Medical Xpress / Five key blood proteins may reveal hidden danger of early death
Elevated levels of five proteins in our blood can help predict risk of mortality, a new study from the University of Surrey finds. Scientists believe the proteins (PLAUR, SERPINA3, CRIM1, DDR1 and LTBP2), that play key roles ...
Medical Xpress / Sequencing method can analyze millions of T cells at a fraction of the cost
Studying T cells, the immune cells most responsible for responding to infections and cancers, just received a significant boost in the form of a new technique from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. While T-cell analysis ...
Phys.org / COVID vaccine tech could limit snakebite venom damage
The same technology used in COVID-19 vaccines could help prevent muscle damage from snakebites, according to a study published in Trends in Biotechnology.
Phys.org / Dusty star-forming galaxy at high redshift discovered
An international team of astronomers reports the discovery of a new dusty star-forming galaxy at high redshift. The newfound galaxy, designated AC-2168, was detected using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array ...
Phys.org / Researchers uncover the source of widespread 'forever chemical' contamination in North Carolina
An environmental chemistry laboratory at Duke University has solved a longstanding mystery of the origin of high levels of PFAS—so-called "forever chemicals"—contaminating water sources in the Piedmont region of North ...
Phys.org / Scientists track recent solar flare disruptions in Earth's ionosphere
As this month's string of powerful X-class solar flares sparked brilliant auroras that lit up skies across an unusually wide swath of the globe—from northern Europe to Florida—researchers at NJIT's Center for Solar-Terrestrial ...
Phys.org / LHAASO conducts all-sky search for exploding primordial black holes
Primordial black holes (PBHs) are black holes theorized to have formed shortly after the Big Bang. Compared to black holes emerging from collapsing stars, PBHs could have very different masses, ranging from very small to ...
Phys.org / Tiny copepod reveals that gene location influences natural selection
A new study by researchers at the University of Wisconsin–Madison provides the first empirical evidence connecting the chromosomal location of genes to natural selection, indicating the arrangement of genes can influence ...
Medical Xpress / Nighttime phone use linked to higher levels of suicidal thoughts in high-risk adults
Patterns of smartphone use and their impact on mental health are being extensively studied due to the growing dependence of the device in people's lives.
Phys.org / Personalized social robots can boost children's reading confidence and engagement
Social robots can be a non-threatening way for children to improve their reading skills, researchers say.
Tech Xplore / Strategic maintenance could double Öresund Bridge lifespan to 200 years
Researchers at Lund University have developed a new framework that can lead to the Öresund Link, thanks to the right maintenance at the right time and smart monitoring, having a total lifespan of 200 years. This is twice ...
Phys.org / Richest Iron Age burial assemblage in Southern Levant discovered at Horvat Tevet
A recent study by Dr. Omer Peleg and his colleagues examined the unique 7th-century BCE (Iron IIC) cremation burial assemblage discovered at Horvat Tevet. The assemblage is the richest and most diverse burial assemblage found ...
