Phys.org / Snowflake-like emergence phenomenon discovered in metal nanocrystals
Whether they're tickling your nose, hugging your eyelashes or melting on your tongue, few winter wonders are as fascinating as snowflakes.
Phys.org / Ultrasonic sensor capable enables cuffless, non-invasive blood pressure measurement
A new technology has been developed that enables cuffless noninvasive blood pressure monitoring by using ultrasonic to track real-time changes in vascular diameter—without the need for a traditional cuff. The technology ...
Medical Xpress / First map of nerve circuitry in bone helps physicians identify key signals for bone repair
When a house catches on fire, we assume that a smoke alarm inside will serve one purpose and one purpose only: warn the occupants of danger. But imagine if the device could transform into something that could fight the fire ...
Medical Xpress / Post-stroke injection protects the brain in preclinical study
When a person suffers a stroke, physicians must restore blood flow to the brain as quickly as possible to save their life. But, ironically, that life-saving rush of blood can also trigger a second wave of damage—killing ...
Phys.org / Global data gaps highlight why citizen science has now become essential for official statistics
For more than three decades, DHS provided vital demographic and health data on population, health, HIV, and nutrition in over 90 countries. Its termination leaves major gaps in tracking the UN Sustainable Development Goals ...
Medical Xpress / Facial expressions decoded: Brain regions work together in surprising new ways
When a baby smiles at you, it's almost impossible not to smile back. This spontaneous reaction to a facial expression is part of the back-and-forth that allows us to understand each other's emotions and mental states.
Phys.org / Nature-inspired computers are shockingly good at math
Neuromorphic computers, inspired by the architecture of the human brain, are proving surprisingly adept at solving complex mathematical problems that underpin scientific and engineering challenges.
Phys.org / Early hominins from Morocco reveal an African lineage near the root of Homo sapiens
An international research team reports the analysis of new hominin fossils from the site of Thomas Quarry I (Casablanca, Morocco). The fossils are very securely dated to 773,000 +/- 4,000 years ago, thanks to a high-resolution ...
Tech Xplore / Brew, smell, and serve: AI steals the show at CES 2026
AI took over CES 2026, powering coffee machines to brew the perfect espresso, a device to create your perfect scent, and ball-hitting tennis robots that make you forget it's human against machine.
Phys.org / What does 'everyday' peace look like? Mapping how people think about peacebuilding
A new study led by Yale anthropologist Catherine Panter-Brick examines how stakeholders in socially diverse, conflict-affected societies conceptualize everyday peace, drawing on a comparative analysis across different groups ...
Medical Xpress / How a rare genetic variant protects some people from developing blood cancers
Blood cancer is an umbrella term for a variety of diseases that affect the blood, bone marrow and lymphatic system. Like most cancers, the cause is usually mutations in the DNA, which are genetic errors that accumulate as ...
Phys.org / Solar physicists discover long-hidden source of gamma rays unleashed by flares
Solar physicists say they have found a key source of intense gamma rays unleashed when Earth's nearest star produces its most violent eruptions.
