Tech Xplore / High-entropy design achieves 3-fold increase in hydrogen production
While mixing materials typically leads to instability, there exists a phenomenon known as high entropy, where increasing compositional complexity can actually enhance stability. KAIST researchers have leveraged this principle ...
Phys.org / Ocean protections clash with mining pressure in Indonesia's most diverse marine ecosystem
There is an explosion of color beneath the surface in Raja Ampat, a remote archipelago in eastern Indonesia where sharks, mantas and sea turtles glide alongside vast schools of fish through sea fan coral formations, some ...
Tech Xplore / A new way to deliver faster, greener wireless connections indoors
Modern life depends on fast and reliable wireless connections. Video calls, streaming services, virtual reality, and smart devices all place growing demands on networks that already serve billions of users. Most wireless ...
Phys.org / New Hampshire ski industry concerned about climate change
New research out of the University of New Hampshire reveals that the majority of New Hampshire ski industry professionals are concerned about the effects of global warming on the ski industry, which generates close to $278.8 ...
Medical Xpress / AI-powered portable sensor enables rapid and multiplexed cardiac biomarker testing
Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for nearly 20 million deaths each year. Rapid diagnosis and risk assessment of cardiac injury are therefore essential for improving patient outcomes.
Phys.org / Body size, lifespan and mobility can help predict which species are most threatened as planet changes
How can we predict species' responses to always-arising changes in our world? A long-term ecological study from Yokohama National University researchers suggests the answer may lie in a few small simple biological traits. ...
Phys.org / Microscopic mechanism of 'quantum collapse' in real-world environments uncovered for the first time
A research team has, for the first time in the world, elucidated the microscopic mechanism by which quantum order is lost and collapses in "open quantum environments" existing in nature. Since perfectly isolated quantum systems ...
Medical Xpress / AI model links mental health to type 2 diabetes
A new study using an advanced "digital twin" artificial intelligence model has found that factors such as loneliness, insomnia and poor mental health substantially raise a person's future risk of developing type 2 diabetes. ...
Phys.org / Robotic floats uncover hidden ocean chemistry in low-oxygen zones
Scientists have found a new way to detect subtle chemical signatures in seawater, revealing previously invisible details about the ocean's chemistry from data continuously collected by thousands of autonomous robotic floats ...
Medical Xpress / Scientists test new ways to regrow joints damaged by arthritis
Good news: Scientists may be closer to a new way to treat arthritis.
Medical Xpress / Flu treatment shields lungs, cuts pneumonia risk
A new flu treatment could drastically reduce one of flu's deadliest complications—bacterial pneumonia—by helping the lungs defend themselves, rather than targeting the virus directly. Influenza specialist Associate Professor ...
Medical Xpress / AI outperforms doctors at summarizing complex cancer pathology reports
AI models can generate more complete summaries of complex cancer pathology reports than physicians, according to a new Northwestern Medicine study that tested six models developed by Meta, Google, DeepSeek and Mistral AI.
