Phys.org / Capped VLS growth yields vanadium-doped MoS₂ films with superior CO₂-to-CO conversion
CO2 reduction to storable fuels or valuable chemical products provides a carbon-neutral cycle that can mitigate the rapid consumption of fossil fuels and increasing CO2 emissions. Although solar-driven CO2 reduction holds ...
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 ...
Medical Xpress / Common diabetes drug fails to improve walking performance in peripheral artery disease patients
A common diabetes medication does not help people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) and without diabetes walk farther, according to results from a major U.S. clinical trial published in JAMA.
Medical Xpress / AI model predicts neural network degeneration patterns in ALS progression
New research from the University of St Andrews, the University of Copenhagen and Drexel University has developed AI computational models that predict the degeneration of neural networks in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Phys.org / Satellites and AI can help tackle critical invasive species problem
Satellite imagery and artificial intelligence can detect with high accuracy two invasive weed species in Australia, posing a new opportunity for defense against these pervasive plants.
Medical Xpress / Understanding how right- or left-hand dominance could open a window into the autistic brain
Most people take for granted which hand they use to reach for a cup of coffee or a puzzle piece. However, a new study out of York University suggests that for autistic individuals, which hand they use for various tasks is ...
Tech Xplore / AI system with smart eyes detects welding defects
Örebro researchers Rajesh Patil and Professor Magnus Löfstrand have developed an AI system that detects welding defects, reduces material waste, and supports sustainable manufacturing.
Phys.org / What air pollution does to the human body
I grew up in rural Colorado, deep in the mountains, and I can still remember the first time I visited Denver in the early 2000s. The city sits on the plain, skyscrapers rising and buildings extending far into the distance. ...
Medical Xpress / How our nasal passages defend against the common cold and help determine how sick we get
When a rhinovirus, the most frequent cause of the common cold, infects the lining of our nasal passages, our cells work together to fight the virus by triggering an arsenal of antiviral defenses.
Phys.org / The alien hunter's shopping list
We recently discussed the different types of worlds that the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) is expected to find that might have noticeable biosignatures. However, no matter how good the instrumentation on board the observatory ...
Phys.org / Endometrial mRNA therapy to treat infertility finds early success
Researchers from the Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins Medicine Center for Nanomedicine—which designs nanotechnology-based platforms for clinical translation across specialties—developed a strategy for delivering therapeutic ...
Phys.org / Fighting climate change in the Sahel is worsening conflicts. New research shows how
The Sahel, the semi-arid African region stretching from the Atlantic Ocean in the west to the Red Sea in the east, has become the epicenter of global terrorism, given the high number of attacks by armed groups and the resulting ...
