Tech Xplore / Some robotaxis approved to operate without steering wheels and losing the brake pedal could be next
Federal regulators are clearing the way for robotaxis to operate without manual controls like steering wheels or eventually even brake pedals as the rules start to catch up to the evolving technology.
Tech Xplore / New tool identifies the sources of fake videos
Artificial intelligence can generate videos so realistic that distinguishing them from authentic footage is becoming increasingly difficult. But a computer science team led by researchers at UC Riverside has developed a tool ...
Phys.org / 'Rivers in the sky' influence marine heat waves
Long, narrow bands of moving moisture in the sky, known as atmospheric rivers, contribute to heat waves in the marine environment, according to a new study published in Nature Communications by researchers from Duke University's ...
Tech Xplore / Computer scientists design a cyberattack to prevent cyberattacks
Protecting sensitive, precision-timed computing systems requires understanding the nature of cyberthreats. So researchers from Washington State University teamed up with experts at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs ...
Phys.org / Membrane nanostructures reshape in water, revealing route to better ion transport
Next-generation energy devices like fuel cells and water electrolyzers depend on ion-exchange membranes that allow only water and certain ions to pass through.
Medical Xpress / Trial shows specialist long COVID care may reduce fatigue
The largest clinical trial of long COVID care to date has found that specialist NHS long COVID services may help reduce fatigue, one of the condition's most common and disabling symptoms. The findings, published in Nature ...
Phys.org / Purple corn offers a stable natural alternative to artificial food dyes
University of Missouri researchers are turning a unique variety of corn into an effective natural alternative to artificial food dyes.
Phys.org / Invasive species hit the Global South significantly harder than previously assumed
Invasive alien species are among the world's leading drivers of species extinction. However, previous global assessments of the geographic distribution of this damage suffered from a systematic "research bias": Because significantly ...
Medical Xpress / FDA approves Simtriyo for treating ADHD in children and adults
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved Simtriyo (centanafadine) for the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adults and children 6 years and older weighing ≥20 kg.
Phys.org / Molecular switch that activates cell growth signaling may offer more precise route for anticancer therapy
Cells carry their own growth switches. When enough nutrients—amino acids in particular—are available, cells flip this switch on and begin to grow. Researchers at KAIST and Yonsei University have uncovered the molecular mechanism ...
Phys.org / California wildfire damage risk map uses factors most closely linked to severe property losses
By analyzing 100,000 California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection inspection records from 2013 to 2024, researchers at the University of California, Irvine have identified the key environmental and human factors ...
Phys.org / When polymers meet primitive membranes: How molecular cooperation may have helped life begin
A new study suggests that simple molecules on early Earth may have worked together to create more stable, cell-like structures, offering fresh clues about one of science's biggest questions: how life began. Led by Dr. Moran ...
