Phys.org / Seaweed study unlocks surprising solution for cattle nutrition and sustainable agriculture
Cows eat grass...everyone knows that. But climate change is forcing producers and scientists to rethink some of our long-held assumptions about livestock nutrition. Crop costs are climbing. Traditional pastures are under ...
Medical Xpress / Gut bacteria linked to immunotherapy success in melanoma patients
Researchers at The George Washington University, working with Weill Cornell Medicine, have identified specific gut bacteria linked to better responses to cancer immunotherapy in patients with advanced melanoma. The study ...
Phys.org / A physicist's fresh look at the 'prisoner's dilemma' reveals hope for cooperation
The "prisoner's dilemma" is one of the most famous ideas in game theory. For decades, this game has been used to explain why selfishness often beats cooperation. In the prisoner's dilemma, two players can either cooperate ...
Phys.org / Polarized elections do not erode support for the basic principles of democracy, study suggests
The health of liberal democracies has been the focus of interest for political science for some time, against a global backdrop marked by the rise of political polarization and tense incidents like those that took place in ...
Tech Xplore / These brick walls are built to come apart, move, and rise again after demolition
The construction sector still has some way to go in terms of reducing the consumption of resources and greenhouse gas emissions. One of these relates to the construction waste produced during the demolition of buildings. ...
Medical Xpress / Sudden cardiac arrest: Genetic cause more common in younger people than in older people
Younger people who experience sudden cardiac arrest are more likely to have a genetic cause than older people who experience it, according to the Smidt Heart Institute at Cedars-Sinai. The study, published in JACC: Clinical ...
Medical Xpress / Survey highlights persistent uncertainty on STI vaccines
While data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that the total number of U.S. cases of three sexually transmitted infections (STIs) declined from 2022-24, infection rates remain 13% higher than a ...
Phys.org / The worst climate future is less likely, but the best one is slipping away, scientists say
Scientists are jettisoning their worst and best case scenarios for a warming world as no longer plausible. That shows how modest gains in the fight to curb climate change have dialed back the most catastrophic of future heating ...
Phys.org / Neanderthals gathered shellfish using the same strategies as modern humans, study finds
Neanderthal populations in southern Europe collected shellfish throughout the year, with a marked preference for the colder months, according to a new international study led by researchers from the Institute of Environmental ...
Phys.org / Bioengineers condense protein engineering and testing to a single day
Proteins are critical to life—and to industry. There are countless proteins that could be engineered to treat and even cure serious diseases and cellular dysfunctions. Industrial applications are similarly promising, with ...
Phys.org / Neuron imaging captures unconventional receptor route that supports synaptic communication
All cells, whether big or small, short or long, rely on proteins to function properly. In most cells, transporting these proteins is relatively simple. Neurons in the brain, however, face a significant logistical challenge ...
Phys.org / SpaceX is about to go public. Here's how it works
