Phys.org / Quantum key distribution enables secure communication via hybrid and mobile channels
As part of the QuNET project, researchers have demonstrated how quantum key distribution works reliably via hybrid and mobile channels. The results are milestones for sovereign, quantum-secured communication in Germany and ...
Phys.org / Stick–slip nanopore approach streamlines protein analysis by using electrical 'fingerprints'
A technology developed in the laboratory of Prof. Amit Meller from the Technion—Israel Institute of Technology Faculty of Biomedical Engineering marks a significant advancement toward rapid proteome analysis, with far-reaching ...
Phys.org / Interpretable machine learning to accelerate nanocatalyst discovery
A fast and accurate surrogate model screens over 10,000 possible metal-oxide supports for a platinum nanocatalyst to prevent sintering under high temperatures.
Medical Xpress / Prefrontal cortex reaches back into the brain to shape how other regions function, study reveals
Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published in Neuron, finds in mice that, via specific circuits, the brain's executive control center, ...
Phys.org / Seal milk more refined than breast milk, research reveals
Researchers at the University of Gothenburg have discovered that milk from gray seals in the Atlantic Ocean may be more potent than breast milk. An analysis of seal milk found approximately 33% more sugar molecules than in ...
Medical Xpress / Too sick to socialize: How the brain and immune system promote staying in bed
"I just can't make it tonight. You have fun without me." Across much of the animal kingdom, when infection strikes, social contact shuts down. A new study details how the immune and central nervous systems implement this ...
Phys.org / Urban fringe areas show great potential for forest restoration
A study conducted at the University of São Paulo (USP) by researchers from the Nucleus of Analysis and Synthesis of Nature-Based Solutions (BIOTA Synthesis), a FAPESP Science Center for Development (SCD), identified approximately ...
Phys.org / Chang'e-6's far-side lunar samples show strongly cohesive behavior
Lunar samples serve as a critical link between orbital remote sensing and ground-truth measurements. Previous sample-return missions—Apollo, Luna, and Chang'e-5—have collectively brought back approximately 383 kilograms ...
Medical Xpress / Musicians drift less in blindfolded walk: Could musical training be utilized in cognitive rehabilitation?
A multi-institutional team of researchers led by Université de Montréal report that extensive musical training can steady the body in space, both with and without guiding sounds, during a blindfolded stepping test.
Phys.org / Vampires in the deep: An ancient link between octopuses and squids
Researchers from the University of Vienna (Austria), National Institute of Technology—Wakayama College (NITW; Japan), and Shimane University (Japan) present the largest cephalopod genome sequenced to date. Their analyses, ...
Tech Xplore / The world's most efficient solar cell: Chinese researchers explain how they designed and built it
Earlier in 2025, Chinese solar manufacturer Longi announced it had built the world's most efficient solar cell. The hybrid interdigitated back-contact (HIBC) cell achieved 27.81% efficiency, which was verified by Germany's ...
Phys.org / Looping long-necked dinosaur site reveals its secrets
An analysis of a unique looping trail of ancient footprints in the United States reveals the dinosaur which made it may have been limping.
