Phys.org / 2D material offers a solution to long-standing obstacle in diamond-based circuits
Beyond their sparkle, diamonds have hidden talents. They shed heat better than any material, tolerate extreme temperatures and radiation, and handle high voltages while wasting almost no electricity—ideal traits for compact, ...
Phys.org / The art of custom-intercalating 42 metals into layered titanates
A research team affiliated with UNIST has reported a novel synthesis strategy that enables the direct intercalation of a wide range of metal cations into the interlayer spaces of layered titanate (LT) structures. This approach ...
Phys.org / Light-controlled switches offer precise regulation of ion channels in living cells
Researchers at Leipzig University and TU Dresden have succeeded in developing biological switches that can selectively turn ion channels on and off using light pulses. Initial applications show that it is possible, for example, ...
Tech Xplore / Stress-testing AI vision systems: Rethinking how adversarial images are generated
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have become a cornerstone of modern AI technology, driving a thriving field of research in image-related tasks. These systems have found applications in medical diagnosis, automated data processing, ...
Phys.org / Multiwavelength variability reveals dust structure in quasars
A research team has investigated quasar variability by tracking optical to mid-infrared (MIR) wavelengths of variability information. This multiband joint analysis provides an opportunity to probe the dust structure in the ...
Medical Xpress / Uncovering cancer's hidden oncRNA signatures: From discovery to liquid biopsy
After being described in 2018, researchers knew they had something interesting with T3p, a single small RNA found in breast cancer but absent from normal tissue. The molecule took the team on a six-year journey to systematically ...
Medical Xpress / CAR T cells with boosted BACH2 protein can fight cancer more effectively
UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have discovered that increasing the levels of a protein called BACH2 makes engineered cancer-fighting immune cells behave more like stem cells, improving their therapeutic effectiveness. ...
Phys.org / Reading how to be male: Boys' literature reflects the rise of aggressive masculinity
There's growing concern about the rise of harmful and aggressive forms of masculinity, whether at home, in schools or in public spaces.
Phys.org / Why does it feel like dangerous ocean creatures are ruining Australia's summer?
In the same week that New South Wales experienced four shark attacks, Victorian beachgoers were warned about stinging jellyfish.
Medical Xpress / Predicting microbubble distribution for blood-brain barrier opening
A clinical study shows that preoperative dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can help predict how microbubbles will distribute in the human brain. This is a key step toward optimizing ...
Phys.org / New drug delivery mechanism could aid breast cancer treatment
In a study published in the Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, scientists from the UF Health Cancer Institute have found a way to make treatment for a notoriously aggressive breast cancer more effective. Using a delivery ...
Medical Xpress / Tiny molecules called tRNA halves may contribute to prostate cancer cell growth
Prostate cancer is the second-most common cancer in men. A new study from Thomas Jefferson University uncovered a new potential therapeutic target in tiny molecules called tRNA halves.
