Medical Xpress / Human health appears unaffected by living near wind turbines
High-resolution data collected across the United States show negligible evidence of adverse health outcomes tied to wind turbine exposure, a study finds. Despite helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, wind turbine installations ...
Tech Xplore / AI can seem more human than real humans in a classic Turing test
A new University of California San Diego study unveils the first empirical evidence that a modern artificial intelligence system can pass the Turing test—a major scientific benchmark that asks whether a machine can imitate ...
Phys.org / New field evidence from Canada shows old wells can leave a hidden leakage footprint
Old oil and gas wells may continue to affect the environment long after they have stopped producing, with new field evidence showing that their leakage footprint can be broader and more persistent than surface methane measurements ...
Medical Xpress / New technique discovers previously unknown population of immune cells in the Alzheimer's brain
A newly developed microscopy technique allows, for the first time, the visualization of more than 30 protein markers simultaneously in the human brain and uses bioinformatics to analyze their spatial relationships. In the ...
Phys.org / SMILE spacecraft launches to capture first X-ray views of Earth's magnetic shield
A joint European-Chinese spacecraft blasted into orbit Tuesday to investigate what happens when extreme winds and giant explosions of plasma shot out from the sun slam into Earth's magnetic shield.
Phys.org / Urban life makes animals bolder, more aggressive across 133 species, analysis finds
A global analysis has found that urban animals are bolder and more aggressive, exploratory and active than their rural counterparts. The findings are published in the Journal of Animal Ecology.
Medical Xpress / How medical education can revive the physician–scientist pipeline
The physician–scientist has long occupied a unique place in medicine—bridging the laboratory and the clinic, translating scientific discoveries into innovative patient care. But that role is becoming increasingly rare. The ...
Phys.org / We're 'green chemists'—why we think this emerging science can transform the way the world uses its resources
Society depends on chemistry far more than we consciously realize, from medicines to energy to electronics. However, chemistry is viewed with as much apprehension as gratitude, because of the pollution and health problems ...
Phys.org / This German dialect leaves AI baffled, exposing a digital language blind spot
How well do language models understand Meenzerisch, the dialect spoken in the German city of Mainz? A research team led by Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) has now investigated this question for the first time. Meenzerisch ...
Tech Xplore / Scalable manufacturing of perovskite photovoltaics achieved through fast, solvent-free vacuum deposition
Solar energy is a cornerstone of the energy transition. Tandem solar cells made of perovskite and silicon can achieve higher efficiencies than conventional silicon cells, but their industrial manufacturing remains a challenge. ...
Tech Xplore / Giant wind turbine rises in Germany amid far-right headwinds
A wind turbine billed as the world's tallest is rising in eastern Germany, winning praise as a beacon for a clean, green energy future and headwinds from the far-right AfD party.
Medical Xpress / One in four doctors believe human preservation and future revival could work, but not without challenges
A new survey of U.S. physicians focuses on human preservation procedures and the feasibility of future revival. Ariel Zeleznikow-Johnston of Monash University, Australia, and colleagues present their findings in the study, ...
