Medical Xpress / Findings support additional lymph node evaluation to better detect lung cancer spread
Breakthrough research presented at the 2026 Society of Thoracic Surgeons Annual Meeting shows that additional lymph node evaluation is needed during surgery for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to accurately identify cancer ...
Medical Xpress / Study examines prediction of surgical risk in growing population of adults with congenital heart disease
Heart specialists at Mayo Clinic today presented new research at the 2026 Society of Thoracic Surgeons Annual Meeting that redo surgery for adults with congenital heart disease (CHD) remains high-risk, and a clinically applicable ...
Phys.org / Is time a fundamental part of reality? A quiet revolution in physics suggests not
Time feels like the most basic feature of reality. Seconds tick, days pass and everything from planetary motion to human memory seems to unfold along a single, irreversible direction. We are born and we die, in exactly that ...
Phys.org / Webb pushes boundaries of observable universe closer to Big Bang
The NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope has topped itself once again, delivering on its promise to push the boundaries of the observable universe closer to cosmic dawn with the confirmation of a bright galaxy that existed ...
Phys.org / The magnetic 'birdsong' of the smallest planet
BepiColombo is slowly uncovering more and more fun facts about Mercury as it continues its preliminary mission. One of the more interesting things found so far is a magnetic "chorus" that appears similar to a phenomenon found ...
Phys.org / Snakes on trains: King cobras are 'hopping railways' to unsuitable habitats in India
King cobras are the world's longest venomous snakes. So, imagine seeing one a few feet away as you embark on a train in India. The Western Ghats King Cobra (Ophiophagus kaalinga)—a vulnerable king cobra species found in ...
Phys.org / Milky Way is embedded in a 'large-scale sheet' of dark matter, which explains motions of nearby galaxies
Computer simulations carried out by astronomers from the University of Groningen in collaboration with researchers from Germany, France and Sweden show that most of the (dark) matter beyond the Local Group of galaxies (which ...
Phys.org / To reduce CO₂ emissions, policy on carbon pricing, taxation and investment in renewable energy is key
A new study evaluating climate policies in 40 countries over a 32-year period finds that carbon pricing and taxation—combined with investments in renewable energy and research—are among the most effective tools governments ...
Phys.org / Tropical peatlands are a major source of greenhouse gas emissions, research reveals
Using a new method to track groundwater levels and greenhouse gas emissions, researchers uncover the climate impact of Southeast Asia's peatlands. In Indonesia, Malaysia, and other parts of Southeast Asia, vast areas spanning ...
Phys.org / Gravitational wave signal tests Einstein's theory of general relativity
For those who watch gravitational waves roll in from the universe, GW250114 is a big one. It's the clearest gravitational wave signal from a binary black hole merger to date, and it gives researchers an opportunity to test ...
Medical Xpress / France tightens infant formula rules after toxin scare
France has said it will impose stricter limits on the acceptable level of a toxin called cereulide in infant formula after potentially contaminated products were recalled in over 60 countries.
Phys.org / A new method to search for ultralight dark matter with advanced optical cavities
Dark matter is a mysterious type of matter that does not emit, absorb, or reflect light, yet is predicted to account for most of the universe's mass. While physicists have gathered extensive indirect evidence of its existence, ...
