Phys.org / Unlocking the cell's 'gatekeeper': Researchers discover critical RNA quality-control factor, LENG8
How do cells ensure that the "blueprints" of genetic information-RNA are accurate and intact before they are exported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm for protein production? A study led by Professor Yongsheng Shi's team ...
Tech Xplore / Brain-inspired AI hardware helps autonomous devices operate efficiently and independently
The human brain constantly makes decisions. It requires minimal power to move bodies in a desired direction or avoid an object. A Purdue University engineer uses the brain's efficiency as inspiration to help autonomous vehicles, ...
Tech Xplore / Integrated strategy unlocks 29.76% efficiency for all-perovskite tandem solar cells
Two stacked layers comprise tandem solar cells (TSCs), with each subcell absorbing different wavelengths of sunlight, which makes TSCs more efficient than single-layer solar cells. All-perovskite TSCs hold great promise for ...
Tech Xplore / Perovskite solar cells achieve over 25% efficiency and long lifespan simultaneously
A KAIST research team has solved the "solar cell dilemma," in which increasing efficiency shortens lifespan, while extending lifespan lowers efficiency. The team developed a technology to precisely control the internal structure ...
Phys.org / Why student samples can mislead: Higher education may shift values toward Western norms
A new study published in Nature Communications finds that worldwide, people with higher levels of education are more culturally similar to those in Canada, the U.S., U.K., and other Anglo, industrialized countries and countries ...
Medical Xpress / Population-based lung cancer screening can reduce mortality in people who have never smoked, study shows
New evidence from a Chinese cohort presented at the European Lung Cancer Congress (ELCC) 2026 shows that one-time low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening can significantly reduce lung cancer mortality in a non–risk ...
Tech Xplore / Can AI understand literature? Researchers put it to the test
Even with all the recent advances in the ability of large language models (like ChatGPT) to help us think, research, summarize, and learn complex and technical texts, how do they fare in understanding storytelling and literature? ...
Medical Xpress / Strong patient diversity in biobanks reveals new genetic links to disease risk and treatment response
A new study by UCLA Health published in Cell presents a major advancement in the future of personalized medicine by pinpointing new connections between people's genes, disease risk and medicine response by using a clinically ...
Medical Xpress / A new view of intestinal regeneration: What fetal reversion could mean for IBD and cancer
Dynamic switching between revival stem cells and conventional intestinal stem cells enables efficient tissue repair without exhausting the stem cell pool, report researchers from Institute of Science Tokyo. Using organoid ...
Tech Xplore / Alive or not? Tiny 3D-printed robots that swim and navigate just like animals
Leiden researchers Professor Daniela Kraft and Mengshi Wei have created microscopic robots that move without sensors, software, or external control. Instead, their behavior emerges entirely from their shape and the way they ...
Phys.org / Unraveling active magma by drilling in the heart of volcanoes
Although volcanic eruptions are spectacular natural events that occur around the world every day, most volcanoes spend the majority of their time not erupting. To accurately forecast volcanic activity, it's important to characterize ...
Medical Xpress / Hidden 'resilience window' found in human brain one hour after stress
Psychological resilience is often misunderstood as simple "toughness" or an insensitivity to stress. However, true resilience is the brain's capacity to adapt and recover after a stressful event. Researchers from the Kochi ...
