Medical Xpress / Cancer is quantum: Studies show cancer cells may occupy limited, shared states like quantized energy levels
Andrea Califano began his career as a physicist. But that's not why he's now calling cancer a quantum disease. "We're really just following the data," says Califano, the Clyde '56 and Helen Wu Professor of Chemical Biology ...
Medical Xpress / 'Must I take all my antibiotics?' Why infectious disease experts are rethinking this longstanding rule
You've probably heard it for years, every time you get a prescription for antibiotics: "Make sure to take all the pills."
Tech Xplore / With clean power comes great responsibility—researcher advocating for fairer energy policies
For many of us, 2026 has been the year when the need for clean energy really hit home.
Phys.org / How everyday household tasks impact relationships
The physical, cognitive and emotional loads of running a household should be recognized when examining the health of a couple's relationship, new research has found. A University of Queensland study examined the "tri-load" ...
Phys.org / New method tests magnet-powered braking for safer, more reusable spacecraft reentry
Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have created a new system to test magnetohydrodynamic aerobraking for spacecraft reentering the atmosphere. Their platform generates intense magnetic fields with a powerful electromagnet ...
Medical Xpress / Next-generation RNA approach provides hope for genetic diseases missed by current drugs
Researchers at the University of Toronto have developed a next-generation RNA therapeutic approach with the potential to treat a wide range of genetic diseases that share certain disease-causing mutations. The work advances ...
Medical Xpress / Memory decline starts earlier than you think, new research suggests
Memory loss is usually thought of as something to address as a person ages. Slip-ups like forgetting someone's name or recognizing a familiar face but not remembering where you know them from are often viewed as issues that ...
Phys.org / Nano-sandwich photocathode improves solar conversion of CO₂ into ethanol
Czech researchers at Charles University in Prague, led by Pavla Eliášová, have developed an advanced photocathode that helps convert the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide into pure ethanol using sunlight. The new technology solves ...
Phys.org / Coral recovery time cut short by warming oceans
Given enough time, coral reefs can recover from cyclones, bleaching and other destructive events. But a new report released today suggests they are losing that time. The "Status of Coral Reefs of the World: 2025" is the most ...
