Phys.org / Supercomputer predicts 2026 World Cup results
A model built by researchers from the University of Liverpool's Management School predicts an England-Spain FIFA World Cup 2026 final, with Spain the favorite to lift the trophy—a repeat of recent major tournament history. ...
Medical Xpress / Type 1 diabetes diagnoses surge among Puerto Rican teens
The incidence of type 1 diabetes among teens in Puerto Rico more than doubled from 2009 to 2021 and remained elevated through 2024, with an average annual increase of 4.1%, according to a study presented at ENDO 2026, the ...
Tech Xplore / Food waste beads could boost direct air capture by 10% to 50%
In order to stabilize global warming at less than 1.5°C in the long term, there is a need not only for a drastic reduction in greenhouse gas emissions but also for technologies to remove and store hundreds of billions of ...
Phys.org / Chemists snap together complex 3D molecules from highly reactive 'radicals'—without losing their shape
Building the complex 3D molecules needed for new medicines has always been a bit like assembling a puzzle with pieces that keep trying to flip over. Now, chemists at Scripps Research have found a way to snap two such molecular ...
Phys.org / A lack of sex held back life's diversity for millions of years, fossil study finds
The way that Earth's first animals reproduced held back life's diversity for millions of years, until stress and competition led to the development of sexual reproduction, which in turn accelerated the pace of evolution.
Phys.org / Family wealth reaches further: Grandparents' income links to grandchildren's college access
It has long been understood that parents' income plays a major role in children's access to higher education. But a new study published in Canadian Studies in Population suggests that grandparents' income matters, too. By ...
Phys.org / New art test could help museums spot fake Van Goghs without touching paintings
A new study published in the peer-reviewed journal Surface Topography: Metrology and Properties introduces a pioneering, noninvasive technique that can distinguish authentic artworks from forgeries, offering museums, collectors, ...
Phys.org / Newfound 'whale necropolis' reveals 5.3 million years of seafloor life
Whale falls form when whale carcasses sink to the seafloor, creating localized concentrations of biodiversity in the deep ocean. Besides playing a role in long-term carbon sequestration, whale falls help scientists understand ...
Phys.org / Microbial alliances, not mitochondria alone, may have built first eukaryotic cells
All cells in animals, plants, fungi, and protists share a fundamental characteristic: they are eukaryotic cells—complex cells with specialized internal compartments. The cells that make up our bodies are no exception.
Tech Xplore / Seeing through a robot's eyes: Augmented reality helps humans predict machine behavior
As robots increasingly move out of factories and into workplaces, hospitals, warehouses and public spaces, a simple challenge becomes increasingly important: helping people understand what those machines are about to do.
Medical Xpress / Natural protein scaffold may speed bone healing by growing blood vessels at same time
For patients suffering from traumatic injuries that leave behind "volumetric" gaps—where significant bone and blood vessels are lost—the clock is always ticking. Without a nearby blood supply, cells in the center of a large ...
Phys.org / Ancient genome duplications laid the foundations of complex brains, research suggests
New findings, published in Nature, help answer the riddle of how vertebrates evolved the diverse array of brain cells that distinguishes them from other animals. It appears that a dramatic expansion of the genetic toolkit ...
