Phys.org / Fairness-based pathways shift emissions cuts while preserving global climate goals
Who cuts emissions fastest, and who supports others in doing so, are central questions in global climate action. New IIASA-led research shows that building fairness into climate models from the start can inform deliberations ...
Medical Xpress / Eating more eggs and peanuts while pregnant does not prevent infant allergies, clinical trial finds
Millions of people around the globe might never know the taste of a PB&J sandwich or crème brûlée because of severe peanut and egg allergies. For a long time, avoiding exposure to allergy-causing foods early in life was considered ...
Phys.org / Films written by women make studios the most money, but budgets go to male filmmakers: Study
When the lights come back on and credits start rolling, it's easy to see that some of the most successful movies of the past few years—from "Avatar: The Way of Water" and "Jurassic World" to "Barbie"—were co-directed or co-written ...
Medical Xpress / Vitamin C linked to improved outcomes in people with precancerous blood disorders
Vitamin C boosts the activity of cellular proteins called TET enzymes that help control which genes are turned on or off. Because decreased function of TET enzymes is a common driver of certain forms of blood cancer, researchers ...
Medical Xpress / Use of MRI before prostate biopsies increases sharply across U.S. hospitals
Using prostate MRI before a biopsy is a real advance in prostate cancer diagnosis. Multiple randomized trials have shown that imaging the prostate first and then targeting suspicious lesions finds more of the aggressive cancers ...
Phys.org / As cities prepare for 2026's super El Niño, some crucial blind spots can't be ignored
This year's El Niño has the potential to be one of the strongest in living memory, and the evidence is showing up around the world.
Tech Xplore / Researchers extend lifespan of graphite-free anode-free batteries that could make EV batteries smaller and lighter
Korean researchers have developed a technology that could make electric-vehicle (EV) batteries smaller and lighter while helping EVs travel farther on a single charge. A KAIST research team has proposed a new solution to ...
Phys.org / Laser scans reveal 23 hidden ship carvings on Bronze Age temple wall in Cyprus
About 40 years ago, researchers found ancient ship carvings on a temple wall in Cyprus, possibly all carved at once at the tail end of the Bronze Age, around the time of the infamous Bronze Age collapse. Then, decades later, ...
Phys.org / Young users ditch Google for AI, with unknown consequences
Researchers have found that we know very little about how artificial intelligence use impacts younger school children's ability to learn and think.
Phys.org / Researchers measure the environment where the first supermassive black holes formed
When the James Webb Space Telescope pointed its powerful instruments toward the early universe, scientists were surprised by what it found. At high-redshift (z) values, corresponding to less than 1 billion years after the ...
Phys.org / New Zealanders pick endangered black robin as Bird of the Year
A record number of New Zealanders turned out at the polls this month, not for national elections but to vote for their Bird of the Year—the critically endangered black robin.
Tech Xplore / Researchers evaluate materials for solid-state batteries under practical manufacturing conditions
A battery material can meet key performance measures in a small laboratory cell yet fall short when researchers build it into a complete battery cell. At the Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), ...
