Phys.org / Study of Tommy Robinson's social media reveals how online influencers mobilize supporters without direct calls to action
New research from the University of Bath reveals that online influencers can mobilize followers and legitimize harmful behaviors without ever issuing explicit instructions, offering fresh insight into how digital platforms ...
Phys.org / Q&A: Colorado river basin under increasing strain; will cutting back on water use be enough to help?
As drought conditions intensify across the American West and the impact of climate change accelerates, cities such as Phoenix, Denver and Las Vegas may face a sobering reality. While it certainly helps, water conservation ...
Phys.org / Metamaterial chains learn new shapes by sharing data hinge to hinge
In a new Nature Physics publication, University of Amsterdam researchers introduce human-made materials that spring to life. These 'metamaterials' don't just learn to change shape, but can autonomously adapt their shape-changing ...

Tech Xplore / Safer, water-based zinc-ion battery delivers 900-cycle durability
Researchers at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering have developed a rechargeable zinc-ion battery that uses low-cost materials and a simplified water-based assembly process to make safer, reliable batteries. The approach ...
Medical Xpress / Who should get the vaccine first? Lessons from the pandemic
It has been six years since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, but one question remains relevant: Who should be first in line when vaccines are scarce? When COVID-19 vaccines first became available, supply was limited and ...
Medical Xpress / Sequencing method exposes hidden gaps in immune signaling by tracking RNA and protein together
A new single-cell technology is giving scientists their clearest view yet of immune cell behavior—capturing not just genetic intent, but real-time activity. By measuring RNA and proteins simultaneously, it reveals cytokine ...
Medical Xpress / First-in-class molecules dial down inflammation without compromising immunity
Scripps Research scientists have developed a new class of drug compounds that reduce harmful inflammation while leaving the body's ability to fight infections intact—a long-sought goal in treating autoimmune diseases. The ...
Medical Xpress / A pocket-sized personal trainer: AI-written texts aim to get older adults moving
Artificial intelligence can write text messages encouraging physical activity that most older adults consider appropriate and good quality, but their feelings about AI—and whether they know AI wrote the message—impact their ...
Phys.org / A nanoparticle therapy to treat lung cancer and associated muscle wasting at the same time
Researchers at Oregon State University have developed a technique for simultaneously treating lung cancer and a serious muscle-wasting condition that often accompanies it. The study, published in the Journal of Controlled ...
Medical Xpress / Neuralink tech paves path to psychopolitics study
A medical, humanitarian, transhumanist and politically neutral project: This is how Neuralink has described itself since it was first founded in 2016. Over the past decade, however, the company created by Elon Musk to develop ...
