Phys.org / By stoking the Greenland debate, the United States may actually be harming itself
As the US administration led by Donald Trump has continued to reassert its interest in owning Greenland, Europe has become more and more concerned about the security situation in the Arctic.
Medical Xpress / New AI uncovers hidden patterns in biomedical knowledge graphs
A new artificial intelligence (AI) method called BioPathNet helps researchers systematically search large biological data networks for hidden connections—from gene functions and disease mechanisms to potential therapeutic ...
Medical Xpress / Qatari genetic map reveals over 150,000 structural variants
Research co-led by King's College London and Sidra Medicine, Qatar, has produced the most detailed map to date of large-scale genetic differences in the Qatari population, providing a clearer picture of the genetic diversity ...
Phys.org / Multiple autonomous AI systems spontaneously collaborate to advance materials research
A joint research team from NIMS and University of Tsukuba have developed an autonomous AI network technology that allows multiple autonomous AI systems to efficiently discover new materials by spontaneously collaborating ...
Medical Xpress / Blocking immune cells in the brain can prevent infantile amnesia
Scientists have found that blocking microglia (specialist immune cells in the brain) prevents infant forgetting ("infantile amnesia") and improves memory in mice, suggesting that microglia may actively manage memory formation ...
Phys.org / Physicists employ AI labmates to supercharge LED light control
In 2023, a team of physicists from Sandia National Laboratories announced a major discovery: a way to steer LED light. If refined, it could mean someday replacing lasers with cheaper, smaller, more energy-efficient LEDs in ...
Phys.org / Virtual staining advances: AI uses cell context to improve imaging accuracy
To ensure our bodies function correctly, the cells that compose them must operate properly. Imagine a cell as a bustling city where tiny parts called organelles move, reorganize, and respond to external stresses. To understand ...
Phys.org / The way Earth's surface moves has a bigger impact on shifting the climate than we knew
Our planet has experienced dramatic climate shifts throughout its history, oscillating between freezing "icehouse" periods and warm "greenhouse" states.
Phys.org / Direct visualization captures hidden spatial order of electrons in a quantum material
The mystery of quantum phenomena inside materials—such as superconductivity, where electric current flows without energy loss—lies in when electrons move together and when they break apart. KAIST researchers have succeeded ...
Medical Xpress / Preventing 'spermageddon'—discovery of an immune-like mechanism that protects fertility
New insights into a sophisticated process that protects sperm cells has revealed a mechanism, similar to an immune system, thwarts genetic chaos during the earliest stages of their development.
Phys.org / Bridging theories across physics helps reconcile controversy about thin liquid layer on icy surfaces
The ice in a domestic freezer is remarkably different from the single crystals that form in snow clouds, or even those formed on a frozen pond. As temperatures drop, ice crystals can grow in a variety of shapes: from stocky ...
Medical Xpress / Native American pregnancy-related deaths: They want a voice to stop the trend
Just hours after Rhonda Swaney left a prenatal appointment for her first pregnancy, she felt severe pain in her stomach and started vomiting.
