Australian scientists have developed an injectable therapy that helps clear blocked airways in flat-faced dogs. Melbourne-based biotechnology company Snoretox and RMIT University have shown early success using the first therapy ...
Phys.org / NASA unveils Roman telescope to map universe, find 10,000s of exoplanets
NASA unveiled a new telescope on Tuesday to scan vast swaths of the universe for planets outside our solar system and probe the mysteries of dark matter and dark energy.
Phys.org / Novel study maps changes in US immigration policy landscape since 9/11
In a comprehensive analysis of state and local sanctuary and anti-sanctuary policies, researchers have mapped the rapidly evolving legal immigration landscape in the US from 2000 to 2021. The dataset sheds light on trends ...
Phys.org / They promised climate action for years, but what these meat and dairy giants were really selling was something else
The meat and dairy industry accounts for 57% of total global food production emissions and at least 16.5% of all global greenhouse gas emissions. But the vast majority of environmental claims from the animal agricultural ...
Phys.org / Fairer disaster aid arrives just as fast with a new routing algorithm
Researchers from Koç University and international collaborators have developed a new algorithm that enables faster and more equitable distribution of disaster relief supplies. By integrating fairness directly into logistics ...
Phys.org / One blue whale song unlocks oceans of data
Trying to find a whale song in the ocean is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. But now, UNSW Sydney researchers say they've trained a model, with just a single case study, to find blue whale songs in recordings that ...
Phys.org / Plants can sense the sound of rain, new study finds
The next time you find yourself lulled by the patter of rain outside your window, think how that same sprinkle might sound if you were a tiny seed planted directly below a free-falling droplet. Would you still be similarly ...
Phys.org / Chicken gene-editing advance opens path to drug-producing eggs
Chicken eggs are already used to harvest helpful proteins called antibodies to protect humans from viruses such as influenza. Now, a breakthrough at the University of Missouri could one day lead to chickens that produce other ...
Phys.org / Scientists discover how the Twelve Apostles were formed—and their real age
Scientists at the University of Melbourne have uncovered for the first time how Australia's iconic Twelve Apostles were formed, finding tectonic plate movements over millions of years lifted and tilted the giant structures ...
Medical Xpress / A global fertility reversal is unfolding, and it could upend who becomes parent in decades ahead
With few exceptions, birth rates are falling worldwide. What does this mean? Put simply, the fertility rate describes the average number of children a woman is expected to have over the course of her life, if exposed to the ...
Phys.org / This battered Jurassic sea giant held on against the odds, and its fossil hints at an unexpected survival strategy
A fossil discovery in Mistelgau, Northern Bavaria, Germany, reveals that the last representatives of the giant ichthyosaurs of the genus Temnodontosaurus survived longer in the Southwest German Basin than previously thought. ...
Phys.org / Natural-language AI helps chemists design molecules step by step
Designing molecules is one of chemistry's most complex challenges. From life-saving drugs to advanced materials, each compound requires a precise sequence of reactions. Planning these steps demands both technical knowledge ...
