Phys.org / New map reveals a rugged world beneath the Antarctic ice sheet
Scientists have discovered there is more to Antarctica than meets the eye. A new map of the landscape beneath the frozen continent's ice sheet has revealed a previously hidden world of mountains, deep canyons and rugged hills ...
Phys.org / New roadmap outlines strategies to reduce pharmaceutical pollution in waterways
Pharmaceuticals used in health care provide huge health and economic benefits to society, but are now found extensively as pollutants across global waterways.
Phys.org / Mercury's BepiColombo Mio and Earth's GEOTAIL show shared wave frequency properties across planetary magnetospheres
An international team from Kanazawa University (Japan), Tohoku University (Japan), LPP (France), and partners has demonstrated that chorus emissions, natural electromagnetic waves long studied in Earth's magnetosphere, also ...
Medical Xpress / Brazilian research reveals how some types of breast cancer 'evade' treatment
Brazilian researchers have identified previously unknown forms of a protein linked to breast cancer. The discovery contributes to our understanding of variability in responses to treatment, even with the most advanced therapies.
Medical Xpress / Fremanezumab reduces number of migraine days in children, teens
Fremanezumab yields a greater reduction in the number of migraine days and headache days than placebo among children and adolescents with episodic migraine, according to a study published in the Jan. 15 issue of the New England ...
Phys.org / AI cannot automate science: A philosopher explains the uniquely human aspects of doing research
Consistent with the general trend of incorporating artificial intelligence into nearly every field, researchers and politicians are increasingly using AI models trained on scientific data to infer answers to scientific questions. ...
Medical Xpress / Machine learning identifies factors that may determine the age of onset of Huntington's disease
A team from the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences and the Institute of Neurosciences at the University of Barcelona (UBneuro) has applied advanced artificial intelligence techniques to better understand why Huntington's ...
Medical Xpress / Inflammatory pathway reveals targetable weakness in hard-to-treat blood cancer
New research co-led by Indiana University School of Medicine scientists has exposed a vulnerability in acute myeloid leukemia by identifying the blood cancer's reliance on a specific signaling pathway involved in the body's ...
Medical Xpress / Multiple unexpected chemical contaminants exist in human milk, though at low concentrations
An interdisciplinary team including researchers at McGill University has found a range of unexpected chemical contaminants in human milk samples from Canada and South Africa. The chemicals include traces of pesticides, antimicrobials ...
Medical Xpress / Q&A: Vicious cycle? How gum disease and rheumatoid arthritis feed off one another
It's well established that gum disease and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are strongly linked. But what wasn't known, until a recent study, was that the two churn through a vicious cycle, feeding off each other and triggering ...
Phys.org / MOSAIC platform compiles chemistry protocols for faster drug design
Speeding up drug discovery in the age of AI may come down to a concept that's comfortingly old-fashioned: Consulting a chemistry recipe book.
Phys.org / Global inequality in parks undercuts the 'suburban dream,' suggests research
Huge inequality between inner-city and suburban parks across the world could be threatening well-being globally, suggests a study from King's College London and Nokia Bell Labs.
