Phys.org / Decades of deep sea mining research show threat to seafloor creatures
There's increasing interest in deep-sea mining, but the impacts that this will have on the animals that live in the depths isn't fully understood. A new review led by our scientists is giving us our first insight into how ...
Phys.org / Selling yourself short: New research shows how sexualized dating profiles can undermine long-term appeal
New research led by Prof. Gurit Birnbaum, a researcher of sexuality in close relationships at Reichman University's Baruch Ivcher School of Psychology, and conducted in collaboration with her graduate student Kobi Zholtack ...
Medical Xpress / Even silent tissue reactions can shape long-term breast implant outcomes
A new study suggests that breast implant complications are often not just mechanical events, but may be linked to slow biological changes in the surrounding (peri-implant) tissue over time. Researchers have found that microbial ...
Phys.org / Greener process recovers over 96% of rare earths from permanent magnets
Researchers from the University of Jyväskylä, Finland, have developed a solid-phase extraction process that enables the eco-friendly recovery of critical raw materials from NdFeB magnets. The developed method utilizes organic ...
Phys.org / Super transformer aims to bring order to biology's data under one AI model
Modern biology is awash in data. Scientists can sequence DNA, track gene activity cell-by-cell, map proteins in space, and image tissues at microscopic resolution. However, it is a struggle to put all that information together ...
Tech Xplore / 3D-printed interlocking electrodes demonstrate optimization potential for energy storage
Good electrochemical energy storage (EES) devices such as rechargeable batteries and supercapacitors can store a lot of energy and release it quickly, but these design goals are often at odds with each other. Using design ...
Phys.org / Evolution has reused the same genes for 120 million years, study shows
Scientists have shown that evolution has been using the same genetic "cheat sheet" for over 120 million years, suggesting that life on Earth may be more predictable than first imagined. The international team, led by scientists ...
Phys.org / An experiment shows that yellow trout can grow larger than the wild strain
An experiment conducted in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, has concluded that yellow trout can grow larger than the wild strain, which is the most commonly farmed phenotype of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). The yellow, ...
Medical Xpress / HHS' healthy food agenda puts hospitals on notice about patients' meals
Complaints about hospital food are certainly not new, and Jell-O and fruit juice are often the butt of related jokes. But the Trump administration has recently upped the ante.
Medical Xpress / Certain migraine prevention drugs associated with reduced risk of glaucoma
A type of drug used to prevent migraine may be associated with a reduced risk of glaucoma, according to a study published in Neurology. The study compared 36,822 people who took calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) inhibitor ...
Medical Xpress / How physical activity is linked to well-being in daily life
Movement is good for us, as we all know. But many people do not engage in enough physical activity in their daily lives. Because knowledge of the positive effects of movement is clearly not sufficient to induce changes in ...
Phys.org / Symmetry says these crystal vibrations can never mix, but an exotic quantum phase rewrites the rules
Symmetry is one of the most fundamental principles in nature. It describes the rules that make an object look unchanged after a rotation, reflection, or other transformations. In materials, symmetry governs how atoms and ...
