Phys.org / Sun simulations reveal how cool prominences survive in million-degree corona
At more than one million degrees, the sun's atmosphere—the corona—is incredibly hot; but not everywhere. Time and again, huge structures of significantly cooler solar plasma—about 10,000 degrees—appear within the corona. ...
Medical Xpress / AI could spot kidney disease earlier and predict decline before symptoms appear
Kidney diseases develop slowly and may not produce any obvious symptoms for a long time. The body can compensate for them so effectively that the patient remains unaware of the problem for years. It is only in more advanced ...
Phys.org / Chalk-stream salmon could become an official sub-species
Chalk-stream salmon should be officially classified as a sub-species, new research suggests. Scientists from the University of Exeter and INRAe (France) carried out detailed genetic testing of salmon from 42 rivers in England, ...
Medical Xpress / Catching cancer's earliest moments: How mutated cells transform their local environment so a tumor can develop
Scientists at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) and their colleagues are shedding new light on a tumor's earliest moments—revealing how lung cells with cancer-causing mutations recruit accomplices from healthy ...
Medical Xpress / Calcium surges in brain immune cells may switch anxiety on and off
Researchers had previously discovered a population of immune cells within the brain that can act as accelerators and brakes for anxiety in mice. Now, new research from the lab of Mario Capecchi, Ph.D., professor of human ...
Tech Xplore / AI model predicts human attention in 360-degree videos using both sound and vision
Virtual reality (VR) experiences and 360-degree videos are transforming viewers from passive observers into active participants immersed within a scene. Yet this shift raises an important question: Where do people direct ...
Phys.org / Seeing is believing: Smart probes reveal proteins inside living cells with unprecedented clarity
Fluorescent probes have transformed modern biology by allowing researchers to tag and visualize individual molecules in living cells, tissues, and animals. Using these tools, researchers can watch viruses infect cells in ...
Tech Xplore / This simple solar cell manufacturing tweak could solve perovskites' biggest weakness
A technique that improves the performance and stability of next-generation solar cells—without adding any chemicals or coatings—has been demonstrated by researchers from Korea University and the University of Surrey.
Phys.org / Pure mycelium shoe debuts in Milan with a load-bearing fungal sole
A prototype shoe made entirely from pure mycelium, the root-like network of fungi, will debut at Milan Design Week. The project is a collaboration between researcher and designer Lars Dittrich of Vrije Universiteit Brussel ...
Medical Xpress / Maternal dairy intake consistent with recommendations linked to lower levels of specific human milk lipids
Results from a pilot study of 100 exclusively breastfeeding women suggest that maternal dairy intake is associated with decreased concentrations of numerous human milk lipids. Findings from the study will be presented at ...
Medical Xpress / Ultra-processed foods damage your focus even if you eat healthily
New research from Monash University, the University of São Paulo and Deakin University shows that a diet high in heavily processed foods can negatively impact the brain's ability to focus and increases the risk of developing ...
Medical Xpress / Results from COSMOS trial reveals more than 75% of older adults have used complementary therapies
A new study by investigators from Mass General Brigham suggests that complementary health approaches (CHA)—including massage, yoga, tai chi, herbal products, acupuncture, spiritual practices, cannabis and psychedelics—are ...
