Phys.org / Stick–slip nanopore approach streamlines protein analysis by using electrical 'fingerprints'
A technology developed in the laboratory of Prof. Amit Meller from the Technion—Israel Institute of Technology Faculty of Biomedical Engineering marks a significant advancement toward rapid proteome analysis, with far-reaching ...
Medical Xpress / An fMRI marker of Alzheimer's-related cognitive decline
Researchers at Université Savoie Mont Blanc, Radboud University and the University of Oxford's Wellcome Center for Integrative Neuroimaging, report that attenuation of the brain's intrinsic anticorrelation between the default ...
Phys.org / Anomalous electronic state opens pathway to room-temperature superconductivity
Superconductive materials can conduct electricity with no resistance, but typically only at very low temperatures. Realizing superconductivity at room temperature could enable advanced, energy-efficient electronics and other ...
Medical Xpress / Deep learning model has identified imaging biomarker for chronic stress
A deep learning model has identified an imaging biomarker of chronic stress, according to a study to be presented at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America, being held from Nov. 30 to Dec. 4 in Chicago.
Medical Xpress / The cancer blood test making waves, and what the numbers really show
Progress in cutting the global toll of cancer remains painfully slow, but a new blood test has sparked unusual levels of hope. Researchers say it could one day make routine screening far more effective by catching cancers ...
Medical Xpress / Prefrontal cortex reaches back into the brain to shape how other regions function, study reveals
Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published in Neuron, finds in mice that, via specific circuits, the brain's executive control center, ...
Medical Xpress / Too sick to socialize: How the brain and immune system promote staying in bed
"I just can't make it tonight. You have fun without me." Across much of the animal kingdom, when infection strikes, social contact shuts down. A new study details how the immune and central nervous systems implement this ...
Phys.org / Are calorie labels on menus worth it? New eye-tracking study reveals hidden patterns
Calorie labels on menus are meant to help people make healthier choices when eating out. However, calorie information only influences people who are already actively trying to lose weight, according to a new study from the ...
Phys.org / Impacts of colonization on dingoes are 'written in their bones,' new research finds
Dingoes are no ordinary dogs. They trace their roots back to an ancient Asian lineage and made their way to Australia more than 3,500 years ago.
Phys.org / How to turn water into wine, with raisins
It's astonishing to realize how innovative our ancestors were in food and beverage production before modern science and technology. Without understanding or isolating them, ancient peoples made use of yeasts like Saccharomyces ...
Phys.org / Consciousness as the foundation: New theory addresses nature of reality
Consciousness is fundamental; only thereafter do time, space and matter arise. This is the starting point for a new theoretical model of the nature of reality, presented by Maria Strømme, Professor of Materials Science at ...
Medical Xpress / 3D map sheds light on why tendons are prone to injury
Scientists at the University of Portsmouth have created the first detailed 3D map of how a crucial piece of connective tissue in our bodies responds to the stresses of movement and exercise. This tissue, called calcified ...
