Phys.org / Oceanic regime shifts affect subarctic moth communities—impacts divide species into winners and losers
Regime shifts in the Atlantic Ocean, which have subsequently affected the Baltic Sea, are also impacting moths in Lapland, according to a new study conducted at the University of Turku in Finland. The paper is published in ...
Phys.org / No single path makes youth champions, review of 60 sports analyses shows
How do you create the top athletes of the future? A large-scale study by researchers from the VUB's SPLISS research group shows that there is no ready-made recipe. The road to the podium is non-linear and requires a holistic ...
Phys.org / Is my brain wired to never see a ghost? A psychologist on three factors that make a paranormal experience more likely
Around 1 in 5 Americans say they've seen a ghost. I'm not one of them, and I probably never will be. I blame my brain.
Phys.org / Tiny on-chip circuit could power next-generation quantum and AI technologies
Researchers from Monash University have developed a breakthrough nanoscale circuit that can generate, direct, and read light-based information, all on a single chip.
Medical Xpress / Extreme trait values may trace to rare genes with outsized effects, analysis suggests
Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have found evidence that people who fall at the extreme high or low ends of certain traits, such as cholesterol, blood glucose, height, and age at menopause, are ...
Phys.org / Artists reconstruct extinct Sri Lankan megafauna
For animator and academic Dr. Jason Kennedy, palaeoart isn't just a hobby. Creating 3D images of prehistoric animals sits at the intersection of science and art, combining fossil analysis, comparisons with living species, ...
Phys.org / From pore chemistry to carbon capture, new COFs push beyond membrane performance limits
Carbon dioxide (CO2) separation is central to technologies ranging from natural gas purification to hydrogen production and carbon management. One widely used approach relies on thin filtering materials called membranes. ...
Phys.org / Data-driven model captures dynamics of turbulence at scale
Whether the dust borne on the violent winds of a tornado or the sugar grains in a swirled cup of coffee, the behavior of particles carried along in turbulence is subject to some similarities—all of them difficult to predict ...
Medical Xpress / Alzheimer's-linked protein found to shape long-term memories
New research has uncovered how a protein strongly linked to Alzheimer's disease plays a critical role in forming long-lasting memories—opening up new directions for future dementia treatments.
Phys.org / The 700-million-year history of our blood cells
Almost all animal species—including humans—have blood cells, but between different species our blood tells different stories. The lineage and components of blood cells vary widely, and this variety is a testament to how animals ...
Medical Xpress / AI-powered atlas reveals new insights into tertiary lymphoid structures as prognostic and response biomarkers in cancer
In a study published in Science, researchers from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have developed a spatial atlas of specialized immune structures, called tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs), across multiple ...
Phys.org / Mysterious acids keep bacteria rod-shaped by restraining rogue enzyme, experiments reveal
Researchers have discovered how acids on the surface of bacteria give these microscopic organisms their characteristic "rod" shape—by keeping an enzyme at bay that would otherwise turn the cylindrical cells into shape-shifting ...
