Phys.org / Glassy dynamics model predicts lipid exchange rates across cell membranes
Biological processes that govern our lives are many, intertwined, and often difficult to understand. They involve countless interactions happening at once—molecules recognizing each other, signals being transmitted, and ...
Tech Xplore / Off-grid filtration technology can remove over 99% of nanoplastics smaller than 50 nm
Professor Jeong-Min Baik's research group of the SKKU School of Advanced Materials Science and Engineering has developed a reusable electrokinetic filtration platform capable of filtering more than 99% of ultrafine nanoplastic ...
Medical Xpress / Dietary supplement may protect against inflammation-related injury and death by enhancing kidney function
As soon as you are wounded—whether from grabbing a hot pan or contracting the flu—you begin a unique journey through variable symptoms toward either recovery or death. This journey is called your disease trajectory, and ...
Medical Xpress / Regenerating lost lymph nodes with bioengineered tissues
The rising incidence of cancer worldwide has led to an increasing number of surgeries that involve the removal of lymph nodes. Although these procedures play a major role in cancer staging and preventing the spread of malignancies, ...
Medical Xpress / Whole-food diet adherence means you really can eat much more and be well-nourished but still consume far fewer calories
Research led by scientists at the University of Bristol and co-authored by top US nutritional experts reveals that people following a completely unprocessed diet ate more than 50% greater amounts of food than those eating ...
Phys.org / Multiwavelength variability reveals dust structure in quasars
A research team has investigated quasar variability by tracking optical to mid-infrared (MIR) wavelengths of variability information. This multiband joint analysis provides an opportunity to probe the dust structure in the ...
Phys.org / The art of custom-intercalating 42 metals into layered titanates
A research team affiliated with UNIST has reported a novel synthesis strategy that enables the direct intercalation of a wide range of metal cations into the interlayer spaces of layered titanate (LT) structures. This approach ...
Phys.org / Whales may divide resources to co-exist under pressures from climate change
The North Atlantic Ocean is warming up. Higher temperatures and increased human activity in the region can trigger abrupt changes in marine ecosystems, for example, how species are distributed and what they eat.
Medical Xpress / Machine learning can predict patients' responses to antidepressants—while disentangling drug and placebo effects
Depression is one of the most widespread mental health disorders worldwide, affecting approximately 4% of the global population. It is characterized by a persistent low mood, disruptions in typical sleeping and/or eating ...
Phys.org / Teen girls cannot escape unrealistic beauty ideals on social media, researchers say
Girls between the ages of 13 and 19 are widely exposed to beauty content online that promotes products unsuitable for young skin—even when they are not actively seeking beauty-related information. Moreover, they believe ...
Phys.org / Endometrial mRNA therapy to treat infertility finds early success
Researchers from the Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins Medicine Center for Nanomedicine—which designs nanotechnology-based platforms for clinical translation across specialties—developed a strategy for delivering therapeutic ...
Phys.org / AI helps reveal global surge in floating algae
For the first time and with help from artificial intelligence, researchers have conducted a comprehensive study of global floating algae and found that blooms are expanding across the ocean. These trends are likely the result ...
