Dialog / Bound gravitational waves inspired by photonic systems
When one mentions "waves," we immediately think of a perturbation that propagates. This applies to waves on the shore, sound waves in the air or electromagnetic waves that we use to transmit information via optical fibers. ...
Medical Xpress / Advanced genetic testing opens new treatment options for nearly one in three cancer patients, study finds
A new study from London Health Sciences Centre Research Institute (LHSCRI) shows that expanded genetic testing can help match cancer patients with more personalized treatment options, with nearly one in three found eligible ...
Tech Xplore / Physics-informed AI method speeds thermal energy storage design optimization
With intensifying climate change, decarbonizing the global building sector has become a key priority. A substantial portion of a building's energy demand comes from heating and cooling. Consequently, developing efficient ...
Phys.org / Survey finds social work needs clearer ethical guidance for AI use
Much like the automobile a century earlier, generative artificial intelligence has arrived in society with significant concerns. Just as cities and towns learned that cars required limits governing their use and development, ...
Medical Xpress / Wearable sensors and AI could monitor blood pressure in ICU
Wearable sensors coupled with AI can generate blood pressure readings nearly as accurately as the invasive and risky arterial lines relied on in intensive care units and operating rooms, new work by Johns Hopkins University ...
Phys.org / River shipping emits nearly one-quarter of global shipping CO₂, analysis finds
River and canal ships generate roughly a quarter of the world's shipping carbon dioxide emissions, according to new research published in Nature Climate Change. And that's despite the fact that these bodies of water make ...
Tech Xplore / New EU laws make AI content labels compulsory—but might just make it harder to spot deepfakes
As the world is increasingly flooded with deepfakes, the European Union is taking action to help people distinguish what is real and what is not.
Medical Xpress / Clean air policies linked to improved cognition among New York City children
Beginning in the late 1990s, air pollution declined in New York City following the implementation of clean air and climate policies. According to new research by scientists at Columbia University Mailman School of Public ...
Phys.org / Scientists simulating ant swarms find a 'first mover' can set the colony in motion
In ant colonies, a single ant can be the catalyst for a wave of mob activity, launching brief bursts of coordinated movement involving hundreds or even thousands of swarming workers, according to new simulations from New ...
Medical Xpress / Parent summaries reveal daily strengths and needs in children with autism or ADHD
When children are assessed for autism or ADHD, the focus is on diagnostic criteria and symptoms. However, it is often just as important to gain a clear and coherent picture of how the child functions in everyday life.
Phys.org / Poor genetic health threatens many species—but it's fixable
By the early 1990s, there were only around 20 Florida panthers left on the planet.
Medical Xpress / Intervention program reduces children's anxiety and improves functional ability
A new follow-up study examined the efficacy of the Master Your Worries program developed by the Research Center for Child Psychiatry at the University of Turku in Finland. It involved 465 Finnish children ages 10–13 who showed ...
