Medical Xpress / Odds of infant mortality higher among US-born than non-US-born individuals
U.S.-born individuals have higher odds of infant mortality than non-U.S.-born individuals, according to a study published online Jan. 6 in JAMA Network Open.
Phys.org / Mass spec innovation uses 'bin' sorting to detect overlooked molecules
Weight says a lot. In the kitchen, it could mean cooking with too little or too much of an ingredient. For scientists, a molecule's weight can help determine its makeup. This, in turn, can shed light on whether a potential ...
Phys.org / Dentin inside wolffish teeth is a rare material: When compressed along its length—it also shrinks in width
The Atlantic wolffish is known for its powerful bite, capable of crushing hard-shelled prey with ease. Now, researchers have discovered that the fish's teeth don't just withstand these extreme forces, they respond in a way ...
Tech Xplore / Hyundai and Boston Dynamics unveil humanoid robot Atlas at CES
Hyundai-owned Boston Dynamics publicly demonstrated its humanoid robot Atlas for the first time Monday at the CES tech showcase, ratcheting up a competition with Tesla and other rivals to build robots that look like people ...
Phys.org / Geometry shapes life: Embryo curvature acts as instruction manual for coordinated cell division
Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires precise coordination; otherwise, the embryo could develop serious complications. Scientists at ISTA ...
Tech Xplore / An AI approach for single-image-based 3D character animation with preserved proportions
In Proceedings of the SIGGRAPH Asia 2025 Conference Papers, a research team affiliated with UNIST reports a new AI technology that can animate 3D characters to mimic the exact movements shown in a single 2D image, all while ...
Medical Xpress / Private equity acquired more than 500 autism centers over the past decade, new study shows
Private equity firms have acquired more than 500 autism therapy centers across the U.S. over the past decade, with nearly 80% of those acquisitions occurring over a four-year span, according to a new study from researchers ...
Medical Xpress / Electric cars won't fix sitting: The health costs of designing cities around cars
Commuters feel this in their bones—time spent in traffic is bad for your health.
Phys.org / Porous copper nanosheets boost energy output in wearable nanogenerators
In recent years, two-dimensional (2D) single-crystalline metal nanosheets have emerged as a promising next-generation platform for self-powered electronics. However, their potential for triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs)—a ...
Phys.org / Retaining employees as they age is possible with more flexibility
Many businesses say they're suffering from labor shortages, but what are their management practices and what measures could be put in place to retain experienced workers?
Medical Xpress / Freestanding birth centers are closing as maternity care gaps grow
Dr. Heather Skanes opened Alabama's first freestanding birth center in 2022 in her hometown of Birmingham. Skanes, an OB-GYN, wanted to improve access to maternal health care in a state that's long had one of the nation's ...
Phys.org / Direct 3D printing of nanolasers can boost optical computing and quantum security
In future high-tech industries, such as high-speed optical computing for massive AI, quantum cryptographic communication, and ultra-high-resolution augmented reality (AR) displays, nanolasers—which process information using ...
