Phys.org / The genome editing playbook is different in neurons and other nondividing cells, researchers discover
The gene editing tool known as CRISPR-Cas9 is changing what's possible for treating a wide range of diseases caused by genetic mutations. But so far, attempts to use the technology to address brain-based genetic disorders ...
Medical Xpress / New clues to why some women experience recurrent miscarriage
Researchers at the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute, University of Sydney, and the Royal Hospital for Women have uncovered important new insights into the biology of recurrent miscarriage—a devastating condition ...
Phys.org / Algorithm finds smallest dataset that guarantees optimal solutions to complex problems
Determining the least expensive path for a new subway line underneath a metropolis like New York City is a colossal planning challenge—involving thousands of potential routes through hundreds of city blocks, each with uncertain ...
Medical Xpress / Reduced opioid use found after knee surgery with mini-scope technique
A new study led by Marshall University researchers found that patients who underwent knee surgery using a minimally invasive "needle arthroscopy" technique used significantly fewer opioids after surgery compared to those ...
Medical Xpress / Study sheds light on cellular resistance to osimertinib in adenocarcinoma
Some lung cancers manage to overcome a targeted drug therapy despite it showing initial success. Yale researchers have now discovered a molecular-level resistance mechanism that begins to take hold as early as six to eight ...
Phys.org / Hunting for 'wandering' black holes in dwarf galaxies
Tracking down black holes at the center of dwarf galaxies has proven difficult. In part it is because they have a tendency to "wander" and are not located at the galaxy's center. There are plenty of galaxies that might contain ...
Phys.org / Floating solar panels show promise, but environmental impacts vary by location, study finds
Floating solar panels are emerging as a promising clean energy solution with environmental benefits, but a new study published in Limnologica finds those effects vary significantly depending on where the systems are deployed.
Tech Xplore / X-ray vision dives deep to boost safety, inspection and response
X-ray imaging is useful for seeing inside objects without causing damage, but until now it was not practical for use underwater. Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers have developed the first X-ray imaging system that ...
Tech Xplore / Google unveils Gemini 3, aiming to turn its search engine into a 'thought partner'
Google is unleashing its Gemini 3 artificial intelligence model on its dominant search engine and other popular online services in the high-stakes battle to create technology that people can trust to enlighten them and manage ...
Phys.org / Machine learning framework can scan for signs of extraterrestrial life
A machine learning framework can distinguish molecules made by biological processes from those formed through non-biological processes and could be used to analyze samples returned by current and future planetary missions. ...
Phys.org / Our solar system is moving faster than expected
How fast and in which direction is our solar system moving through the universe? This seemingly simple question is one of the key tests of our cosmological understanding. A research team led by astrophysicist Lukas Böhme ...
Phys.org / Beyond the habitable zone: Exoplanet atmospheres are next clue to finding life on planets orbiting distant stars
When astronomers search for planets that could host liquid water on their surface, they start by looking at a star's habitable zone. Water is a key ingredient for life, and on a planet too close to its star, water on its ...
