Medical Xpress / A quantum machine learning framework to predict neoantigen immune response
Cleveland Clinic and IBM researchers are using quantum computing to tackle one of the most challenging problems in immuno-oncology: predicting which tumor mutations will trigger an immune response.
Phys.org / Climate change increases wildfire risks in Yosemite and other national parks
New UC Berkeley-led research indicates that continued climate change could severely increase wildfire above natural levels in Yosemite, Sequoia, Kings Canyon and Lassen Volcanic national parks.
Medical Xpress / Immune navigation system discovery could lead to better treatments for chronic inflammation
A scientific collaboration between the University of Bath (UK) and the UMass Chan Medical School (U.S.) has determined how a specific type of white blood cell—neutrophils—moves through the body.
Tech Xplore / Federal government to turn a Kentucky uranium plant into an AI data center and gas power complex
The U.S. Department of Energy is harnessing the artificial intelligence boom in its bid to convert another Cold War-era uranium enrichment site, tapping private equity to fund a $100 billion data center complex that will ...
Medical Xpress / Three-week digital training linked to motor gains and brain connectivity changes in Parkinson's patients
A new study from Reichman University has found that a short, three-week digital training program, combined with standard drug treatment for Parkinson's disease, led to significant improvements in patients' motor function ...
Tech Xplore / Some robotaxis approved to operate without steering wheels and losing the brake pedal could be next
Federal regulators are clearing the way for robotaxis to operate without manual controls like steering wheels or eventually even brake pedals as the rules start to catch up to the evolving technology.
Phys.org / Tiny sugar chains act as brakes to control calcium and sodium flow in lysosomes
Lysosomes are small compartments inside cells that break down and recycle biological materials. Once regarded mainly as cellular waste-disposal centers, lysosomes are now understood to be important signaling hubs for calcium ...
Phys.org / Amazonian 'zombie' fungus harbors a hidden stage inside forest mosses, new study reveals
A team led by researchers at the National Institute for Amazonian Research (INPA), in Manaus, has found evidence that the "zombie-ant" fungus (genus Ophiocordyceps), known worldwide for controlling ant behavior and forcing ...
Medical Xpress / 'Proust's madeleine' finally explained by neuroscience
A team of CNRS scientists has pinpointed the brain mechanisms behind the famous "Proust's madeleine" phenomenon, in which smells bring back vivid, emotional memories.
Phys.org / Neptune's inner moons may be shattered remains of ancient icy worlds
In 1989, the Voyager 2 mission discovered six new moons orbiting Neptune, including five tiny ones that orbit just outside the planet's main rings. Because of their small sizes and locations, these satellites have been difficult ...
Tech Xplore / Legged robots raise surveillance, job and battlefield accountability concerns
Legged robots have recently transitioned from science fiction to engineering fact, with modern humanoid and quadrupedal machines now capable of delivering packages to front doors and taking on dangerous military missions. ...
Medical Xpress / Mental distress, fatigue common in childhood survivors of leukemia, lymphoma
Adult childhood cancer survivors (CCS) of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) frequently report mental distress, fatigue and executive function (EF) impairment, ...
