Medical Xpress / Researchers pinpoint genetic identifier in deadly cardiovascular disease
A University of Alberta research team has found a genetic variant that can be used to identify which patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension need the most urgent care. "This could potentially save lives and health-care ...
Medical Xpress / How T cells amplify signals: New study reveals key molecular switch
Signaling is fundamental to how cells sense and respond to their environment—but in immune cells, those signals must be precisely amplified to mount an effective defense against invasive threats. New research by immunologists ...
Phys.org / 'Morale boost': NASA carries out Moon mission during tough year for science
As the four Artemis astronauts approached a high point of their lunar mission—getting slung around the far side of the moon—NASA staffers crowded into Houston's famed mission control room Monday for a team photo.
Medical Xpress / Experienced therapists can give psychology students an extra boost
Clinical psychologists work closely with people who are struggling in order to prevent, assess and treat their mental health disorders. To this end, they need to be skilled at interacting with other people. A new study from ...

Phys.org / GMO pictures may reinforce existing views, deepening the divide of attitudes towards them
Images have long played a powerful role in shaping public perceptions of genetically modified organisms (GMOs), often reinforcing emotional reactions more than scientific understanding. A new experimental study published ...
Phys.org / Two's company: Scientists identify new class of star remnants
In about 5 to 8 billion years, our sun is expected to evolve into a white dwarf—an extremely dense, Earth-sized stellar remnant that has exhausted its fuel and shed its outer layer. But while our sun is a solitary star, research ...
Medical Xpress / New AI tool predicts whether aggressive small cell lung cancer will respond to treatment
Results of a new study conclude that a pathology tool powered by artificial intelligence can predict whether a patient with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer will respond to platinum-based chemotherapy—before treatment ...
Phys.org / A new crab is settling in the Mediterranean: Early evidence of establishment of a Lessepsian species in the Ionian Sea
The Mediterranean Sea is undergoing rapid ecological transformations driven by climate change and human-mediated species introductions. Among the most striking processes is the increasing arrival and establishment of non-indigenous ...
Medical Xpress / Public trust in AI in health care is slipping, survey finds
Artificial intelligence seems to be everywhere—in our jobs, in our homes and at the doctor's office. While the use of AI grows, a new survey commissioned by The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center finds fewer Americans ...
Phys.org / Current connection: Scientists detail how shifts in the Atlantic Ocean impacted the Alaskan climate 13,000 years ago
Some newly published findings from an Idaho State University professor and his colleagues point out how changes to currents an ocean away can impact climates on the other side of the globe. The new paper published in Nature ...
Phys.org / Review details photocatalyst–biocatalyst systems for semi-artificial photosynthesis
A new review from Osaka Metropolitan University (OMU) summarizes the biocatalysts involved in semi-artificial photosynthesis, an exciting research field that combines natural photosynthesis with artificial technology to efficiently ...
