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 / AI won't replace you, but it will redefine what makes you valuable at work
Across the world, workers are increasingly anxious that artificial intelligence (AI) will make their jobs obsolete. But the evidence from research and industry tells a very different story. AI is not taking over the workplace. ...
Phys.org / In pursuit of Bigfoot: The people searching for the truth behind the mystery
People hunting for Bigfoot use sophisticated techniques for collecting and validating evidence, drawing on scientific methods to try and prove its existence, research shows.
Phys.org / Andes glaciers will fail to buffer megadroughts by century's end, study suggests
In light of the ongoing fifteen-year megadrought in Chile, an international team of researchers, including Francesca Pellicciotti from the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA), addressed a bold future scenario. ...
Medical Xpress / Targeted protein degradation: A new way to combat harmful proteins in tumor cells
A new active substance attacks a key protein in tumor cells, leading to complete degradation. In cell experiments, this caused cancer cells to lose their protection and die. The active substance was developed by researchers ...
Medical Xpress / Bone-targeted estrogen delivery reverses postmenopausal osteoporosis without uterine side effects in mice
Postmenopausal osteoporosis is a condition that weakens bones, making them brittle and prone to fracture. Taking the hormone estradiol can reverse these effects, but it may also increase endometrial and uterine cancer risks. ...
Phys.org / Non-contact detection method to identify trace fentanyl
Scientists at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), working with Florida International University's (FIU) Global Forensic and Justice Center, have demonstrated a new method for detecting trace levels of fentanyl using ...
Tech Xplore / Could atoms be reordered to enhance electronic devices?
The optical properties of a thin layer of the semiconductor germanium-tin (GeSn) sandwiched between barriers of silicon-germanium-tin (SiGeSn), a structure known as a quantum well, have been studied with a focus on improving ...
Phys.org / Fake survey answers from AI could quietly sway election predictions
Public opinion polls and other surveys rely on data to understand human behavior. New research from Dartmouth reveals that artificial intelligence can now corrupt public opinion surveys at scale—passing every quality check, ...
Medical Xpress / First fully synthetic brain tissue model engineered by scientists
For the first time, scientists have grown functional, brain-like tissue without using any animal-derived materials or added biological coatings. The development opens the door to more controlled and humane neurological drug ...
Phys.org / Weather behind past heat waves could return far deadlier
The weather patterns that produced some of Europe's most extreme heat waves over the past three decades could prove far more lethal if they strike in today's hotter climate, pushing weekly deaths toward levels seen during ...
Phys.org / 'Worms in space' experiment aims to investigate the biological effects of spaceflight
A crew of tiny worms will be heading on a mission to the International Space Station in 2026 that will help scientists understand how humans can travel through space safely, using a Leicester-built space pod.
