Medical Xpress / Gut bacteria may communicate differently with the human body in patients with Parkinson's disease
A new study from the University of Oulu suggests that gut bacteria may send different biological signals in Parkinson's disease. The findings add to growing evidence that changes in the gut could be linked to Parkinson's ...
Phys.org / Nanoparticles induce neuroregeneration in Alzheimer's disease models
The adult human brain has limited capacity to repair or regenerate neurons lost to Alzheimer's disease, the most common type of dementia. Existing treatments can slow disease progression but do not reverse cognitive decline. ...
Medical Xpress / 25 years after 9/11, research reveals lasting effects on World Trade Center responders
Twenty-five years after 9/11, FIU researcher Dr. Roberto Lucchini is still working with World Trade Center responders to understand how the toxic exposures and psychological trauma they experienced may affect their health ...
Medical Xpress / Vagus nerve stimulation hints at a vascular pathway to support long-term learning
Do you ever feel like sometimes you can master a new dance step almost immediately, while other times you struggle to nail it despite repeated practice? This might be due to skill or effort, but also to something less obvious: ...
Phys.org / High magnetic fields revive superconductivity in nickelates
Scientists from the National University of Singapore (NUS), in collaboration with Los Alamos National Laboratory in the United States, have uncovered that a class of nickel-based materials known as samarium (Sm)-based infinite-layer ...
Phys.org / Reference genome of the Saimaa ringed seal released
Researchers at the University of Eastern Finland and the University of Oulu have produced the first chromosome-level reference genome for the Saimaa ringed seal. The sequence of every chromosome in the seal's entire genome ...
Phys.org / Political divide traced to differing views on who is vulnerable
Everyone shares a similar moral compass about right and wrong, but where liberals and conservatives disagree is over who counts as a victim, according to new research from the University at Buffalo School of Management.
Phys.org / Bat DNA adaptations may connect virus defense, longevity and cancer resistance
Bats are anomalies in the mammalian world—they fly, have long lifespans and rarely get cancer. Scientists now suspect the bat immune system enables them to live longer without disease, according to a new study published today ...
Medical Xpress / Can research gleaned from a hibernating snail save a human heart?
University of Alberta researchers have discovered a novel drug that unlocks the secret of snail hibernation, allowing them to safely put non-hibernating animal organs into a deep metabolic sleep. The study, published in Nature ...
Tech Xplore / AI prevents unstable material designs, cutting costs for chip and cooling applications
Today, anyone with a large enough artificial intelligence model can generate millions of new material designs in minutes. Unfortunately, that hasn't led to a huge leap in the number of new materials being used to improve ...
Phys.org / LLM-based platform for generating new materials synthesis recipes dramatically cuts trial and error
A research team led by Professor Sung Beom Cho of the School of Advanced Materials Science and Engineering at Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU), in collaboration with the teams of Professors Jin Sung Park and Hyunsouk Cho of ...
Phys.org / Australia's lizards and snakes disappearing faster than previously thought
Australia's lizards and snakes are facing a far more precarious future than previously understood, with a new review led by Monash University researchers revealing that around 127 species, or just over 13% of Australia's ...
