Medical Xpress / New data on spontaneous coronary artery dissection—a common cause of heart attacks in younger women
New insights into spontaneous coronary artery dissection—a devastating cause of heart attacks in young, healthy patients—were presented at the EAPCI Summit 2026.
Phys.org / Why do people living at high altitudes have better glucose control? The answer was in plain sight
In a 2023 paper on hypoxia and glucose metabolism, our lab showed how organisms rewire their metabolism to adapt to low oxygen levels—such as those found at high altitudes. One of the most striking observations from that ...
Medical Xpress / Debilitating tropical virus can spread in cool weather, posing a greater health risk than previously thought
Chikungunya virus, a debilitating tropical disease caused by infected mosquito bites, poses a greater health threat in Europe than previously thought because it can be spread when air temperatures are as low as 13°C. Researchers ...
Tech Xplore / People are overconfident about spotting AI faces, study finds
Most people believe they can spot AI-generated faces, but that confidence is out of date, research from UNSW Sydney and the Australian National University (ANU) has demonstrated. With AI-generated faces now almost impossible ...
Phys.org / Horses with over 30 minutes of REM sleep show better persistence in learning tasks
Just as for humans, sufficient sleep supports learning and coping for horses. A recent study at the University of Helsinki indicates that short periods of REM sleep impair horses' perseverance and performance in demanding ...
Phys.org / New nanohole-based microscopy monitors electrochemical reactions millisecond by millisecond
Many technological applications, such as sensors and batteries, greatly rely on electrochemical reactions. Improving these technologies depends on understanding how electrochemical reactions work. However, most current methods ...
Phys.org / NASA boss blasts Boeing and space agency managers for Starliner's botched astronaut flight
NASA's new boss blasted Boeing and the space agency Thursday for Starliner's botched flight that left two astronauts stuck for months at the International Space Station.
Phys.org / In Tampa, storm-weary residents detail the costs of extreme weather
An Ybor business owner closed her yoga studio repeatedly from worries over moldy, waterlogged walls. A Pinellas woman's home flooded in one hurricane, and a tree crushed her car in another. A Tampa student feared her insulin ...
Medical Xpress / Brainwaves of mothers and children synchronize when playing together—even in an acquired language
Interbrain synchrony is the simultaneous activity of neural networks across the brains of people who are socially interacting—for example, talking, learning, singing, or working together. Having brains that are thus synchronized ...
Phys.org / New tool could reduce collision risk for Earth-observation satellites
Researchers at The University of Manchester have developed a new way to design Earth-observation satellite missions that could help protect the space environment while continuing to deliver vital data for tackling global ...
Medical Xpress / A genetic brake that forms our muscles: Variant linked to endurance may also raise odds of injury
In an international study, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have identified a gene variant that controls the body's capability to form new blood vessels in muscles—a mechanism that affects physical performance, ...
Phys.org / Plasma rotation simulations could help fusion reactors survive decades of use
Scientists have long seen a puzzling pattern in tokamaks, the doughnut-shaped machines that could one day reliably generate electricity from fusing atoms. When plasma particles escape the core of the magnetic fields that ...
