Medical Xpress / Stroke rehab should start early and address physical, cognitive and mental health
A stroke can change life in an instant, affecting everything from walking and speaking to memory, mood and the ability to perform everyday tasks. Recovery often continues for months or even years as survivors of stroke work ...
Tech Xplore / AI agents are all the rage—but research shows they leak private data
Before you prompt AI to answer another question or perform another task, a Wake Forest computer scientist wants you to know it could expose your sensitive data.
Medical Xpress / Hidden hormone spikes may reveal high blood pressure condition
A common but often overlooked cause of high blood pressure may be hiding in plain sight—and data from a pioneering wearable device could hold the key to its earlier diagnosis, according to new research.
Phys.org / Looking into the eyes of gibbons: New noninvasive eye-tracking study features these little-studied apes
When you look at someone, you usually look at their face. It serves as one of the most important sources of social information in primates, so the evolution of face perception has attracted considerable scientific attention. ...
Phys.org / Climate change exposes up to 560 million children globally to at least one additional month of dangerous heat per year
New research by Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) shows that globally, up to 560 million children ages 0–9 (43% of all children in this age group) experience at least one additional month (30 or more days) of heat stress per ...
Phys.org / Team identifies an evolutionarily conserved enhancer that regulates tendon and ligament development
A research team has uncovered fundamental molecular mechanisms governing the formation of tendons and ligaments, which are essential for musculoskeletal integration. Understanding these mechanisms could pave the way for the ...
Medical Xpress / Gut tissue may retain inflammatory 'memory' for more than a year
Every three to five days, the layer of cells lining our intestines is completely renewed—the fastest turnover rate in the human body. Such rapid regeneration is an absolute necessity for tissue that endures constant mechanical ...
Medical Xpress / Since the 21st Century Cures Act passed, FDA approvals have relied on fewer studies
Since the passage of the 21st Century Cures Act in 2016, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approvals for new medical products have relied on fewer studies, according to a study published Aug. 26, 2026, in the PLOS ONE by ...
Phys.org / Congo Basin study reveals nuanced relationship between people and flooding
In the Lac Télé Community Reserve, a vast tropical peatland in Africa's Congo Basin that is home to about 20,000 people, the forces of climate change and globalization are hitting residents hard. The seasonal floods upon ...

A new study by University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa researchers shows that nearly 23% of short-finned pilot whales that stranded over 13 years in the main Hawaiian Islands ingested several pounds of plastic ropes, netting, fishing ...
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. ...
Tech Xplore / Simulated proving ground trains and assesses AI for actively controlling fluid dynamics
A platform for training and comparing machine learning models to actively reduce drag, improve lift, cut noise and manage heat has been launched by an international team that includes researchers at the University of Washington, ...
