Phys.org / When bad luck isn't random: Understanding 'zemblanity'
In 2025, associate professor Christian Busch's Palisades home burned down in one of the most destructive wildfires in Los Angeles history. Busch says the disaster wasn't blind bad luck; it was a clear case of "zemblanity," ...
Medical Xpress / Certain DNA signatures may reveal which prostate cancers are most likely to spread
Prostate cancer is the second most common form of cancer among men globally. Yet, we still know relatively little about why the disease develops or why some men live with it for years while it progresses aggressively in others.
Phys.org / Pumping antibiotics out: A new route to bacterial drug resistance
Bacteria can survive antibiotics in several ways, including by pumping the drugs out of their cells before they can take effect. Researchers at the University of Osaka have discovered a previously unknown mechanism that allows ...
Medical Xpress / Ancient viral remnants in our genome may help predict response to chemotherapy
In a new study, researchers from King's College London trained AI models on multiple types of clinical and biological data to determine whether they could predict which patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) would respond ...
Medical Xpress / West Nile virus more than 10 times higher in South Carolina compared to national average
With little historical data on the prevalence of West Nile virus in South Carolina, members of the Delores Marie Thomas Research Lab have assessed its presence in the Palmetto State. Led by associate professor of epidemiology ...
Phys.org / Interstellar visitor 3I/ATLAS carries clues from the frozen outskirts of another star system
UK astronomers have uncovered new clues about the origin of 3I/ATLAS—only the third known object from beyond the solar system ever spotted. In a new paper published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, researchers ...
Tech Xplore / Q&A: Researcher calls for independent testing of powerful AI models
For Nicolas Papernot, the secret to strengthening cybersecurity in the age of AI is transparency—sharing information about threats and allowing researchers to probe these systems before attackers do.
Phys.org / Local microbes persist in wine despite commercial yeast
A new study has demonstrated that regional microbial imprints can remain detectable under commercial winemaking conditions. The research, appearing in Applied and Environmental Microbiology, shows that inoculated fermentations ...
Phys.org / August hottest month ever recorded globally as huge El Niño emerges
Europe's climate monitor said Thursday that August was the hottest month ever recorded around the world and warned of worse to come as an unprecedented El Niño pattern grows stronger.
Phys.org / More than numbers: First global dataset shows who is immigrating
As countries compete for skilled workers and grapple with aging populations and labor shortages, understanding who is moving across borders is increasingly important. A new study provides the first global data set of immigration ...
Phys.org / Timing 1080 drops to prevent predators bouncing back
While aerial 1080 drops sharply reduce numbers of rats and stoats, the predators—especially ship rats—can rebound to higher numbers within a few years. Studying 24 years of small-mammal tracking records across New Zealand's ...
Phys.org / Super-resolution imaging reveals details inside living cells
A new fluorescence microscopy technique that generates super-resolution images from a single camera exposure could help researchers study rapid movements within cells that are difficult to capture with existing methods.
