Tech Xplore / Scientists use textile ash to create extremely strong cement
Researchers at Kaunas University of Technology (KTU) are developing new ways to turn textile waste into energy and high-performance cement materials, offering sustainable solutions for two resource-intensive sectors—textiles ...
Medical Xpress / Sequencing method can analyze millions of T cells at a fraction of the cost
Studying T cells, the immune cells most responsible for responding to infections and cancers, just received a significant boost in the form of a new technique from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. While T-cell analysis ...
Phys.org / Sudden oak death pathogen detected for the first time in Minnesota nursery
University of Minnesota researchers detected the pathogen that causes sudden oak death in Minnesota for the first time. Sudden oak death is a tree disease that has devastated forests on the West Coast for decades and is expanding ...
Medical Xpress / Grant funding disruptions affect one in 30 clinical trials
Grant funding disruptions affected about one in 30 trials, according to a research letter published online Nov. 17 in JAMA Internal Medicine.
Phys.org / Lab-grown diamond coatings shown to prevent mineral scale in industrial pipes
In industrial pipes, mineral deposits build up the way limescale collects inside a kettle ⎯ only on a far larger and more expensive scale. Mineral scaling is a major issue in water and energy systems, where it slows flow, ...
Tech Xplore / AI decodes pianists' muscle activity via video
AI and human-movement research intersect in a study that enables precise estimation of hand muscle activity from standard video recordings. Using a deep-learning framework trained on a large, comprehensive multimodal dataset ...
Phys.org / Ancient rubbish shows how early farmers learned to live with waste
A new archaeological project aims to shed light on how Neolithic rubbish could help understand how Europe's first farmers adapted to a more settled way of life.
Medical Xpress / Nasal nanomedicine delivers immune-boosting therapy to fight brain tumors
Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, along with collaborators at Northwestern University, have developed a noninvasive approach to treat one of the most aggressive and deadly brain cancers. ...
Medical Xpress / 'Zap-and-freeze' technique successfully used to watch human brain cell communication
Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they have used a "zap-and-freeze" technology to watch hard-to-see brain cell communications in living brain tissue from mice and humans.
Phys.org / South Korea's largest satellite launched on Nuri rocket in ambitious space mission
South Korea launched its largest satellite yet on its nationally developed space rocket early Thursday in the fourth of six launches planned through 2027.
Medical Xpress / Automated system enables real-time malignancy grading of prostate tumors
The precise identification of tumor boundaries during radical prostatectomy remains a major clinical challenge. As positive surgical margins occur in 15–40% of prostate cancer cases, the risk of postoperative recurrence ...
Phys.org / Metasurfaces etched into 2D crystals boost nonlinear optical effects at nanoscale
In January, a team led by Jim Schuck, professor of mechanical engineering at Columbia Engineering, developed a method for creating entangled photon pairs, a critical component of emerging quantum technologies, using a crystalline ...
