Phys.org / Silver-infused zeolite efficiently separates xenon from krypton for industrial use
An international team of researchers have found a better way to separate two rare and important gases—xenon and krypton—that are often combined in chemical, petrochemical, metallurgical, and environmental processes.
Medical Xpress / Mutant GFAP disrupts mitochondrial fission in astrocytes, offering insight into Alexander disease
Some brain disorders are straightforward, such as the direct frontal lobe assault of a concussion or traumatic brain injury. Others, like Alexander disease, are akin to guerrilla warfare. Patients suffering from this genetic ...
Medical Xpress / Antibody designed to guide immune cells against hard-to-treat cancer types
A cancer-targeting antibody that helps the body's immune cells spot and destroy hard-to-treat tumors such as triple-negative breast cancer has been developed by researchers.
Tech Xplore / Researchers develop new method for modeling complex sensor systems
A research team at Kumamoto University (Japan) has unveiled a new mathematical framework that makes it possible to accurately model systems using multiple sensors that operate at different sensing rates. This breakthrough ...
Medical Xpress / Common water pill may help HIV medicines work faster and reduce inflammation, early study suggests
An FDA‑approved medication called spironolactone, often prescribed for heart and blood pressure conditions, may be a useful add‑on to the standard HIV treatment, according to new research from the Valente lab at The Herbert ...
Phys.org / Fish protection curbs crown-of-thorns starfish outbreaks across the Great Barrier Reef
New research reveals that one of the largest-ever marine conservation initiatives has helped to prevent more frequent crown-of-thorns starfish (CoTS) outbreaks on the Great Barrier Reef.

The last supermoon of the year will shine soon in December skies.
Tech Xplore / From shoreline to skyscraper: Seashells offer a path to low-carbon concrete
A team of researchers from the University of East London (UEL) has found an unexpected solution to one of the construction industry's biggest carbon problems—and it lies on the shoreline. New findings show that discarded ...
Medical Xpress / Fatty food smells during pregnancy may raise obesity risk in offspring
A research team at the Max Planck Institute for Metabolism Research has found that the smell of fatty foods during pregnancy increases the risk of overweight and obesity in children. The researchers fed pregnant mice a healthy ...
Tech Xplore / Small changes make some AI systems more brain-like than others
Artificial intelligence systems that are designed with a biologically inspired architecture can simulate human brain activity before ever being trained on any data, according to new research from Johns Hopkins University.
Phys.org / Physicist delineates limits on the precision of quantum thermal machines
Quantum thermal machines are devices that leverage quantum mechanical effects to convert energy into useful work or cooling, similarly to traditional heat engines or refrigerators. Thermodynamics theory suggests that increasing ...
Medical Xpress / How the nervous system activates repair after spinal cord injury
After a spinal cord injury, cells in the brain and spinal cord change to cope with stress and repair tissue. A new study from Karolinska Institutet, published in Nature Neuroscience, shows that this response is controlled ...
