Tech Xplore / A spider-inspired robotic boat could track and rescue people in water
Rescue teams in coastal cities and towns often need to rescue people who are at risk of drowning. These operations often require emergency teams to locate and reach people in distress as quickly as possible, as even a short ...
Phys.org / ESCAPADE's cameras capture Earth and moon
In November 2025, NASA's Mars-bound ESCAPADE (Escape and Plasma Acceleration and Dynamics Explorers) spacecraft launched from Cape Canaveral with special cargo on board: two camera systems designed and built by faculty and ...
Phys.org / Plant-derived lignin could guide bone repair by forming bone-like minerals
A naturally abundant plant material best known for giving trees and crops their strength may one day help repair broken bones, according to a new study led by postdoctoral researcher Dr. Srinath Palakurthy and Professor Rivka ...
Dialog / AI-designed SARS-CoV-2 variants escape prevalent antibodies
While headlines warn that AI could unleash future biological threats, the technology also offers our best defense: a way to anticipate viral evolution and stress-test treatments. Rather than waiting for SARS-CoV-2 to mutate ...
Phys.org / Scientists cut and rebuild molecules from the inside to create new chiral nanocarbons
Nanocarbons are molecular-scale carbon structures considered to be the building blocks for next-generation materials. Until now, scientists have built them by fusing small, flat carbon molecules together at their edges. Modifying ...
Medical Xpress / Teens who struggle to log off social media could face increased ADHD symptoms over time
Social media has become as much a part of our daily lives as eating or sleeping. What started as a way for people to connect and share pictures has grown into a billion-dollar industry that shapes medical, political, and ...
Phys.org / Warm Agulhas Current fuels Western Cape's worst flood‑producing storms
For communities across the Western Cape, cut-off low weather systems are a familiar threat. They can dump torrents of rain in a matter of hours, flooding roads, damaging homes and infrastructure, and, in the worst cases, ...
Phys.org / Restored wetlands aren't clear-cut wins against climate change, study suggests
Wetland restoration is often promoted as a definitive way to support wildlife, improve water quality and help store carbon. However, new research from McGill University suggests the overall climate picture is more complicated. ...
Science X / Inside 530-million-year-old embryos, scientists uncover rare time-lapse of early animal growth
Think of a small fossil as the equivalent of a homemade video of prehistoric life. Fossils formed when sea organisms began their great proliferation more than half a billion years ago rarely contained anything but tough structures. ...
Phys.org / Researchers find factors that cause respiratory impacts after flooding
Researchers at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering and Florida State University's Resilient Infrastructure and Disaster Response Center have identified how hurricane flooding can affect health long after a storm. In research ...
Phys.org / Quantum in the palm of your hand: The evolution of superconducting qubits
Electrons zipping through transistors, powering the screens on our smartphones. Light zooming from distant stars to Earth, moving faster than anything else in the universe. Protons enabling MRI machines to analyze people's ...
Medical Xpress / Widening ethnic and socioeconomic inequalities in stroke identified in 30-year research
The prevalence of stroke risk factors such as high blood pressure and diabetes are higher and increasing faster among black African and Caribbean groups, compared to people from white backgrounds. People from Black African ...
