Medical Xpress / Healthy aging shaped by more varied biology than previously thought
Molecular changes in aging are far more unique than previously thought, meaning two healthy individuals of identical age can experience significantly different aging journeys.
Phys.org / Germany's Isar Aerospace launches rocket into orbit from Norway
Germany's Isar Aerospace launched a rocket into orbit from Norway on Saturday as Europe races to boost its ability to economically send satellites into space independently of the United States.
Phys.org / Mammalian genes can combine to make previously unknown mRNAs and proteins
For decades, scientists have understood that each of the roughly 20,000 genes in the human body carries instructions for a single kind of protein. Now, researchers at Harvard Medical School have discovered that instructions ...
Phys.org / Quantum-optical spin glass could improve how AI remembers and learns
A new study has demonstrated that it is possible to make a network of atoms and photons that could improve how artificial intelligence stores and recalls memories. This network, called a quantum-optical spin glass, works ...
Phys.org / Newly discovered 1666 manuscript may trace four-lens telescope experiments to Galileo
A potentially history-altering finding by a University of Limerick researcher may provide the most detailed technical analysis of a telescope demonstrably made by the famous astronomer and scientist Galileo Galilei.
Tech Xplore / 'Safe query space' lets AI fix SQL errors without starting over
"Find the best-selling product from last year." When an AI system attempts to answer a question like this by querying a company database, even a single reference to a nonexistent item can cause the query to fail. Until now, ...
Phys.org / A child's first 5 years set them up for life. African study explores how to target education spending
The first five years of life lay an important foundation for children's future schooling, health and earnings. Yet over 77% of children in sub-Saharan Africa don't have access to early childhood care and education. This places ...
Medical Xpress / Borderline low hemoglobin levels, usually considered normal, linked to a higher risk of death
A prospective cohort study found that adults whose hemoglobin levels were 1 to 3 g/dL above the World Health Organization's (WHO) current anemia thresholds had lower mortality compared with those whose hemoglobin levels were ...
Phys.org / 'Hidden order in disorder' makes nanodevices easier to design
Augmented reality (AR) glasses, lenses thinner than a human hair, and holograms floating above your fingertips may sound like technologies from science fiction. At the heart of these emerging technologies, however, lies a ...
Phys.org / AI-driven polymer discovery could replace years of trial and error with closed-loop testing
In the realm of materials science, there is a plethora of datasets and tools at our disposal—the issue is how to effectively use these resources in harmony. Researchers at the Advanced Institute for Materials Research (WPI-AIMR), ...
Phys.org / Port Hills research reveals 'fire trap' risk from non-native grass
New research from Te Whare Wānanga o Waitaha | University of Canterbury (UC) examining the aftermath of the February 2024 Port Hills wildfire found that some young native trees and shrubs were able to resprout after being ...
Phys.org / How algorithms are making our environments bland
The Pantone color of the year for 2026 is white. It's called Cloud Dancer, which is described as a "lofty white." This choice reflects a growing trend away from color in our visual world.
