Medical Xpress / AI brain successfully mimics dyslexia and spots fonts that improve reading
For the first time, researchers have used an advanced AI model that understands both images and language, allowing them to model dyslexia, paving the way for potential new treatments. Dyslexia, the world's most common learning ...
Phys.org / Mind the gap! The semiconductor industry is relying on the wrong materials
2D materials are widely seen as a promising path toward better computer chips. Researchers at TU Wien have now shown that some of these materials are unsuitable due to an underestimated effect. But there are alternatives.
Phys.org / Comparable vitamin B6 levels found between nonalcoholic and conventional beers
Beer is one of the oldest and most consumed beverages on Earth, typically associated with social and celebratory settings. But researchers are curious about what vitamins and minerals are present in the beverage. A study ...

In his time spent in the lush canopies of Costa Rica's cloud forest, UConn Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Ph.D. student Jeremy Quirós-Navarro has worked as an arborist, helped place camera traps, collected ...
Tech Xplore / This featherweight elastic suit could transform everyday movement in ways most people would never expect
A team of Korean researchers has developed a lightweight elastic suit that can support the activities of various groups experiencing physical burdens in daily life, raising expectations.
Medical Xpress / How the adult brain reuses an embryonic signal to balance persistence and change
A signaling pathway best known for shaping the brain before birth also helps govern how adults learn, adapt, and persist in their behavior, according to new research co-led by Andreas H. Kottmann, associate medical professor ...
Phys.org / The edge of the Milky Way's star-forming disk revealed
How far the Milky Way's disk extends has long been difficult to define—it doesn't end sharply, but fades away gradually at its outer edges. Now, for the first time, an international team of astronomers has identified the ...

Pickleball-related eye injuries are on the rise in the United States, according to a study published in the journal Eye and led by Houston Methodist. The findings underscore a public health concern tied to one of America's ...
Phys.org / Cheaper sequencing, bigger payoff: New software could bring advanced metagenomics to more labs
Metagenomics relies on the use of software programs called assemblers, which can reconstruct tens of thousands of individual microbial genomes from DNA sequencing of samples such as soil, bodily fluids, or clinical swabs ...
Medical Xpress / Why ancestry matters in the cardiac screening of elite soccer players
Elite footballers of Black ethnicity show important ancestry-related differences in cardiac adaptation. These results were presented at ESC Preventive Cardiology 2026, the annual congress of the European Association of Preventive ...
Medical Xpress / Brain support cells form a previously unknown network
Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, according to a new study in mice. These pathways appear to connect distant regions in ways that had not been mapped before. ...
