Phys.org / Researchers decode the chemistry behind a deadly genetic disorder
Northeastern University researchers used an original machine learning tool to predict how genetic mutations cause a rare metabolic disease known as OTC deficiency, uncovering some underlying biochemical mechanisms at play ...
Tech Xplore / New modeling approach predicts errors in quantum computers before they occur
You've just put a dollar into a machine to play a song and it stopped playing after a few seconds. You put in another dollar and the tune stops after a minute. You can't get your dollars back and can't listen to the song ...
Medical Xpress / Rare genetic variants can increase ADHD risk by up to 15 times
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder with a high heritability, in which the genetic component consists of thousands of genetic variants. Most variants only slightly increase the likelihood of receiving the diagnosis. Now ...
Phys.org / From artificial organs to advanced batteries: A breakthrough 3D-printable polymer
A new type of 3D-printable material that gets along with the body's immune system, pioneered by a University of Virginia research team, could lead to safer medical technology for organ transplants and drug delivery systems. ...
Medical Xpress / Researchers use 3D bioprinted tumor models to transform cancer treatment
In associate professor Mauro Tambasco's lab, researchers at all levels work together to develop innovative approaches to fighting cancer.
Medical Xpress / 3D-printed blood vessels could unravel secrets of strokes
3D printed blood vessels on glass that mimic blood vessel anatomy and the fluid dynamics of blood flow could be an invaluable tool in studying the causes of stroke, new research from a University of Sydney team has found ...
Tech Xplore / Seismic data can identify aircraft by type
Instruments typically used to detect the ground motion of earthquakes can also be used to identify the type of aircraft flying far overhead, research by University of Alaska Fairbanks scientists shows. That's because aircraft ...
Phys.org / Balloon telescope captures new details of matter swirling around black holes
An international collaboration of physicists including researchers at Washington University in St. Louis has made measurements to better understand how matter falls into black holes and how enormous amounts of energy and ...
Phys.org / People in isolated cities in Africa suffer more violence against civilians, study reveals
Cities are often seen as hotspots of violence, with the assumption that larger cities are inherently more violent than smaller ones. This "universal law" of urban scaling has long shaped scientific thinking. But new research ...
Phys.org / Earth's earliest life 3.3 billion years ago revealed by faint biosignatures
A new study uncovered fresh chemical evidence of life in rocks more than 3.3 billion years old, along with molecular traces showing that oxygen-producing photosynthesis emerged nearly a billion years earlier than previously ...
Medical Xpress / Global rise in ultra-processed foods poses major public health threat, experts warn
The increase of UPFs in diets worldwide presents an urgent challenge to health that demands coordinated policies and advocacy action to address, says a new three-paper Series authored by 43 global experts and published in ...
Medical Xpress / Gene 'switch' reverses Alzheimer's risk in experimental model
University of Kentucky researchers have developed a new experimental model that could point the way toward more effective Alzheimer's disease treatments by targeting one of the brain's most important genes for risk and resilience.
