The emperor penguin has been declared an endangered species as climate change pushes the icon of Antarctica a step closer to extinction, the global authority on threatened wildlife announced on Thursday.
Medical Xpress / Smart MRI molecules developed to detect and treat cancer
Researchers at NYU Abu Dhabi have developed smart molecules that can both detect and treat cancer, offering a safer and more precise approach to care. The research, published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, ...
Medical Xpress / AI and biology: AI's potential for launching a novel era for health and medicine
It can be estimated theoretically that more unique biological interactions exist than stars in our known universe. The biological foundations of life are built on an unimaginably vast network of interactions, where molecules, ...
Phys.org / It's OK to love all the bees (the honey bees, too)
North America's bee populations are in trouble, but don't blame the honey bees. While some people argue that an overabundance of managed honey bees—those raised to help pollinate crops and produce honey—is causing native ...
Tech Xplore / Safer, water-based zinc-ion battery delivers 900-cycle durability
Researchers at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering have developed a rechargeable zinc-ion battery that uses low-cost materials and a simplified water-based assembly process to make safer, reliable batteries. The approach ...
Phys.org / World's largest study of human flourishing opens its data to the public
The Global Flourishing Study (GFS), the most comprehensive empirical investigation of human flourishing ever undertaken, has made its first two waves of data publicly available through the Center for Open Science at no cost ...
Phys.org / Improving air temperature forecasts one to five weeks in advance without new model simulations
Researchers at the Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo and George Mason University's College of Science have developed a new method that improves air temperature forecasts one to five weeks in advance—without ...
Tech Xplore / New software may nearly double pooled SSD performance in data centers
To improve data center efficiency, multiple storage devices are often pooled together over a network so many applications can share them. But even with pooling, significant device capacity remains underutilized due to performance ...
Phys.org / Artemis crew's families enthralled by messages from space
A week after astronaut Jeremy Hansen blasted off on the historic Artemis II mission to the moon, his wife Catherine recalled the anxiety and thrill of witnessing the journey from afar.
Tech Xplore / Memristor chip combines security and compute-in-memory for edge devices
A cross-institutional research team has developed Co-Located Authentication and Processing (CLAP), a privacy-preserving system that overcomes the trade-off between security and performance in edge computing devices. The study, ...
Medical Xpress / How one 'forever chemical' can disrupt a baby's facial development
Researchers have long associated per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), commonly known as "forever chemicals," with certain severe birth defects, but exactly how these pollutants harm a developing fetus has remained ...
Phys.org / Artemis II astronauts follow Apollo tradition of naming lunar features after loved ones
Lunar love knows no bounds. Now hurtling home from the moon, the Artemis II astronauts took a poignant page from Apollo 8 earlier this week, proposing deeply personal names for a pair of lunar craters.
