Medical Xpress / Data platform unifies blood cancer 'omics' and clinical data to accelerate discovery
Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, the American Society for Hematology (ASH) and the Munich Leukemia Laboratory have developed a data-sharing platform that unites genomics, gene expression and clinical information ...
Phys.org / Electrons in moiré crystals explore higher-dimensional quantum worlds
The electrons that power our society flow left and right through the circuitry in our electronics, back and forth along the transmission lines that make up our power grid, and up and down to light up every floor of every ...
Phys.org / A secret odorant code patches a problematic relationship between pollinators and flowers
A plant uses a rare scent to guide its pollinator to male flowers first and to female flowers later, finds a study led by Kobe University. The work, appearing in Current Biology, uncovers a precise chemical system that not ...
Tech Xplore / Explainability is a must for older adults to trust AI, study shows
Voice-activated, conversational artificial intelligence (AI) agents must provide clear explanations for their suggestions, or older adults aren't likely to trust them. That's one of the main findings from a study by AI Caring ...
Phys.org / Mutant clownfish reveals how nature draws boundaries
In 1999, a clownfish (Amphiprion ocellaris) hatched in the aquarium of a tropical fish hobbyist in the UK. These clownfish are prized by aquarists for their unique pattern of three straight white bars bordered by a thin black ...
Phys.org / Structural color can now be printed with an inkjet printer
While traditional printer pigments fade and most structural color can't be printed, Kobe University material engineer Sugimoto Hiroshi has been working on nothing short of a revolution in the way color is produced.
Phys.org / New plan aims to track microplastics in U.S. drinking water, EPA says
U.S. officials are taking a closer look at what's in America's drinking water, including microplastics and leftover medications.
Medical Xpress / About 80% of breast cancer biopsies turn out benign. New imaging tool promises clearer diagnoses and fewer biopsies
Ultrasound is widely used in breast cancer diagnosis. While it can effectively show that a lump is filled with fluid—indicating it is unlikely to be cancer—it cannot reliably determine whether a solid mass is benign or cancerous. ...
Phys.org / Fish 'steals' glowing protein: Genome sequencing proves unique survival strategy
In a striking example of nature's ingenuity, a collaborative research team has revealed that a bioluminescent fish glows not by producing its own light-emitting molecules, but by "stealing" them from its prey. Details of ...
Medical Xpress / Ixekizumab + Tirzepatide boosts psoriatic arthritis outcomes more than Ixekizumab monotherapy
Ixekizumab plus tirzepatide (IXE+TZP) shows significant benefits for outcomes in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) versus IXE alone in adults with overweight or obesity, according to a study presented at the annual meeting of the ...
Medical Xpress / AED algorithm could improve location of lifesaving devices
Cedars-Sinai Health Sciences University investigators and colleagues created an algorithm designed to use data on sudden cardiac arrests to determine the best public locations for lifesaving devices called automated external ...
Medical Xpress / Electroacupuncture may ease 'brain fog' in breast cancer survivors, small trial finds
Researchers at the University of California, Irvine have found that electroacupuncture may help improve cognitive function and reduce psychological distress among breast cancer survivors experiencing persistent neuropsychiatric ...
