Medical Xpress / FDA approves Auvelity for Alzheimer's disease-related agitation
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the expanded use of Axsome Therapeutics' Auvelity (dextromethorphan hydrobromide and bupropion hydrochloride) extended-release tablets to treat adults with agitation associated ...
Medical Xpress / Scientists finally see inside the 'black box' of depression treatment
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive, FDA-approved therapy that uses brief magnetic pulses to treat depression, particularly in patients who do not respond to medication. Yet scientists have long struggled ...
Phys.org / LED light unlocks 3D optical fingerprints inside materials without lasers
Researchers have developed, for the first time in the world, incoherent dielectric tensor tomography (iDTT), a technology that can read complex three-dimensional optical fingerprints inside materials using only everyday LED ...
Phys.org / Thawing Arctic soil awakens only half of soil microbes, new study reveals
As the Arctic warms at an unprecedented rate, frozen soils that have remained locked in ice for most of the year are now thawing for longer periods. Yet new research led by an international team including scientists from ...
Phys.org / Team steers electron spin ballistically in graphene
Researchers at The University of Manchester's National Graphene Institute have shown that electrons in ultra-clean graphene can be steered with high precision while keeping their spin information intact, a key requirement ...
