Medical Xpress / Why asthma risk differs by sex: Study links early-life exposures to lung gene networks
A new study has confirmed that male and female lungs are "wired differently" at the molecular level, providing further evidence supporting sex-inclusive respiratory disease research and treatment. The work is published in ...
Medical Xpress / Researchers expose safety gaps in AI tools for health care
A new international study suggests most clinical artificial intelligence (AI) tools are not yet ready for safe, equitable use at the bedside. In the scoping review published in Medical Research Archives, researchers including ...
Tech Xplore / Supercomputer provides high-fidelity insights into turbine aerothermal performance
In a long-running collaboration with GE Aerospace, researchers at the University of Melbourne in Australia have been steadily working to improve the performance of high-pressure turbine (HPT) engines through computer simulations ...
Phys.org / Urgent need for school-housing partnerships to support students facing housing instability, according to study
Housing instability, often invisible to schools until it begins to disrupt attendance, learning, or mental health, is a growing challenge for families with school-age children, according to new research. A policy scan led ...
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 ...
Phys.org / When heat flows backwards: A neat solution for hydrodynamic heat transport
When we think about heat traveling through a material, we typically picture diffusive transport, a process that transfers heat from high-temperature to low-temperature as particles and molecules bump into each other, losing ...
Phys.org / New dataset reveals how US law has grown more complex over the past century
A century ago, the section of U.S. federal law governing public health and welfare was relatively small and loosely connected to the rest of the legal system. Today, it is one of the largest and most interconnected parts ...
Medical Xpress / Study finds gaps in concussion reporting across Texas high schools
Fewer concussions were reported among Texas high school athletes and students in urban and lower-income districts than in higher-income suburban districts despite larger enrollments, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers ...
Medical Xpress / Risk of Nipah spread low after cases in India, Bangladesh: WHO
The World Health Organization has said the risk of the deadly Nipah virus spreading was low after three cases of infection were recently confirmed in India and Bangladesh.
Phys.org / Bison hunters abandoned long-used site 1,100 years ago to adapt to changing climate, Great Plains study finds
On the Great Plains of North America, bison were hunted for thousands of years before populations collapsed to near extinction due to overexploitation in the late 1800s. But long before then, bison hunters used various strategies ...
Phys.org / Overcoming a barrier to projecting near-term climate evolution and risk
The Earth is warming more rapidly than before, and extreme weather events are becoming more frequent and more intense. While global warming is mainly driven by carbon dioxide emissions, it is also influenced by air pollution. ...
Phys.org / Software tool can detect hidden errors in complex tissue analyses
A new software tool, ovrlpy, improves quality control in spatial transcriptomics, a key technology in biomedical research. Developed by the Berlin Institute of Health at Charité (BIH) in international collaboration, ovrlpy ...
