Phys.org / Coal-fired power generation rising globally on Mideast war: IEA
Coal-fired power generation is set to increase in 2026, driven by supply difficulties and soaring natural gas prices linked to the war in the Middle East, the International Energy Agency said Thursday.
Phys.org / New cell imaging method measures protein folding in living organelles
Protein aggregates are associated with the development of diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. These are found more often in certain areas of cells known as membraneless organelles. Do these organelles promote this ...
Phys.org / Quantum entanglement without transport: Leaky qubits offer route around noisy channels
The inevitable leakage of energy and information from a quantum system into its surrounding environment is the enemy of quantum technology. Now, researchers have demonstrated that it can be exploited to generate entanglement—the ...
Phys.org / Predicting where wildfire smoke will go next
In recent summers, wildfire smoke has been inescapable across Wisconsin, drifting south from Canada and leading to long stretches of poor air quality. Whether that smoke clears or lingers is often influenced in part by the ...
Medical Xpress / Test offers new way to personalize treatment, reduce unnecessary chemotherapy for patients with breast cancer
A new cancer diagnostic test marketed by Veracyte and developed by a group of researchers, including UNC geneticist Charles Perou, Ph.D., has been found to accurately predict whether patients with breast cancer need chemotherapy ...
Medical Xpress / Hidden cell network offers new clues to intestinal healing and disease
Your intestine completely rebuilds its inner lining every few days—one of the fastest renewal processes in the human body. Scientists have now discovered that this extraordinary feat is accompanied by a hidden network of ...
Phys.org / How the encephalomyocarditis virus hijacks host protein machinery
Viruses lack the molecular machinery required for protein synthesis. Instead, they hijack the host's protein-making machinery, specifically ribosomes and translational factors. This process is essential for viral multiplication ...
Tech Xplore / Closed-loop AI framework could shorten clean energy materials development by years
Developing the materials needed for cleaner energy technologies has traditionally been a slow and expensive process, often relying on years of trial and error. Now, researchers have outlined a new artificial intelligence ...
Medical Xpress / Researchers discover the eye's hidden cleanup system
Many of the world's leading causes of irreversible blindness, including glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration, share a common problem: the buildup of fluid, waste and inflammatory debris in the back of the eye.
Phys.org / Researchers develop methods for breaking down forever chemicals
Researchers at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) have developed two processes—hydrodynamic cavitation and cold atmospheric plasma combined with gas dispersion—to break down per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances ...
Phys.org / Truffles are on the menu for threatened marsupials returning to a World Heritage area
A new study from Edith Cowan University (ECU) confirms that the presence of fungal food resources is important for supporting the reintroduction of two threatened marsupials to the Shark Bay World Heritage area, which could ...
Phys.org / Chasing subseasonal forecasts with AI
Subseasonal forecasting, or the ability to predict weather trends two weeks to two months in advance, is a capability highly sought after in various economic sectors, including energy, water management and agriculture. Reliable ...
