Medical Xpress / Wireless device uses light patterns to deliver information directly to the brain
In a new leap for neurobiology and bioelectronics, Northwestern University scientists have developed a wireless device that uses light to send information directly to the brain—bypassing the body's natural sensory pathways.
Phys.org / From concrete walls to living edges, here's how riverside habitats are being restored along the Thames
The Thames estuary in southeast England—the tidal stretch of the river—once supported extensive saltmarshes, seagrass meadows and oyster beds. These shallow areas, which flood and drain with the tides, provided vital ...
Medical Xpress / An innovative tool helps measure healthy aging
A Florida State University researcher is part of a pioneering team that has developed a new measure to understand and support healthy aging, with the potential to change how health care workers, employers and policymakers ...
Medical Xpress / Prognostic tool could help clinicians identify high-risk cancer patients
Aggressive T-cell lymphoma is a rare and devastating form of blood cancer with a very low five-year survival rate. Patients often relapse after receiving initial therapy, making it especially challenging for clinicians to ...
Phys.org / How key pre-emergence herbicides differ in action against blackgrass
Scientists at Rothamsted Research have discovered that three widely used pre-emergent herbicides—flufenacet, EPTC, and tri-allate—affect blackgrass (Alopecurus myosuroides) in strikingly different ways.
Phys.org / Genomic discovery could save farmers millions by preventing groundnut sprouting before harvest
Unpredictable rains pose a serious threat to groundnut farmers, with pre-harvest sprouting causing significant losses. Spanish groundnut varieties, representing nearly 60% of global production, are particularly vulnerable. ...
Medical Xpress / Inside the gut: What our stool could tell us about our diet, gut microbes and health
Researchers from King's College London have found that molecules in stool samples can accurately reflect what people eat and how their gut microbiome responds, offering a potential new tool to study nutrition and its impact ...
Medical Xpress / Microbial molecule that disarms inflammation discovered, offering new diabetes treatment strategy
An international research team has uncovered a surprising ally in the fight against insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes: a microbial metabolite called trimethylamine (TMA). Published in Nature Metabolism, the study reveals ...
Tech Xplore / New ultra-thin nanomesh electrodes enable breathable 'electronic skin'
Researchers have successfully developed a high-resolution electronic skin (e-skin) device on a breathable (nanomesh) substrate using transfer technology employed in semiconductor manufacturing.
Medical Xpress / Visualizing blood vessels in the human body in 3D without injections or radiation
A joint research team led by Professors Jaesok Yu, Hoejoon Kim, and Sanghoon Lee of the Department of Robotics and Mechatronics Engineering at the Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST) has developed ...
Medical Xpress / Mental health professionals urged to do their own evaluations of AI-based tools
Millions of people already chat about their mental health with large language models (LLMs), the conversational form of artificial intelligence. Some providers have integrated LLM-based mental health care tools into routine ...
Medical Xpress / AI tool shows promise in accurately diagnosing brain tumors without surgery
Researchers at Thomas Jefferson University have developed an automated machine learning (AutoML) model that can accurately differentiate between two common types of brain tumors using preoperative MRI scans, potentially improving ...
