Phys.org / Why India stopped mourning its dead daughters: Research reveals hidden structures behind dowry's deadly silence
New research from King's College London published in Public Culture has found that the uneven unfolding of a post-independence law designed to free Indian women from the constraints of Hindu kinship inadvertently created ...
Medical Xpress / Hidden pocket reveals new way to target prostate cancer's 'undruggable' ERG protein
In the United States, prostate cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related disease and death in men. About half of prostate cancer cases in patients of European ancestry have a gene rearrangement in which the genes TMPRSS2 ...
Medical Xpress / New platform combines precision gene targeting with brain-wide delivery
A new study describes a gene therapy strategy that uses the brain's own glymphatic transport system to distribute engineered viral vectors throughout the brain. The approach addresses two major challenges in neurological ...
Medical Xpress / Both synthetic and organic tampons found to leach hormone-disrupting chemicals, study shows
A study has found some tampons leach low levels of chemicals that disrupt hormones, regardless of whether they are synthetic or organic.
Phys.org / Where rivers face collapse: New tool shows where conservation dollars can do most good
Freshwater ecosystems are under growing pressure worldwide, but conservation resources are limited. A framework developed by IIASA researchers and partners can help identify where conservation could prevent biodiversity loss ...
Phys.org / El Nino powers up as forecasters predict historic strength and a rainier winter for the US South
An intensifying El Niño, nature's heat-releasing thermostat that spikes global temperatures, is heading to historically strong levels, the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said Thursday.
Phys.org / Q&A: How camera-equipped homing pigeons could improve robotic vision in flight
Contrary to common assumptions, pigeons do not lock their eyes in place during flight. Instead, they make slow, subtle eye movements that may help them gather more information about their surroundings.
Phys.org / Massive calving episode in Greenland may foreshadow more rapid ice sheet loss
In November 2025, a study led by Adrien Wehrlé, a researcher in the Department of Geography at the University of Zürich, Switzerland, looked at the massive calving response of one of West Greenland's active glaciers, Sermeq ...
Phys.org / What if our homes could move?
Imagine living in a home that you could simply pick up and move when extreme weather strikes. Instead of bricks and mortar, it's made from materials sourced from the local environment and, if weather conditions change, you ...
Phys.org / Researchers recreate a lost Ming Dynasty goldworking technique to make replica royal jewelry
Chinese goldsmiths working during the Ming Dynasty were masters of their craft, capable of creating intricate and elaborate jewelry pieces. The evidence is there in the abundance of finds in royal and noble tombs across Hubei ...
Phys.org / Magnetic octupole model captures domain-wall motion in noncollinear antiferromagnets
Researchers from The Grainger College of Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have developed the first magnetic multipole-based micromagnetic model for antiferromagnets. Published in Applied Physics ...
Tech Xplore / Model reveals grid battery wear after 500 to 1,000 cycles in days
Energy storage is becoming critical to grid resilience and electricity affordability because battery systems can help balance supply and demand and stabilize power.
