
Medical Xpress / Novel imaging tracer reveals how tumors use fat to grow
A new King's College London study introduces a brand-new imaging tracer that looks at how tumors use fats to fuel their growth. The human body uses a variety of nutrient sources to provide the energy we need for everyday ...
