Medical Xpress / Micro-bladder model offers clues to stopping recurrent UTIs
A lab-grown micro bladder may explain why urinary tract infections (UTIs) return so frequently, according to a study led by researchers at UCL, the University of Oxford and the University of Leicester.
Phys.org / Even ancient bacteria possessed intercellular communication structures like humans today, study finds
Communication between cells in plants, animals and humans takes place via specialized connecting structures. An international team led by biologists from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) and involving the University ...
Phys.org / Mixed grazing, controlled burns and collaboration can curb Mediterranean wildfire risks
Wildfires in the Mediterranean region are becoming drastically more intense. The recent major fires in France, Spain and Greece show that firefighting efforts are reaching their limits.
Medical Xpress / Runner's high study finds cannabis-like signaling molecules rise over extreme distances
A marathon, 100 kilometers (62 miles) or even 230 kilometers (143 miles) in a single effort: Anyone running such distances puts enormous strain on their body. At the same time, levels of the body's own cannabis-like signaling ...
Phys.org / AI-informed AdaptiveFlow redefines large-scale cloud computing for drug discovery
Researchers today announced AdaptiveFlow, an AI-informed platform that can virtually screen billions of drug-like molecules with a 1,000-fold reduction in computational costs over existing methods. Developed and validated ...
Medical Xpress / Decoding pet talk may help explain how pets affect our well-being
Every "good girl," every "who wants a treat," every one-sided debate with the cat—University of Arizona researchers have found a way to measure it all.
Medical Xpress / Genetic pathway offers new insight into timing of early brain development
Melbourne researchers have uncovered a critical signaling pathway that controls the timing of brain development, shedding new light on how neurodevelopmental disorders may develop. The research, led by Murdoch Children's ...
Tech Xplore / Digital brain twins hinge on what living brains reveal, not computing power alone
Researchers from the University of Warwick report that how faithfully we can build a "digital twin" of a human brain depends not only on computing power but fundamentally on how much of the living brain we can measure, validate ...
Medical Xpress / Smart walker boosts walking efficiency and dynamic balance in older adults
Researchers have evaluated a novel smart wheeled walker designed to enhance mobility and safety for aging populations. Published in JMIR Aging, the randomized crossover trial revealed that the smart wheeled walker significantly ...
Phys.org / Malaysia declares haze emergency in Sarawak state on Borneo
Malaysia declared an emergency in the Serian division of its Sarawak state on Borneo after hazardous haze from fires in neighboring Indonesia drove air pollution to critical levels, the Prime Minister's Office said.
Phys.org / New method swaps single atom in a molecule to speed drug discovery
Swapping out one letter in a word can entirely change its meaning. Similarly, swapping one atom in a molecule can completely change its identity. A group of chemists at the University of Chicago has demonstrated a new way ...
Medical Xpress / Your smartwatch may be lying to you about how many calories you burned
If you're depending on your smartwatch to tell you the truth about how many calories you burned during a workout—well, don't.
