Phys.org / Metagenomics and AI could unlock uncultivated bacteria and archaea
Advances in DNA sequencing have expanded our view of the microbial world, but the inability to cultivate most microbes has been a major constraint. Now, a systematic, predictive framework that combines existing genomic and ...
Phys.org / Hidden proton pathways emerge as ultrathin polymer film method splits interface signals
Understanding how protons move at the interface between polymers and electrode materials is essential for improving fuel cells and related energy devices. However, conventional impedance measurements under inert conditions ...
Tech Xplore / Hybrid AI architecture could turn neuromorphic systems into reliable discovery machines
The artificial intelligence (AI) machines that guide the world can be grouped into three main categories: inference machines, learning machines and discovery machines. Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis are ...
Phys.org / How carbon dioxide cools the upper atmosphere—and warms Earth below
Even as temperatures rise on Earth's surface and in the lower atmosphere, the planet's upper atmosphere has cooled dramatically. This paradoxical pattern is a well-known sign of humanity's climate impacts—but until now, the ...
Medical Xpress / Scientists discover hidden switch in immune cells that helps the body kill deadly fungus
Scientists at the University of East Anglia (UK) have contributed to discovering a "control switch" inside our immune cells that helps the body destroy dangerous fungal infections. Researchers found that a protein called ...
Phys.org / Shark face study uncovers 400-million-year-old blueprint shared across jawed vertebrates
Most of what scientists know about face development comes from studies in bony vertebrates such as mice, chickens, and zebrafish. However, their evolutionary counterparts, cartilaginous fishes, have remained largely unexplored. ...
Phys.org / Algal bloom crisis shows climate risks need evaluative governance
Identifying and analyzing climate risks is a necessary function of governments, but researchers at Adelaide University's Environment Institute argue such processes will not lead to effective action without taking additional ...
Phys.org / 'Elegant triangle' experiment suggests quantum internet may be closer than we think
For more than 60 years, Bell's theorem has been the gold standard for demonstrating that quantum mechanics defies the rules of classical physics. Now, an international team of researchers, including Constructor University ...
Phys.org / Inland seas may face widespread heat waves by midcentury as warming accelerates
Under the lead of the Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research Warnemünde (IOW), climate simulations were used to investigate how 19 inland seas, including the Baltic Sea, are responding to climate change. The researchers ...
Medical Xpress / A common mutation linked to autoimmune diseases may protect people from viral infections
New research from the University of Kansas shows a "risk gene" linked to higher odds of developing autoimmune diseases such as diabetes or lupus may also provide a survival advantage fighting viral infections like coronavirus. ...
Medical Xpress / Obesity-linked fat molecule may speed Alzheimer's by disrupting brain lipids
A new study offers fresh insight into Alzheimer's disease by looking beyond the brain and focusing on metabolic health, particularly obesity. The Houston Methodist-led study moves beyond the traditional view of obesity as ...
Tech Xplore / People struggle to recall whether content came from AI, with labels forgotten after one week
From August 2026, an EU-wide AI regulation will come into force requiring the labeling of AI-generated content. However, a research team from the University of Bayreuth and Aalto University in Helsinki, Finland, has found ...
