Phys.org / Behind every COP is a global data project that predicts Earth's future—here's how it works
Over the past week we've witnessed the many political discussions that go with the territory of a COP—or, more verbosely, the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
Phys.org / Turkey will host COP31, Australia will play a role. So where does that leave the Pacific?
After a long and deadlocked bidding process for Australia and Pacific Island nations to co-host the UN climate summit (COP31), the event will now be hosted by Turkey. Australia's Climate Minister, Chris Bowen, will reportedly ...
Medical Xpress / Chronic inflammation in bone marrow linked to early blood cancer development
Blood cancers such as leukemia are caused by genetic changes in the blood-forming stem cells of the bone marrow. Scientists at the University Medical Center Mainz have now shown how chronic inflammation can alter the bone ...
Tech Xplore / Experts detect AI text by looking for human idiosyncrasies, like word variation and complex sentences
One of the things that AI doesn't have that humans have in abundance is fingerprints.
Phys.org / Aliens? Submarines? Gassy whales? Mystery bubbles off California coast spark intrigue, theories
Is it a gassy whale? A top secret submarine? Godzilla rising from the surfer-filled waters of Hermosa Beach?
Medical Xpress / Chemotherapy drug for brain cancer may be more effective at certain times of the day
When doctors biopsy and treat cancer may be just as important as how they treat it. New research from Erik Herzog, Ph.D., the Viktor Hamburger Distinguished Professor in biology in Arts & Sciences at Washington University ...
Medical Xpress / Poor health is the primary driver of involuntary retirement, study finds
Poor health is the primary reason why more than half of middle-aged workers in the United States retire earlier than planned, but state vocational rehabilitation agencies that provide career assistance to individuals with ...
Medical Xpress / Physicians map patients' brain waves to personalize epilepsy treatment
Mayo Clinic researchers have developed a new, personalized approach to deep brain stimulation (DBS) for people with drug-resistant epilepsy. By mapping each patient's unique brain wave patterns, the method allows physicians ...
Phys.org / Quantum-centric supercomputing simulates supramolecular interactions
A team led by Cleveland Clinic's Kenneth Merz, Ph.D., and IBM's Antonio Mezzacapo, Ph.D., is developing quantum computing methods to simulate and study supramolecular processes that guide how entire molecules interact with ...
Medical Xpress / Blink to the beat: Scientists discover that when we listen to music, we unconsciously blink our eyes
Yi Du and colleagues from the Chinese Academy of Sciences published an article in the open access journal PLOS Biology detailing their findings about a new way our bodies naturally respond to music. Given a steady beat, our ...
Medical Xpress / Exercising in mid and later life can reduce dementia risk, new study suggests
For years, scientists have known that moving our bodies can sharpen our minds. Physical activity boosts blood flow to the brain, enhances neuroplasticity and reduces chronic inflammation. These processes are believed to protect ...
Phys.org / Efficient quantum process tomography for enabling scalable optical quantum computing
Optical quantum computers are gaining attention as a next-generation computing technology with high speed and scalability. However, accurately characterizing complex optical processes, where multiple optical modes interact ...
