Phys.org / Twisted stacking lets 2D conductor keep single-layer performance in bulk form
Two-dimensional (2D) materials, which are significantly thinner than a single sheet of paper, have long drawn attention for their exceptional performance. However, they have faced a critical limitation: Their performance ...
Medical Xpress / Key protein behind chemotherapy resistance in colorectal cancer identified
One of the most widely used chemotherapeutic agents for colorectal cancer is 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), a cornerstone treatment that has improved outcomes for countless patients. However, repeated treatment often leads to drug ...
Medical Xpress / Metabolic switch in lung cancer reprograms immune cells to slow tumors
An international research team, led by Justus Liebig University Giessen (JLU), the Institute for Lung Health (ILH) in Giessen, and the Max Planck Institute for Heart and Lung Research in Bad Nauheim, has identified a promising ...
Medical Xpress / Vaping e-cigarettes leads to early signs of lung disease in young adults
A product that was introduced as a safer alternative to smoking is causing lung and cardiovascular damage in young adults, according to new University of Alberta research published today.
Phys.org / Real-time data assimilation system outperforms flood early warning system
Researchers at the Institute of Industrial Science, the University of Tokyo (UTokyo-IIS), have developed a real-time data assimilation system that substantially improves streamflow and flood forecasting accuracy across Japan. ...
Phys.org / Research uncovers novel electronic properties in quantum material
Florida State University physicists are part of a team that has discovered unusual superconducting states in parts of graphene, with the potential to drive unexpected quantum technologies.
Phys.org / How wax moth larvae can help reduce animal testing in research
Researchers at the Helmholtz Institute for One Health (HIOH) have demonstrated that larvae of the greater wax moth, Galleria mellonella, are suitable as an alternative infection model for investigating the pathogenicity of ...
Phys.org / New research maps music and chanting at soccer matches
Music and singing in soccer stadiums are not random entertainment. They follow clear patterns. And those patterns vary systematically from country to country.
Medical Xpress / Study shows US tobacco firms used cigarette-selling tactics to globally market ultra-processed foods
A new study from the University of Kansas details how U.S. tobacco corporations expanded into global food markets from the mid-1980s to the mid-2000s, using strategies honed through cigarette sales to market ultra-processed ...
Tech Xplore / Robotic arm inspired by octopus uses tactile sensors in suction cups for autonomous underwater grasping
The oceans hide some of the most sophisticated solutions nature has ever developed and are an inexhaustible source of inspiration for the robotics of the future. The Bioinspired Soft Robotics research unit, coordinated by ...
Phys.org / Magnon momentum microscopy: A new window into nanoscale spin-wave physics
An international team led by the Max Born Institute has developed a new type of momentum microscopy to image magnons—the quanta of collectively excited spins—directly in two-dimensional reciprocal space using soft X-rays. ...
Medical Xpress / Left-handed DNA tubes double cancer drug killing by boosting cell uptake
Researchers in the lab of Cancer Center at Illinois (CCIL) member Xing Wang have discovered the influential role of structural chirality, or "handedness," of a DNA nanostructure to dictate cancer cell response to targeted ...
