A team of international scientists led by Dr. Ariel Malinsky-Buller, together with Ph.D. students David Nora, Ioannis Oikonomou and Dominik Rogall from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, has uncovered new insights into the ...
Medical Xpress / 'Cellular behavioromics' reveals how immune cells swarm during sepsis
Despite the best efforts of intensive care unit (ICU) staff and physicians and the most advanced life support, Dr. Bryan Yipp, witnesses many deaths in the ICU attributed to sepsis. "Sepsis is the body's overwhelming immune ...
Phys.org / New radio-burst method helps locate universe's missing ordinary matter
Stars and galaxies make up much of the universe's ordinary, observable matter. But for decades, scientists have wrestled with a cosmic conflict: There should be much more.
Phys.org / Sleeping sickness parasite reveals enzyme weak spot that could guide safer drugs
African sleeping sickness and related diseases can be treated only with toxic and sometimes ineffective drugs. Now, University of Connecticut researchers show in Nucleic Acids Research that a crucial enzyme could be the key ...
Phys.org / Open-source AI predicts key peptide traits before costly lab testing
Penn Engineers have developed PeptiVerse, an AI-powered platform that predicts key chemical and biological properties of peptides, strings of amino acids whose medical potential has been demonstrated by the success of GLP-1 ...
Tech Xplore / Two million cars with anti-theft systems installed by dealers are at higher risk of theft
At least 2.2 million cars on the road today are vulnerable to an attack that allows thieves to lock and unlock doors and immobilize vehicle engines remotely via a Bluetooth connection, computer scientists at the University ...
Tech Xplore / Soft exosuit shows motor-free path to wearable walking assistance
Researchers in China have unveiled a new robotic exosuit driven entirely by soft artificial muscles instead of traditional motors. This technology could make it easier for older adults, injured patients or factory workers ...
Phys.org / Universal patterns govern global fertility decline
By examining 200 years of demographic data from 237 countries and territories, Kenji Itao, of the RIKEN Center for Brain Science in Japan, discovered that universal mathematical laws describe how fertility declines as societies ...
