Phys.org / Heat stress linked to higher koala hospitalizations and deaths above 27 C
New research from the University of Sydney has provided the first associative link between heat stress and koala mortality. Published in Biology Letters, the results highlight how even moderate temperature rises can increase ...
Phys.org / AI and drones can help improve early warning systems for Vibrio bacteria in the Baltic Sea
The presence of the marine bacterium Vibrio vulnificus, which is potentially dangerous to humans, can now be predicted up to five weeks in advance in the Baltic Sea using artificial intelligence (AI). A research team led ...
Phys.org / Tuning into quantum sounds: Acoustic devices simplify quantum sensors
When a singer belts out a tune while a guitar player strums along, sound waves travel through the air, driving collective oscillations of the molecules within. Meanwhile, at the quantum level, something similar is going on. ...
Medical Xpress / The nocebo effect: How prior experience and verbal suggestion rewire the brain to make pain worse
Researchers have a better understanding of the nocebo effect and the neuroscience behind it all. Opposite of the better-known placebo effect, where positive expectations trigger genuine pain relief, the nocebo effect is the ...
Medical Xpress / Analysis of 14 million Reddit posts reveals a striking shift in how we talk about mental health
More people are relying on social media—such as TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and Reddit—to learn about mental health conditions and to interact with people who have shared experiences.
Phys.org / Leaving gravity behind: Experiment from ISS reveals how particles alter turbulent flow behavior
After traveling hundreds of miles above Earth and spending months aboard the International Space Station, a University of Delaware experiment has returned to campus, bringing new data on how turbulence behaves in microgravity.
Tech Xplore / GitHub workflows unlock what really speeds software innovation
In a bustling restaurant kitchen, efficiency requires more than just machines that wash dishes or chop vegetables. It requires a conductor to ensure the appetizer, main course, and dessert are prepared in the right sequence, ...
Medical Xpress / Study identifies protein that helps eye cancer spread to the liver
A study led by researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center helps explain why uveal melanoma, the most common form of eye cancer, often spreads to the liver. The uvea is the middle layer of the eye, including the iris.
Phys.org / Protein shape mapping could detect diseases before symptoms appear
A University of Mississippi professor and his team have developed a technology that may one day lead to the early diagnosis of juvenile diabetes and CTE caused by traumatic brain injuries. The technology allows researchers ...
Medical Xpress / Blood pressure swings over 24 hours tied to poorer brain health
Frequent changes in blood pressure could affect cognitive health and contribute to brain changes associated with dementia risk, according to new research from Monash University.
Medical Xpress / AI-guided drug search flags folic acid for diabetic wound healing
Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed an AI-guided workflow that combines artificial intelligence (AI) with molecular simulations to identify potential drug candidates for diabetic wound ...
Medical Xpress / Parkinson's symptoms trace to distinct brain circuits
Parkinson's disease is often treated as a single disorder. But for the more than 1.1 million people living with it in the United States, the disease can look different from one person to the next. Research from Carnegie Mellon ...
