Medical Xpress / Innovative soft robotic heart offers new way to study disease and test life-saving devices
Researchers at UNSW Sydney have developed a fully synthetic soft robotic heart that reproduces the complex movements and internal structures of the human heart, opening the door to better treatments, safer medical devices ...
Medical Xpress / Home counseling visits increase HIV testing for couples, viral suppression for mothers in Kenya
A home-based counseling program for pregnant women and their male partners increased couples HIV testing and helped mothers living with HIV achieve viral suppression, new research shows. The study, co-led by the University ...
Tech Xplore / Team uses 3D printing to develop zinc-ion hybrid battery with seven times more energy
Storing solar and wind energy to meet the increasing power needs of the electrical grid calls for devices that can deliver power quickly, recharge quickly and last for decades at low cost. A new study led by UCLA has uncovered ...
Phys.org / Layered ZnPS₃ emits single photons, opening new path for quantum chips
Scientists from the Faculty of Physics at the University of Warsaw, in collaboration with teams from the National University of Singapore and Radboud University in the Netherlands, have observed single-photon emission from ...
Phys.org / Crystal-design principle reveals how competing molecular forces control structure, color and phase transitions
Organic molecular crystals can respond to external stimuli such as heat, light, and mechanical force, making them attractive candidates for next-generation functional materials. However, predicting how multiple intermolecular ...
Tech Xplore / Drone-mounted camera can detect plastic landmines without an internet connection
Today's antipersonnel land mines are small and often have plastic casings that standard metal detectors cannot register. Geophysical techniques such as ground-penetrating radar, magnetometry and electromagnetic induction ...
Medical Xpress / Menu photos reveal plate color and size may not drive healthier food choices
The appearance of food images on a menu can influence whether we order large or small portions—or potentially choose healthy or more caloric meals. New research from Flinders University indicates that the color and size of ...
Medical Xpress / TROP2 marks relapse-driving colorectal cancer cells and opens path to targeted treatment
A team led by researchers from the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) and the HI-STEM Stem Cell Institute has discovered a promising new approach to treating advanced colorectal cancer. The study, published in Nature, identifies ...
Medical Xpress / Bacteria's 'mix-and-match' code could create new cancer-fighting drugs
A team of researchers at the University of Warwick and Monash University has solved a puzzle that has stumped drug developers for decades: how bacteria naturally create multiple versions of powerful cancer therapies. The ...
Phys.org / The little red galaxies that may be sending us neutrinos
Peering far into the distant, high-redshift universe, the James Webb telescope has discovered an abundance of small red galaxies known as the Little Red Dots. From their observations, astronomers believe that at least some ...
Tech Xplore / 3D-printed battery electrolyte could let devices store power in almost any shape
Researchers at The University of Texas at El Paso have developed a way to 3D-print an essential battery component in nearly any shape. Their innovation could free engineers from the constraints of standard rechargeable battery ...
Medical Xpress / Faulty calcium signaling may drive dry mouth in Down syndrome, raising gum disease risk
Researchers at NYU College of Dentistry have uncovered what may be biologically driving oral health issues unique to Down syndrome. Their study, published in Cell Reports, describes a molecular mechanism—a defect in calcium ...
