New molecular insights into the link between hepatocellular carcinoma and intratumoral fibrosis could lead to better treatment strategies, report researchers from Institute of Science Tokyo. Through a comprehensive analysis ...
Medical Xpress / Why you miss the warning signs: The thinking style that can amplify surprises
Surprise parties. Marriage proposals. Sports upsets. Bank collapses. Military sneak attacks. Why do some unexpected events catch us completely off guard while others don't? For years, political scientists, security analysts, ...
Phys.org / Bioinspired event camera tracks full vibration trajectory using geometry
Researchers at University of Tsukuba have developed a noncontact vibration measurement method using an event camera, a sensing technology inspired by biological vision. By applying geometric analysis to event-stream data, ...
Medical Xpress / Collaboration with after-hours house-call services eases burden on home care physicians, study finds
Researchers at University of Tsukuba report that collaboration between home health care institutions and private after-hours house-call (AHHC) services—which provide emergency responses during nighttime and holidays—can ...
Tech Xplore / Report calls for AI toy safety standards to protect young children
AI-powered toys that "talk" with young children should be more tightly regulated and carry new safety kitemarks, according to a report that warns they are not always developed with children's psychological safety in mind. ...
Phys.org / Satellite data suggest Sundarbans mangroves are losing resilience
Mangrove forests protect tropical coasts from storms, store large amounts of carbon and provide vital habitats for plants and animals, serving, for example, as nurseries for fish and crabs. They also supply local communities ...
Phys.org / AI accelerates elucidation of nuclear forces with explosive neutron star data
A research team is using astrophysical explosions to understand the mysterious forces at work in some of the smallest building blocks in nature: atomic nuclei. In new research published in Nature Communications, the team ...
Phys.org / Pollen-replacing feed strengthens honey bee colonies, long-term study confirms
A man-made food source provided honey bees a nutritious diet at a commercial scale over the course of two winter seasons, according to a new study led by Washington State University researchers. The study, published in the ...
Medical Xpress / Fatty acids that selectively kill senescent cells open new paths for age-related therapies
New research from the University of Minnesota Medical School has identified fatty acids that selectively induce death in senescent cells—the culprits behind aging and many chronic diseases—opening new avenues for age-related ...
