Phys.org / Extreme weather is making Antarctic research harder, but new technology is providing some answers
When you think of Antarctica, you might imagine a stark, otherworldly continent of endless, white ice, with the only sound being the wind punctuated by the crack of a glacier calving in the distance.
Phys.org / Food industries embrace AI sensors to improve efficiencies
Food waste is a nagging problem that weighs heavily on global food production, distribution and sales industries—but an emerging generation of AI sensors is providing a raft of fresh solutions. The embrace of AI in food industries ...
Science X / Universal aging clock predicts death risk across multiple mammalian species
What's common between rats, humans, dogs and dolphins? We are all mammals, and one day will be the last day of our lives. A multinational team of researchers have now given us a powerful molecular clock that, with the help ...
Medical Xpress / MMR vaccines provide long-lasting protection against measles transmission
Sustained herd immunity against measles in Finland suggests the measles-mumps-rubella, or MMR, vaccine provides long-term protection against onward measles transmission, according to a new study conducted by researchers at ...
Medical Xpress / Genetic trade-off between youth and longevity uncovered
A new study identifies vgll3 as a key gene that promotes rapid growth and early reproduction while increasing the risk of aging and cancer later in life. The findings provide rare experimental evidence for the theory that ...
Medical Xpress / Study offers new evidence on role of health crises in driving housing instability and homelessness
Major health events increase the risk of housing instability and homelessness among Medicaid enrollees, according to a new study at Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health. These findings shed new light on the ...
Phys.org / Studying impact flashes to detect missile and meteorite composition
Southwest Research Institute, or SwRI, is studying impact flashes generated by high-speed collisions. One application of understanding impact flashes is to remotely identify what materials are involved in the collisions. ...
Tech Xplore / Reusable cups made easy: What consumers really want
A new study from Taiwan combines consumer behavior research and life cycle assessment to design reusable cup systems that people are more willing to use. The findings show that convenience and incentives strongly shape participation, ...
Medical Xpress / Irradiation may help CAR-T cell therapy work better against solid tumors
Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have discovered a promising new way to improve CAR-T cell therapy for solid tumors such as lung cancer and melanoma. The study, published in Nature Cancer, found ...
Medical Xpress / Why drinking alcohol may make you reach for chips and pizza
Drinking alcohol may lead people to overconsume savory ultra-processed foods, according to new research from the University of Sydney's Charles Perkins Centre, with researchers suggesting this may contribute to excess energy ...
Phys.org / 'Genetic brakes' reveal how embryos shape their limbs
Canadian scientists have made a significant advance in understanding the mechanisms that enable embryos to properly form their limbs, thanks to new research led by Université de Montréal medical professor Marie Kmita at the ...
Tech Xplore / Two animal-inspired algorithms just changed how software-defined networks catch attacks before disruptions spread
Researchers have developed a new artificial intelligence-based system designed to improve cyberattack detection in software-defined networks (SDNs), a networking architecture widely used in data centers and enterprise systems.
