Phys.org / Truffles are on the menu for threatened marsupials returning to a World Heritage area
A new study from Edith Cowan University (ECU) confirms that the presence of fungal food resources is important for supporting the reintroduction of two threatened marsupials to the Shark Bay World Heritage area, which could ...
Medical Xpress / Latest evidence on risk factors, early intervention, and strategies to prevent heart failure before symptoms develop
Heart failure already affects more than 60 million people worldwide and is one of the leading causes of hospitalization among people 65 and older. Although it is commonly associated with advanced cardiovascular disease, it ...
Medical Xpress / Druggable target that makes metastatic cancer cells easier to kill identified
Researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago have identified a molecular switch that helps determine whether cancer cells remain soft and difficult to destroy or become stiff enough for the immune system to attack.
Medical Xpress / Research suggests more patients with pre-existing disabilities could benefit from thrombectomy
Patients with moderate-to-severe disabilities before a stroke are frequently excluded from endovascular thrombectomy (EVT), despite representing a substantial proportion of patients with large-vessel occlusion stroke.
Tech Xplore / Solar windows could harvest indoor light and sunlight while staying semi-transparent
Semi-transparent solar cells that could be added to windows to efficiently harvest energy from indoor light as well as the sun have been developed by an international team led by UCL researchers.
Phys.org / New radio-burst method helps locate universe's missing ordinary matter
Stars and galaxies make up much of the universe's ordinary, observable matter. But for decades, scientists have wrestled with a cosmic conflict: There should be much more.
Phys.org / AI agent helps prepare synchrotron X-ray experimental measurements, paving the way for autonomous operation
Artificial intelligence (AI) models are now used daily by many people worldwide, both for professional and personal purposes. Over the past decades, scientists specialized in various disciplines have also started using these ...
Phys.org / Satellite imagery captures the impact of large U.S. dams on river temperatures over the last decade
A team of Virginia Tech geoscientists has found a new way to examine the widespread effects of dams on river temperatures: using Landsat thermal infrared imagery to gather data on rivers across the United States. By using ...
Phys.org / Quantum sensing microscope illuminates transistor design
Artificial intelligence faces an energy crisis stemming from a physical traffic jam inside modern computer chips. Processors must continually shuffle data, such as the billions of parameters in complex models, between separate ...
Phys.org / Decades-old strains reveal Brakhagea, a budding bacterial genus with bioactive potential
Some microorganisms that hold great promise for research have long lain dormant in historical collections. But only through new methods are their diversity and potential becoming apparent. The team led by Professor Christian ...
