Medical Xpress / The secret to healthy aging could be hiding in skeletal muscle
The powerful role of exercise in maintaining skeletal muscle could be the key to improving health and resilience in older age, according to new research from Monash University. The new research, published on the bioRxiv preprint ...
Phys.org / Majorana modes withstand disorder in atomic chains, boosting fault-tolerant quantum computing
Quantum computers—systems that process information and perform computations by leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics—could solve some tasks faster and more effectively than classical computers. While some studies ...
Tech Xplore / How AI chatbots become better learning coaches
Many AI systems answer questions in a matter of seconds—and, in the process, often prevent people from doing exactly what learning is all about: thinking for themselves. Machine learning expert Jakub Mačina is therefore developing ...
Phys.org / JWST reveals dawn-dusk atmosphere split on ultra-hot exoplanet WASP-121 b
Astronomers have revealed distinct differences in atmospheric conditions between the morning and evening transition zones of the ultra-hot gas planet WASP-121 b, which separate day from night, commonly called terminators. ...
Phys.org / Algorithm visualizes how cells 'talk' to one another across tissue and time
People communicate with each other, sometimes face to face, sometimes with a text message or phone call. Cells also communicate with each other, sometimes by touching and sometimes by sending signals across space and time. ...
Medical Xpress / IV atorvastatin during myocardial infarction reduces myocardial damage compared to pre-infarction oral loading
Reducing the damage sustained by the heart during a myocardial infarction remains one of the major challenges in cardiology, even when the blocked coronary artery is reopened in a timely manner. Part of the myocardial injury ...
Phys.org / New iron–scandium catalyst extends carbon nanotube growth at high temperatures
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are among the most promising nanomaterials for future technologies because of their exceptional mechanical strength, electrical conductivity and thermal performance. However, translating these remarkable ...
Medical Xpress / Brain tumor map finds immune cell states that may predict meningioma recurrence
One of the most detailed maps to date of meningioma—the most common brain tumor in adults—reveals how the tumor's surrounding environment helps drive disease behavior and patient outcomes, according to new research from Mayo ...
Phys.org / Research examines how corporate workforce messaging shapes recruiting
When the Securities and Exchange Commission updated Regulation S-K in 2020 to require public companies to disclose more information about human capital in annual filings, the rule was designed primarily with investors in ...
Phys.org / Open-source FLIM Playground could speed reproducible analysis of complex cell images
Modern fluorescence microscopy can generate images of living cells as stunning to look at as they are informative to study. For techniques like fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), those images provide a window ...
Phys.org / How anti-CRISPR proteins promote the spread of hospital-acquired infections
Researchers from Skoltech—a VEB.RF group institution—and their colleagues from the U.S. and China have explained how the antibiotic resistance gene established itself in the genome of the bacterium Klebsiella pneumoniae. ...
Phys.org / AI model 'hears' Bryde's whale calls in seismic data from South China Sea
Researchers have repurposed an AI model designed for visual identification tasks to detect Bryde's whale calls contained within seismic data collected in the South China Sea. The detection system precisely identified calls ...
