Medical Xpress / IL-10 gene therapy boosts immune attack against liver cancer in mice
Researchers at National Taiwan University have developed a liver-directed IL-10 gene therapy that strengthens cancer-fighting immune cells and suppresses liver tumors in mice. The treatment also generated long-lasting immune ...
Tech Xplore / Beyond human error: Systemic skill management in organizations and the 2005 Fukuchiyama-line derailment accident
Researchers at University of Tsukuba reexamined the causes of the Fukuchiyama Line derailment that occurred in April 2005, analyzing how train drivers acquire and use operational knowledge/skills, and simulating how the railway ...
Medical Xpress / Higher-dose ivermectin no better than standard dose for severe scabies
For adults with severe scabies, higher-dose ivermectin plus permethrin is not superior to standard-dose ivermectin plus permethrin, according to a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
Phys.org / Testing quantum collapse theory with the XENONnT dark matter detector
Theories of quantum mechanics predict that some particles can exist in superpositions, which essentially means that they can be in more than one state at once. When a particle's state is measured, however, this superposition ...
Phys.org / The first direct observation of laser-created isolated hopfions
Over the past few decades, some physicists worldwide have been investigating unusual particle-like magnetic structures known as topological solitons. These structures could potentially be leveraged to develop new cutting-edge ...
Medical Xpress / Allergy treatment shifts toward precision medicine with tailored immunotherapy, new guidance shows
Until recently, allergy treatment was largely based on average treatment schemes. A patient with pollen allergy would receive a similar therapy to others with the same diagnosis. Today, this model is beginning to change. ...
Phys.org / Climate scientist finds large errors in a global climate pollution database
New research from Northern Arizona University found that a global greenhouse gas emissions database produced by the Climate TRACE consortium, co-founded by former Vice President Al Gore, is underestimating vehicle carbon ...
Phys.org / Why twisted bilayer graphene stops superconducting near high-dielectric substrates
Superconductors are materials that can conduct electricity with a resistance of zero. In so-called conventional superconductors, this occurs at low temperatures when electrons become bound into pairs, known as Cooper pairs.
Phys.org / Ultrahigh-energy cosmic messengers may carry ultraheavy secrets
There may be an ultraheavy explanation for the mystery surrounding the origins of the highest-energy particles ever observed. Ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays are particles from space that strike Earth with energies far beyond ...
Tech Xplore / A human-inspired pipeline could enhance the training of computer vision models
Over the past few decades, computer scientists have developed increasingly advanced artificial intelligence (AI) systems that can tackle some tasks exceedingly well. These include computer vision models, systems that can ...
Phys.org / Artificial intelligence may accelerate the path to radicalization
How are ordinary people drawn into extremist circles—and what role can artificial intelligence play in that process? This question is addressed by a new study which, for the first time, combines psychological theories of ...
Medical Xpress / Immunologist's lab demonstrates the power of B cells to gather and defend organs against cancer
Creativity and curiosity have always been central to the work of Joshua Moreau, Ph.D., an immunologist whose work at Oregon Health & Science University sits at the intersection of harnessing the immune system; delving into ...
