Medical Xpress / Scientists identify pre-cancerous states in seemingly normal aging tissues
A new single-cell profiling technique has mapped pre-malignant gene mutations and their effects in solid tissues for the first time, in a study led by investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine and the New York Genome Center.
Phys.org / After medical issue, SpaceX Crew-11 set to depart space station for overnight splashdown
NASA gave the go for the SpaceX Crew-11 mission to depart the International Space Station on Wednesday headed for an overnight splashdown back on Earth in the Pacific Ocean.
Medical Xpress / Exposure to 'forever chemicals' linked to higher risk of gestational diabetes
Exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), a class of highly persistent environmental chemicals commonly referred to as "forever chemicals," is associated with a higher risk of gestational diabetes mellitus and ...
Phys.org / Melting glaciers may mix up waters more than we thought
As marine-terminating glaciers melt, the resulting freshwater is released at the seafloor, which mixes with salty seawater and influences circulation patterns. As the oceans warm, it's growing increasingly important to study ...
Medical Xpress / When a virus releases the immune brake: New evidence on the onset of multiple sclerosis
Autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis arise when the immune system turns against the body itself. Yet for most of them, it remains unclear why this process begins. Researchers have now identified how the Epstein-Barr ...
Medical Xpress / Hostile racism linked to suicide risk in young Black men
Hostile racism, such as overt, aggressive and demeaning racial encounters, is significantly associated with increased suicidality in young Black adult men. But not all experiences with racism examined in a new study affected ...
Phys.org / Youth rank safety as top priority again, study shows
This year's Values Report from the Center for Scholars & Storytellers (CSS) at UCLA has revealed that despite navigating extreme weather events, global geopolitical conflicts and economic strain, today's young people remain ...
Tech Xplore / Hydrogen planes 'more for the 22nd century': France's Safran
Hydrogen-powered airplanes, touted by some as a way to slash carbon emissions from flying, are unlikely to prove a viable technology anytime soon, the head of French engine maker Safran said Wednesday.
Tech Xplore / Smart gate paves way for reliable hydrogen from seawater
Researchers have developed a simple, scalable way to reliably generate hydrogen with impure water, such as seawater or industrial wastewater.
Tech Xplore / Ultra-small, high-performance electronics grown directly on 2D semiconductors
In recent years, electronics engineers have been trying to identify semiconducting materials that could substitute for silicon and enable the further advancement of electronic devices. Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors, ...
Tech Xplore / Multi-kilogram-scale biomass processing facility transforms agricultural biomass waste into fiber and textiles
UC Riverside chemical engineering researchers have completed construction of a multi-kilogram-scale biomass processing facility that transforms forestry and agricultural biomass waste into pulp that can be made into many ...
Phys.org / Impact of darkwaves on marine ecosystems revealed
An international team of scientists has developed ways to measure and compare the impact of "darkwaves"—when extreme weather events or human activities reduce underwater light for extended periods, affecting the stability ...
