Medical Xpress / 'Forever chemicals' may be linked to childhood leukemia
Early exposure to PFAS, a group of widely used compounds known as "forever chemicals," was associated with a higher risk of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, the most common childhood cancer, according to University of California, ...
Tech Xplore / Taylor Swift files to trademark her voice amid AI clone boom
Taylor Swift has filed applications with the US intellectual property office to trademark her voice, a move similar to one made by actor Matthew McConaughey, as AI-generated content surges.
Medical Xpress / High-precision radiation can significantly reduce life-threatening arrhythmias
High-precision radiation therapy can significantly reduce the number of arrhythmia episodes in critically ill patients with life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias. This is demonstrated by the first large-scale prospective European ...
Phys.org / Cold fronts in nearby galaxy group may redistribute metals, Chandra and GMRT data reveal
Astronomers from South Africa and India have analyzed archival data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory and Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) regarding a nearby small galaxy group known as IC 1262. Results of the new ...
Medical Xpress / Specially-designed cards help ensure science is at the heart of mindful eating technology design
Lancaster University researchers have created a new toolset to guide developers of technologies aimed at helping the millions of people around the world who are impacted by problematic eating and unhealthy relationships with ...
Medical Xpress / New study suggests reduced newborn hepatitis B vaccination coverage may increase infant infections
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection acquired at birth or during early infancy can lead to lifelong health complications, including chronic liver disease. Despite longstanding recommendations for prenatal screening, an estimated ...
Phys.org / Fluorescent probe lights up centrioles and cilia in living cells across species
Scientists at EPFL have developed CenSpark, a fluorescent probe that makes centrioles and cilia visible inside living cells, helping researchers study cell division, development, and immunity like never before.
Phys.org / Inside 18 years of ape minds, a vast record that may upend how human intelligence began
A pioneering project led by researchers from the University of Stirling and the Max Planck Institute has opened the door for new insights into the evolutionary origins of human intelligence, by compiling the largest dataset ...
Phys.org / Alternating atomic layers enable rare electron pairing mechanism in new unconventional superconductor
Superconductors, materials that can conduct electricity with a resistance of zero, have proved to be highly promising for the development of quantum technologies, medical imaging devices, particle accelerators and other advanced ...
Medical Xpress / Battery-free airway device could spot stent complications early through remote monitoring
Vanderbilt researchers led by Xiaoguang Dong, assistant professor of mechanical engineering, have developed a novel device that can be used remotely to continuously monitor the airway stents of patients with diseases like ...
Phys.org / When humidity changes, so do the colors of sweat bees
Nature is a riot of color. In the animal kingdom, many species, from insects to cephalopods, use their permanent color or change it for communication, camouflage, and thermoregulation. While this type of reversible shift ...
Phys.org / Laser bursts flip nanoscale magnetic vortices at blistering speeds, opening a path to brain-like spintronics
Spintronics are devices that operate leveraging the spin, an intrinsic form of angular momentum, of electrons. The ability to switch magnetic states is central to the functioning of these devices, as it ultimately allows ...
