Young children who spend more time on screen-based activities and less time talking with adults tend to have weaker language skills, according to a recent study from the University of Tartu. The findings highlight that daily ...
Medical Xpress / How to remove a metabolic tattoo: Scientists find protective mechanism in T cell purine pathways
While modern life includes many conveniences, humans are still incessantly exposed to a variety of metabolic stresses we have never experienced before. Our immune systems are constantly trying to protect us, and CD8⁺ T cells ...
Phys.org / AI algorithm identifies cells across diverse biological images, cutting hours of manual labeling
Imaging is a critical technique in biology—from identifying cancerous cells in biopsies to observing how immune cells like macrophages hunt down and destroy pathogens. Traditionally, distinguishing and labeling individual ...
Phys.org / Astronomers reveal always-changing multi-planet system
Astronomers at The University of New Mexico have published new research confirming three bodies orbiting the dynamic exoplanet system TOI-201. They include a super-Earth (TOI-201 d), a warm Jupiter (TOI-201 b), and a brown ...
Medical Xpress / Your phone already sees the warning signs: Sleep, movement and mood data can spot depression early
Depression is among the most widespread mental health disorders worldwide, affecting an estimated 1 in 20 people. It is characterized by persistent sadness, hopelessness, disrupted sleep patterns, changes in appetite and ...
Phys.org / Tiny structural shift leads to big leap in solar fuel
Researchers have uncovered that an orthogonal molecular architecture directs the formation of a rare double-cable structure, offering a new blueprint for advancing the fundamental design of energy-active materials. By guiding ...
Phys.org / Why so many mollusks sound Greek—their naming evolves at a snail's pace
"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet," said Juliet Capulet in William Shakespeare's famous play. And the same is presumably true for mollusks, albeit with different odors. When you think about the scientific names ...
