Phys.org / Hidden meltwater found deep in Antarctic coastal waters reveals stronger climate impacts
Freshwater from melting Antarctic glaciers may be influencing the Southern Ocean in ways scientists have largely overlooked. New research, published in Frontiers in Marine Science, has found that glacial meltwater is not ...
Medical Xpress / Antibody fragment prevents hemorrhages associated with new Alzheimer's treatments
In 2025, the European Medicines Agency approved two antibodies for Alzheimer's disease: lecanemab (LeqembiTM, from Biogen) and donanemab (Kisunla, from Eli Lilly and Co.), both based on immunotherapy (the use of molecules ...
Phys.org / India gained 2.1 million hectares of dry woodland in a decade, major study finds
India gained around 2.1 million hectares of tropical dry woodland between 2014 and 2024—an area larger than Wales—according to a major new study involving researchers from The University of Manchester's Global Development ...
Science X / Hidden immune-microbiome link may explain lung disease's mysterious origin
Over the last few years, people have become quite aware of the gut microbiome and its impact on our overall health. Microbiome, however, isn't exclusive to the gut, as a host of bacteria also reside inside our lungs, and ...
Phys.org / Europe's aversion to eating insects may have deep ecological and evolutionary roots
In recent years, human population growth, coupled with the climate crisis, environmental pressures, and current production and consumption patterns, has driven the search for alternative food sources. With 1,611 insect species ...
Medical Xpress / Creatine may supercharge immune cells that are key to fighting cancer
Creatine, the organic acid that is popularly taken as a supplement by athletes and bodybuilders, supercharges a critical class of immune cells that activate and prepare the body's key cancer-fighters, according to new UCLA ...
Phys.org / Costa Rica paid landowners to restore forests and biodiversity—bioacoustics indicate that it worked
Forest restoration can help fight climate change and restore lost biodiversity, but the satellite-based techniques used to measure successful forest restoration have been less-than-helpful for measuring changes in biodiversity. ...
Phys.org / Milky Way black hole's missing wind finally found after a half-century-long search
The hunt is over. After more than 50 years of searching, astrophysicists at Northwestern University have finally discovered evidence of a powerful wind blowing from the Milky Way's central supermassive black hole, Sagittarius ...
Phys.org / JWST 'weighs' dormant black hole 10 billion light-years away
The most distant, nearly invisible dormant black hole has been detected and "weighed" by an international team of astronomers that includes researchers from UCL. The study, published in Science, identified a dormant black ...
Phys.org / A new strategy for assembling π-conjugated panels into square molecules revealed
A research group has developed a new method for selectively synthesizing three-dimensional macrocycles,⁽¹⁾ in which four panels are arranged in a square, by connecting planar π-conjugated molecules⁽²⁾ at right angles.
Phys.org / Light pulses uncover Higgs mode that reshapes perovskite crystal symmetry
Waves of light and sound interact to drive electronic and structural changes in a perovskite crystal. At the atomic scale, nothing is ever truly still. Materials that appear perfectly rigid and motionless to the naked eye ...
Phys.org / Why do rival plants coexist? The secret is in the soil beneath the oaks
How can plants that compete for the same resources grow in the same area without one driving the other to extinction? Ecologists have been trying to answer this question for decades, and a surprising new explanation has now ...
