A study led by investigators from Johns Hopkins Medicine found that some patients with discoid lupus erythematosus—a form of skin lupus commonly diagnosed in young to middle-aged Black women that causes disk-shaped plaques ...
Phys.org / DNA reveals hidden UV defense network that dissipates energy in femtoseconds
New details of how DNA protects itself from harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation show a hidden network of ultrafast molecular reactions that help prevent damage before it can trigger mutations that might lead to cancer, according ...
Phys.org / Finding new ways to measure the local sustainability of rural tourism
Tourism affects local populations differently in counties across the U.S., but measuring these effects may now be easier thanks to a new tool developed as part of a study by researchers at Penn State. For the study, published ...
Phys.org / ATLAS observes new Bc meson excited state
Protons and neutrons—the building blocks of matter—belong to a huge class of particles called hadrons. Hadrons are composite particles made of quarks that are bound together by the strong force. They are classified into two ...

Phys.org / Innovative satellite network for computed tomography of clouds will be initiated in orbit
The first small satellite of the CloudCT network has been integrated, tested, and prepared for launch from California in June 2026. This precursor mission will be followed, if successful, by the launch of 10 additional CloudCT ...
Medical Xpress / New genetic map of the human eye reveals clues to vision loss
An international team led by University of Manchester scientists has created the most detailed picture yet of how genetic differences shape the way the human eye works. The breakthrough could help explain why millions of ...
Tech Xplore / New research finds all major AI models ignore faith, religion in responses
A new multi-university academic consortium led by Brigham Young University has found AI models have significant biases and gaps when it comes to addressing faith and religion. The new research from The Consortium for Evaluation ...
Tech Xplore / Unstable software tests ripple through 55% of OpenStack projects, costing 1,156 developer days
In a study published in IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering, researchers from Kyushu University have found that "flaky tests," which are unstable software tests that seem to randomly pass or fail, do not stay confined ...
