Medical Xpress / Rejuvenating neurons restores learning and memory in mice
Age-related memory decline and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's are often thought of as irreversible. But the brain is not static; neurons continually adjust the strength of their connections, a property called ...
Medical Xpress / Colorectal cancer is rising in younger adults. Here's who is most at risk and symptoms to watch for
Colorectal cancer is a threat not just to older adults but increasingly to young men and women, too. It's now the top cancer killer of Americans younger than 50.
Medical Xpress / In Cordoba, the grass pollen season has grown longer over the last 23 years
A study analyzes the relationship between pollen and meteorological data spanning 23 years, verifying how the wind impacts each phase of the pollen season differently, thereby helping to manage and prevent allergy seasons. ...
Phys.org / Antarctic magnetic anomaly is a trace of an ancient continental collision, scientists find
Geologists from St. Petersburg State University, as part of an international scientific team, have analyzed rock data from East Antarctica and determined that the magnetic anomaly in this region resulted from the convergence ...
Phys.org / EPA revokes scientific finding that underpinned US fight against climate change
The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressive move by the president ...
Phys.org / Acoustic communication—an overlooked driver in boxfish evolution
A new international study reveals the unexpected importance of acoustic communication in the evolution of boxfishes. This discovery offers new perspectives on the role of acoustic communication in the evolutionary history ...
Phys.org / Where did that raindrop come from? Climate model ensemble captures worldwide water isotopes over 45 years
Water is made of hydrogen and oxygen, and sometimes these atoms are slightly heavier than usual. These heavier forms are called isotopes. As water evaporates or moves through the atmosphere, the amount of these isotopes changes ...
Medical Xpress / Research reveals mental health strain within swimming coaching
Sport and exercise psychologists at Nottingham Trent University wanted to better understand mental health and well-being in swimming coaches and to identify the challenges driving any stress-related health problems. The researchers ...

The rain hasn't stopped for hours. Wind rattles the shelter's windows as the storm outside swells, flooding the streets they used to call home. In a crowded gym, a family of four sit huddled together on makeshift beds pushed ...
Phys.org / Laser‑written glass chip pushes quantum communication toward practical deployment
As quantum computers continue to advance, many of today's encryption systems face the risk of becoming obsolete. A powerful alternative—quantum cryptography—offers security based on the laws of physics instead of computational ...
Medical Xpress / Berberine and leaky gut: Research explains persistent gut issues following intestinal infections
We often treat intestinal infections as an episode: a few days of symptoms, elimination of the pathogen, and recovery. In this view, the disease has a clear beginning and end. However, patient experiences and clinical data ...
Phys.org / Holistic monitoring system measures the state of lake ecosystems
A new holistic monitoring system developed under the leadership of TU Graz measures boat waves with millimeter precision using satellite navigation data and sensors on buoys and for the first time allows investigations into ...
