Medical Xpress / The best medicine may be free: What a daily dose of nature does for the body
A growing body of scientific evidence confirms what many of us know innately—spending time in nature is good for us. It not only lowers stress and depression, it strengthens immunity, boosts cognitive performance, promotes ...
Phys.org / New thermodynamic framework explains pressure and edge currents in spinning active particles
Physicists from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU), the Technical University of Darmstadt, Sapienza University in Rome and the University of Camerino (both in Italy) have calculated the fundamental laws of thermodynamics ...
Medical Xpress / Cumulative fatigue emerges as top predictor of women's soccer injuries
An international team of researchers led by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) and the University of Bonn—with participation from the Barça Innovation Hub (BIHUB), FC Barcelona's medical department and the ...
Phys.org / Why and how birdsong differs across the world—and the eight motifs that tie them together
Birdsong carries meaning across open space, helping birds attract mates, defend territory and communicate with rivals. While there has been much research into the use of birdsong across species, researchers have lacked a ...
Tech Xplore / Reconfigurable AI device preserves long-term memory while acoustic waves reset short-term signals
A research team led by professor Il Jeon of the Department of Nano Engineering and the Sungkyunkwan Advanced Institute of Nanotechnology (SAINT) at Sungkyunkwan University, including Dr. Sihyeok Kim and Dr. Jang Woo Lee, ...
Medical Xpress / Will dietary fiber help digestion? It might depend on your gut bacteria
Doctors recommend dietary fiber for healthy digestion, but to benefit from it, people not only need specific species of gut bacteria but also the right strains of those bacteria to process the starches, according to a new ...
Phys.org / AI-powered camera system offers low-cost way to monitor bumblebees, potentially other insects
Researchers have developed a low-cost, semi-automated, AI-driven method that uses remote cameras to survey bumblebees and potentially other insects. The new tool could have important implications for efforts to conserve declining ...
