Medical Xpress / The frontier of women's health care innovation
JMIR Publications has released a News and Perspectives story on technological innovations in women's health care. In "Bridging the Gender Gap in Health Care Innovation: The Evolution of FemTech," correspondent Jenny Castillo ...
Phys.org / How Artemis II livestreamed hi-def videos and images from the moon to Earth
This April, humanity had front-row seats to space as the Artemis II Orion spacecraft transmitted crystal-clear footage of its historic journey around the moon from more than 250,000 miles (about 402,000 kilometers) back to ...
Medical Xpress / AI in nursing raises questions about safety, ethics, and human care
As artificial intelligence systems spread through hospitals and clinics, a growing debate is emerging over whether the technology will ultimately strengthen nursing care—or gradually replace parts of it.
Phys.org / Tea compound boosts seaweed hydrogel strength fivefold, while tuning adhesion and breakdown
Could wound healing dressings adhere better, and could drug delivery patches become more sophisticated? A KAIST research team has developed a technology that leverages natural ingredients derived from plants to increase the ...
Phys.org / AI doesn't just help us think, it thinks instead of us: What this means for the process of learning
Deep in Book VII of Plato's Republic, Socrates describes prisoners chained inside a cave, mistaking shadows cast on a wall by firelight for reality itself. They name the shadows, debate them and develop expertise about them. ...
Phys.org / Chloroplast map reveals 'missing link' in plant growth and solar energy
For decades, science has understood the basics of photosynthesis, the process by which plants turn sunlight into food. However, photosynthesis occurs on uniquely specialized membranes that we have only begun to understand. ...
Tech Xplore / NASA robotic tech demonstration will advance prototype gamma-ray detectors
A new type of gamma-ray sensor developed by NASA, called AstroPix, will take part in a robotic arm demonstration on the agency's upcoming Fly Foundational Robots mission, set to launch in late 2027.
Phys.org / Nature's 'master painters': Study reveals how damselflies break optical barriers to create saturated colors
Scientists at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) have uncovered for the first time the "ingenious" biological strategies that allow blue-tailed damselflies to produce strikingly vivid, angle-independent colors. The ...
Phys.org / Scientists uncover RNA's hidden role as protein chaperone
Proteins are how cells get work done. They carry out nearly every important cellular task, from ferrying messages to controlling which genes are turned on or off. And in order for proteins to perform their various roles, ...
Tech Xplore / Researchers discover hidden chip threats and a way to stop them
Every day, billions of people trust computer chips to protect their most sensitive information, ranging from banking passwords to national security secrets. But what if those chips were secretly compromised before they even ...
Phys.org / Did this star eat its planets? A new study offers clues on 'chemical paradox' of a binary system
Astronomers have investigated a puzzling binary star system in which two stars that may have formed together now show dramatically different chemical compositions. The new study, uploaded to the arXiv preprint server on May ...
Tech Xplore / Robots learn to anticipate chaos, but still fail to read a decidedly human signal
Cornell researchers are investigating the potential for using artificial intelligence to give robots social intelligence—the ability to read facial cues, anticipate the needs of those around them, and function within society. ...
