Phys.org / Sun-watcher SOHO celebrates 30 years
On 2 December 1995, the ESA/NASA Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) blasted into space—on what was supposed to be a two-year mission.
Medical Xpress / AI brain scan model identifies stroke, brain tumors and aneurysms
A new AI model could help radiologists identify brain abnormalities in MRI scans for all conditions including stroke, multiple sclerosis and brain tumors.
Medical Xpress / Hidden cellular layers revealed in brain's memory center
Researchers at the Mark and Mary Stevens Neuroimaging and Informatics Institute (Stevens INI) at the Keck School of Medicine of USC have identified a previously unknown pattern of organization in one of the brain's most important ...
Phys.org / Do super-Jupiters look like Jupiter? Not necessarily, study shows
Using images from the James Webb Space Telescope (Webb), an international research team including Western's Stanimir Metchev has discovered new answers to explain how some brown dwarfs form giant dust storms, contradicting ...
Phys.org / X-ray laser offers new look at protein movement inside cells
At European XFEL, researchers have observed in detail how the vital iron protein ferritin makes its way in highly dense environments—with implications for medicine and nanotechnology.
Medical Xpress / New test distinguishes vaccine-induced false positives from active HIV infection
Since the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was identified in 1983, roughly 91.4 million people around the world have contracted the virus and an additional 44.1 million have died from related causes. Currently, nearly 40 ...
Medical Xpress / Evidence lacking for medical cannabis in most conditions, researchers find
Medical cannabis lacks adequate scientific backing for most of the conditions it is commonly used to treat, including chronic pain, anxiety and insomnia, according to a comprehensive review led by UCLA Health.
Tech Xplore / Can AI make us more creative? Study reveals surprising benefits of human-AI collaboration
Artificial intelligence (AI) is often seen as a tool to automate tasks and replace humans, but new research from Swansea University challenges this view, showing that AI can also act as a creative, engaging and inspiring ...
Phys.org / Water-resistant and recyclable redox-active MOFs enable stable energy storage in acidic solutions
Redox-active metal-organic frameworks (RAMOFs) are highly porous materials made of metals and organic molecules linked together by coordination bonds, and they contain redox-active sites that can store electrons (protons). ...
Medical Xpress / Hospital visits for hallucinogen use linked to six-fold higher risk of later mania
People who have received emergency or hospital care in Canada due to hallucinogen use have a six-fold increased risk of receiving care for mania in the next three years, according to a study published in PLOS Medicine by ...
Phys.org / Adjustable DNA 'shield' can control timing and rate at which mRNA produces proteins in vivo
mRNA, widely known from the COVID-19 vaccine, is not actually a "therapeutic agent," but a technology that delivers the blueprint for functional proteins in the body and induces therapeutic effects. Recently, its application ...
Phys.org / A new jaguar spotted in Arizona points to progress in the endangered species' recovery
The spots gave it away. Just like a human fingerprint, the rosette pattern on each jaguar is unique so researchers knew they had a new animal on their hands after reviewing images captured by a remote camera in southern Arizona.
