Medical Xpress / Infants make nuanced moral character judgments as early as 12 months old
Psychologists at the University of Toronto have found that we begin to make moral character judgments as early as 12 months old. The research, published in Communications Psychology, also recognizes that individuals can exist ...
Phys.org / 'Ruthless predator' of red tide plankton reveals unusual bioluminescence
Scientists at UC San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography have uncovered new insights into the bioluminescence of a unique species of marine plankton that feeds on other plankton, including the harmful algae responsible ...
Phys.org / Scientists leverage AI to optimize glass formulas for liquid radioactive waste
Scientists have used the power of AI to analyze and predict the conversion of liquid radioactive waste into solid glass waste forms, increasing the amount of waste that goes into each container of glass produced and reducing ...
Medical Xpress / Methamphetamine use linked to 1 in 6 heart attacks in California study
Methamphetamine (meth) use accounted for nearly 15% of heart attacks for a decade in a northern California study, published today in JAHA.
Phys.org / No brain required: This is how the single-celled Stentor learns
Scientists have known for more than a century that a single-celled organism with no nerve cells—much less a brain—can behave in ways that resemble learning. But those observations only went so far. How the organism did that ...
Science X / Superconductivity that shouldn't exist: Physicists dissect the mind-boggling properties of a strange quantum material
The material UTe2 exhibits multiple forms of zero electrical resistance—a phenomenon known as superconductivity—and displays several puzzling properties. After UTe2 loses its superconductivity at a certain magnetic field, ...
Medical Xpress / Rethinking mRNA vaccines: Liver targeting can suppress immunity, while muscle boosts it
A new study by researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai overturns a longstanding assumption about how mRNA vaccines generate immunity, revealing that certain non-immune cells help determine vaccine effectiveness.
Medical Xpress / Not all organs age alike: AI unveils the molecular impact of menopause across the female body
Despite affecting half of the world's population, menopause has historically been understudied and misunderstood, both in biomedical research and clinical practice. However, with the increase in life expectancy, the number ...
