Phys.org / 50-megapixel Earth models capture storms in unprecedented detail—but four consistent blind spots remain
Traditional global climate models were like early digital cameras—they had only about 10,000 pixels to cover the entire planet. At that low resolution, big storm systems looked like blurry blobs. You couldn't see their true ...
Phys.org / LiON: A fluorescent molecule tracks iron and oxygen levels in individual cells
A new fluorescent reporter capable of visualizing biologically active iron and oxygen inside living cells at single-cell resolution has been developed, as reported by researchers from Science Tokyo. Using this new tool, they ...
Phys.org / AI teaches asset traders not to sweat the small stuff
Financial markets are governed by a combination of rational and irrational forces, statistical probabilities and "animal spirits." It takes fluency in both to understand the market, let alone beat it. Yet market actors, including ...
Medical Xpress / Infant sleep movements reveal 60-minute cycles of inactivity that lengthen through first year
Infants' activity while sleeping is rhythmic, according to a new study from the University of Surrey. The findings provide crucial insight into sleep cycles of infants in the first year of life. In the largest study of its ...
Phys.org / Your body's secret sugar code could predict disease years before it strikes
Scientists have found that hidden health signals coating your cells could change medicine forever. The new study by Edith Cowan University (ECU) School of Medical and Health Sciences has shown sugar molecules in your body ...
Phys.org / Is 'gender gating' the secret to success in online dating?
Digital matching platforms—from professional networking to ride-sharing and accommodation services—add value by bringing supply and demand into balance. But deep-seated asymmetries can prove difficult to expunge, causing ...
Medical Xpress / The vaccines and treatments being developed for Ebola outbreak
There are no vaccines or treatments for the strain of Ebola that has killed more than 200 people in DR Congo and Uganda, but several are being urgently developed in the hope of reining in the outbreak.
Phys.org / Research reveals how parenting styles influence children's honesty
Parents who come down hard on their children for telling lies or misbehaving may believe they are teaching the child right from wrong. But new research by NUS suggests that overly strict or punitive parenting could be part ...
Phys.org / Q&A: Do high-pressure environments encourage moral disengagement?
Why do individuals and organizations sometimes rationalize decisions that conflict with their stated values? According to Leah P. Hollis, professor of education policy studies in the Penn State College of Education, the answer ...
Phys.org / AI system evaluates chemical spectra in minutes
A research team has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) system that proposes suitable molecular structures from the raw data of spectroscopic measurements and assesses their plausibility. The system is openly accessible ...
Phys.org / New method enables accurate sequencing of short peptides hidden in food and human body
Our food and our bodies are full of tiny protein fragments called peptides. These small chains of amino acids act as biological messengers, influencing processes ranging from sensory perception to physiological functions.
Medical Xpress / A new AI framework that can help doctors build better tools
Artificial intelligence can help predict a patient's risk for conditions such as sepsis, heart disease and cancer. But many of these tools fall short in real-life clinical practice because they are difficult for doctors to ...
