Female sweat bees need to make a pivotal life decision: remain in the nest to help their mother raise more offspring or leave to establish nests of their own. New research from the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute ...
Medical Xpress / Teens who struggle to log off social media could face increased ADHD symptoms over time
Social media has become as much a part of our daily lives as eating or sleeping. What started as a way for people to connect and share pictures has grown into a billion-dollar industry that shapes medical, political, and ...
Phys.org / Scientists uncover two new ways doxycycline disables bacterial ribosomes
Scientists have discovered two new mechanisms for how a well-established antibiotic works, paving the way for the potential development of new antibiotic treatments.
Phys.org / An atom-holography microscope for direct visualization of 3D atomic arrangements in nanoscale regions
A collaborative research group led by Hiroshi Daimon, a specially appointed research fellow at the Institute for Molecular Science, National Institutes of Natural Sciences, has developed an "atom-holography microscope" capable ...
Science X / Inside 530-million-year-old embryos, scientists uncover rare time-lapse of early animal growth
Think of a small fossil as the equivalent of a homemade video of prehistoric life. Fossils formed when sea organisms began their great proliferation more than half a billion years ago rarely contained anything but tough structures. ...
Phys.org / Connecting surface-level observations to molecular-level data uncovers plant stress coping mechanism
Unlike humans, plants cannot make simple lifestyle adjustments to adapt to changing environments. When exposed to conditions like extreme heat or water scarcity, instead of putting on sweaters or turning on air conditioners, ...
Tech Xplore / Recycling fossil fuel infrastructure could save trillions in societal costs
Moving away from oil and gas and toward solar, wind and hydropower: that is the energy transition. To stop global warming, we must shift our energy infrastructure toward renewable sources in the coming years. The large-scale ...
Medical Xpress / Dual immunotherapy shows promising activity in high-risk early-stage HER2-negative breast cancer
A combination of two immunotherapy drugs showed encouraging activity when added to standard chemotherapy given before surgery for patients with high-risk, early-stage HER2-negative breast cancer, according to Phase II clinical ...
Phys.org / Schools are rethinking whether every student needs a laptop
When the COVID-19 pandemic forced in-person classroom instruction to go virtual, students suddenly needed their own laptops or tablets to interact with teachers and complete assignments.
Medical Xpress / Inflammation may drive Dravet syndrome, offering a potential new treatment target
An overactive immune response in the brain may play a role in Dravet syndrome, a rare and severe genetic epilepsy that typically begins in infancy, according to Weill Cornell Medicine researchers. Children with the condition ...
Tech Xplore / What is a side‑channel attack? Computer scientist explains how computers can leak secrets without being hacked
When people hear the word cyberattack, they usually imagine someone guessing a password, planting malware, stealing a computer, hacking an organization's network or exploiting a flaw in software. A side-channel attack works ...
Phys.org / New research shows the Golgi complex is involved in DNA repair control
Our DNA is under constant threat. Chemicals, radiation and the everyday errors of cell division all damage it, and if left unrepaired, this can lead to diseases such as cancer. Cells invest heavily in finding and fixing these ...
