Phys.org / Ancient Martian beach discovered, providing new clues to red planet's habitability
New findings from NASA's Perseverance rover have revealed evidence of wave-formed beaches and rocks altered by subsurface water in a Martian crater that once held a vast lake—considerably expanding the timeline for potential ...
Medical Xpress / Heart damage is common and often unnoticed after surgery, but those who see a cardiologist may fare better
An estimated 4.2 million people die within 30 days of surgery worldwide each year. A new study suggests that deaths and serious heart disease might be prevented if some patients see a specialist heart doctor as part of their ...
Phys.org / A push to end a fractured approach to post-fire contamination removal
The patchwork efforts to identify and safely remove contamination left by the 2025 Eaton and Palisades fires have been akin to the Wild West. Experts have given conflicting guidance on best practices. Shortly after the fires, ...
Phys.org / Thinking on different wavelengths: New approach to circuit design introduces next-level quantum computing
Quantum computing represents a potential breakthrough technology that could far surpass the technical limitations of modern-day computing systems for some tasks. However, putting together practical, large-scale quantum computers ...
Phys.org / How gut bacteria control immune responses
Bacteria in the human gut can directly deliver proteins into human cells, actively shaping immune responses. A consortium led by researchers at Helmholtz Munich, with participation from Ludwig Maximilians University (LMU), ...
Medical Xpress / Climate change could cause more than 500,000 malaria deaths in Africa by 2050
New research published today in Nature warns climate change could substantially increase malaria burden in Africa over the coming decades. The study projects that a middle-of-the-road climate scenario could trigger more than ...
Phys.org / Ultrathin kagome metal hosts robust 3D flat electronic band state
A team of researchers at Monash University has uncovered a powerful new way to engineer exotic quantum states, revealing a robust and tunable three-dimensional flat electronic band in an ultrathin kagome metal, an achievement ...
Phys.org / Student well-being comes from care, but is caring enough? Academics reflect on three stumbling blocks
Students' well-being in higher education has been a growing concern globally since the coronavirus pandemic, which disrupted learning and lives generally.
Medical Xpress / Continued exposure to certain heavy metals linked to ADHD in childhood
Impulsivity, hyperactivity, and difficulty concentrating are some of the symptoms associated with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. It is estimated that 6% of schoolchildren in Catalonia suffer to a greater or lesser ...
Medical Xpress / ADHD and methylphenidate tied to higher adult BMI
Seoul National University Hospital researchers have linked childhood attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and methylphenidate exposure with higher adult overweight/obesity and slightly shorter adult height at ages 20 ...
Tech Xplore / Underwater 3D printing may reshape maritime concrete construction
Since it was invented in the 1980s, 3D printing has moved from the laboratory to the factory, the home and even outer space.
Phys.org / Ancient Spanish trees reveal Mediterranean storms are intensifying
Ancient pine trees growing in the Iberian mountains of eastern Spain have quietly recorded more than five centuries of Mediterranean weather. Now, by reading the annual growth rings preserved in their wood, scientists have ...
