Phys.org / Enzyme shape-shifting captured in real time during catalysis
Researchers have captured real-time "molecular movies" showing how an enzyme changes shape during catalysis. The study was published in Nature Communications.
Medical Xpress / Autism-related genes may shape early brain development via the extracellular matrix
A team of researchers from the University of Aberdeen has uncovered, for the first time, how genes linked to autism and intellectual disability may influence early brain development.
Medical Xpress / For Black women with breast cancer, ultra-processed foods may worsen health outcomes
A study by Rutgers Cancer Institute researchers is the first to link ultra-processed foods to reduced survival in Black women with breast cancer.
Medical Xpress / Key lung immune cells can intensify allergic reactions
Alveolar macrophages are immune cells that live in the tiny air sacs of the lungs. Under normal conditions, these cells act as guardians, keeping the lungs healthy, supporting breathing, and preventing unnecessary immune ...
Medical Xpress / First vaccine shows promise in protecting from deadly melioidosis infection
Melioidosis is a little-known tropical disease now seen as an emerging global public health threat. The disease is caused by bacteria that live in soil and groundwater, and no vaccine exists to prevent infection, which can ...
Phys.org / A simple spin swap reveals exotic anyons
Researchers from the University of Innsbruck, the Collège de France, and the Université Libre de Bruxelles have developed a simple yet powerful method to reveal anyons—exotic quantum particles that are neither bosons ...
Medical Xpress / New Raman imaging system detects subtle tumor signals
Researchers have developed a new compact Raman imaging system that is sensitive enough to differentiate between tumor and normal tissue. The system offers a promising route to earlier cancer detection and to making molecular ...
Phys.org / PFAS detection in 15 minutes: A sensor system for rapid on-site analysis
PFAS are forever chemicals that do not degrade in the environment. They enter soil and water, accumulate in plants, animals and humans, and can be harmful to health. The problem: Until now, detecting them has been complicated, ...
Medical Xpress / Rural residents have less access to neonatal intensive care
For many newborn infants, access to a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) can mean the difference between life and death. The specialized staff and equipment available at NICUs are essential for infants with complex medical ...
Medical Xpress / Trump signs order reclassifying marijuana as less dangerous
US President Donald Trump said Thursday he was signing an executive order reclassifying marijuana as a less dangerous drug, in one of America's biggest shifts in drug policy for years.
Phys.org / Survey of researchers shows active AI adoption for core scientific tasks
A new study provides answers based on a survey with more than 6,000 researchers from the Max Planck Society and the Fraunhofer Society. The highlights: Researchers actively use AI, including for core and creative research ...
Phys.org / 'The river will not wait for us': Strict timeline set for Colorado River deal
Federal officials gave the clearest timeline yet for when a breakthrough could come in closed-door negotiations over the water supply of 40 million Americans.
