Phys.org / Black holes from stellar to supermassive size may follow one jet-launching rule
An early-career Western Australian astrophysicist has helped uncover a universal rule behind one of the most powerful behaviors in the universe: when black holes launch jets. The discovery, published in the journal Nature ...
Medical Xpress / New guidance puts diabetes distress assessment alongside glucose care for adults
The European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) has published its first evidence-based clinical practice guideline, focussing on the assessment and management of diabetes distress in adults with type 1 diabetes ...
Medical Xpress / Smooth-gradient fMRI technique could improve brain mapping during behavior
Neuroscientists and medical researchers now have a wide range of imaging techniques to study the brain and its activity. One of the most widely used is functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), a noninvasive technique ...
Tech Xplore / Autopilot drone maps zigzag routes to clear moss from sloping roofs
Drones have many uses in surveillance and surveying, industrial inspection, aerial photography and filmmaking, package delivery and even dynamic light shows. Their fundamental ability to carry cameras, sensors and other equipment ...
Phys.org / European ash pangenome could help researchers breed a generation of trees resistant to ash dieback
In a study published in the journal Nature Communications, researchers from the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Forest Research and collaborating organizations present the first-ever European ash (Fraxinus excelsior) pangenome, ...
Medical Xpress / Teaching the immune system to control HIV
There is no cure for HIV. While scientists have made considerable progress in controlling the infection, patients still must take daily antiretroviral medication for the rest of their lives. Results from a clinical trial ...
Phys.org / Amazonian study identifies most effective ways of conserving biodiversity and carbon
As the 2026 El Niño intensifies across the Amazon, new research highlights the urgent need to better protect the region's remaining forests from disturbances.
Phys.org / What ancient Mars rocks reveal about its buried carbonate stores
Carbonate minerals are among the best records of past liquid water on Mars: They form when water carrying dissolved carbon dioxide reacts with rock, and their composition reflects the chemistry of both. Yet Mars has surprisingly ...
Phys.org / Threatened bumblebee populations in England and Wales face severe genetic declines
A new study reveals that an important pollinator is rapidly losing genetic diversity in Britain. Moss carder bumblebees were once widespread across the UK, living in flower-rich meadows, marshes and heathlands, where they ...
Phys.org / Capybaras in the desert? Fossil casts doubt on Atacama as world's oldest continuously dry region
Ask any zoo-goer and they will tell you that capybaras are adorable. Ask a scientist specializing in the rodents, which resemble oversized guinea pigs, and they will tell you they are obligate semiaquatic herbivores that ...
Medical Xpress / Rare inherited EGFR mutation linked to dramatically increased lung cancer risk
A rare inherited mutation in the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) gene is associated with a 25-fold increased risk of lung cancer, according to a study by investigators at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and 23andMe Research ...
Phys.org / Developing new asymmetric catalytic reactions for the synthesis of complex molecules
Do Hyun Ryu's research team in the Department of Chemistry at Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU) has developed two new asymmetric catalytic methods for the precise synthesis of complex molecules using chiral organic catalysts.
