Phys.org / What most corporate carbon reports get wrong, and how to fix them
A new Stanford-led analysis of corporate carbon disclosures finds that companies undercount emissions from their supply chains by billions of tons.
Phys.org / Yeast DNA changes reveal hidden triggers for cancer-linked chromosome chaos
Changes in genes have been linked to the development of different diseases for a while. However, it's not exactly clear what the mechanisms, or the causes behind those specific genetic changes, are. Recent studies using fission ...
Medical Xpress / Study finds high blood pressure primes heart for damage from cancer drugs
Anthracyclines are among the most widely used chemotherapy drugs and have been a mainstay of cancer treatment for more than 30 years. Their extraordinary efficacy against numerous solid and hematologic tumors means that they ...
Tech Xplore / Free tool can reduce harmful engagement with AI-generated explicit images
A new evidence-based online educational tool aims to curb the watching, sharing, and creation of AI-generated explicit imagery.
Medical Xpress / T cells gain superior memory through new reprogramming method, boosting cancer-fighting abilities
Georgetown University's Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center researchers have identified a new way to reprogram T cells, which are infection and tumor-fighting white blood cells, so that they have a superior memory, thereby ...
Phys.org / Queen conch's hopping behavior helps set new conservation guidance
A new study published in Conservation Biology examines the behavior and distribution of queen conch (Aliger gigas) to guide conservation management for the threatened sea snail.
Medical Xpress / Two wrongs make a right: How two damaging disease variants can restore health
Scientists at Pacific Northwest Research Institute (PNRI) have overturned a long-held belief in genetics: that inheriting two harmful variants of the same gene always worsens disease. Instead, the team found that in many ...
Phys.org / Genomic study uncovers button mushroom's evolutionary and domestication history
A large-scale population genomic study has shed new light on the evolutionary and domestication history of the button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus), one of the most widely cultivated edible fungi in the world.
Phys.org / Surprise discovery reveals silica's hidden potential in flat optics
An unexpected discovery in a Harvard lab has led to a breakthrough insight into choosing an unconventional material, silica, to make optical metasurfaces—ultra-thin, flat structures that control light at the nanoscale and ...
Tech Xplore / Fragmented permitting slows US clean energy projects, study finds
As states race to build wind and solar projects needed to curb climate change, how governments approve those projects can either speed construction or fuel delays and conflict, according to a new study by researchers at the ...
Phys.org / Melting glaciers may mix up waters more than we thought
As marine-terminating glaciers melt, the resulting freshwater is released at the seafloor, which mixes with salty seawater and influences circulation patterns. As the oceans warm, it's growing increasingly important to study ...
Medical Xpress / Genetic risk factor and viral infection jointly contribute to multiple sclerosis, study suggests
Recent findings suggest that the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is involved in both causing multiple sclerosis (MS) and shaping its progression.
