Medical Xpress / Deep learning model enables accurate and scalable drug-drug interaction prediction
Managing complex medical conditions often requires the simultaneous use of multiple different drugs, referred to as polypharmacy. While necessary, this significantly increases the risk of drug-drug interactions (DDIs), which ...
Tech Xplore / Sneaker-sized 'Electronic Dolphin' robot could transform oil spill cleanup
RMIT University engineers in Australia have built a remote-controlled minibot that hoovers up oil spills using an innovative filtering system inspired by sea urchins. Oil spills are still a serious problem around the world. ...
Phys.org / Unlocking the hidden pocket on a billion‑dollar drug target
For years, a protein inside our cells has quietly powered billions of dollars' worth of cancer drugs. Now a team of researchers have discovered that this workhorse protein, called cereblon, in addition to its known functions, ...
Medical Xpress / 16-year study finds major health burden in single‑ventricle heart disease
Children born with single-ventricle heart disease, a rare and serious heart defect, often undergo multiple surgeries in their first years of life. A new study shows the challenges for these children can last well into adolescence ...
Medical Xpress / Q&A: How small steps can help GLP-1 users build healthier habits
A Stanford study shows simple digital prompts can motivate people taking GLP-1 medications to make lifestyle changes. It's a simple premise: What if something as small as a digital nudge could put someone on the path to healthier ...
Phys.org / A superradiant clock phase emerges when Rydberg atoms meet quantum light, simulations suggest
Rydberg atoms are atoms with one or more outer electrons excited to very high energy levels, which interact very strongly with each other. These atoms are widely used to run quantum simulations and develop quantum technologies, ...
Medical Xpress / In former college athletes, more concussions associated with worse brain health
In former college athletes, having had three or more concussions was associated with slightly worse physical, mental, behavioral and cognitive health five years after graduation, according to an article published March 11, ...
Phys.org / Key protein SYFO2 enables 'self-fertilization' of leguminous plants
Most plants allow fungal microorganisms to enter their root cells and provide them with carbohydrates in exchange for a better supply of nutrients and water. Only leguminous plants like peas, beans, and clover enter into ...
Phys.org / Many scientists now use AI but fail to disclose it, study finds
When scientists employ generative AI tools like ChatGPT to help with tasks such as editing and translation for their academic writing, many journals now ask them to disclose this assistance. The rules are intended to maintain ...
Tech Xplore / New 'negative light' technology hides data transfers in plain sight
Engineers at UNSW Sydney and Monash have developed an innovative way of sending hidden information that's hard to intercept. Using a phenomenon known as "negative luminescence," the system works by making signals blend perfectly ...
Phys.org / Pathogenic virus infects and structurally reorganizes human cells, finds new study
Orthohantaviruses, such as the Puumala virus, are widespread in Europe, causing flu-like illnesses and severe kidney damage in those infected. It is increasingly considered a zoonotic threat. Researchers from the Medical ...
Medical Xpress / Researchers find that prep phase is most vital to accurate three-point shooting in basketball
To be an excellent three-point shooter, you can be Stephen Curry. Or failing that, you can rely on sound biomechanics in the preparatory phase of a shooting motion from behind the arc. New research from the University of ...
