Tech Xplore / Hybrid perovskite device generates electricity from the sun and rain simultaneously
A team from the Institute of Materials Science of Seville (ICMS), a joint center of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and the University of Seville (US), has developed a new hybrid device that allows energy to ...
Medical Xpress / Novel markers of brain blood flow and oxygenation may offer early clues to Alzheimer's risk
Subtle changes in how blood flows through the brain and how brain tissue uses oxygen may be closely linked to Alzheimer's disease risk, according to new research from the Mark and Mary Stevens Neuroimaging and Informatics ...
Medical Xpress / As worms and jellyfish wriggle, new AI tools track their neurons
Understanding the connection between behavior and brain cell activity is a major goal of neuroscience. To make progress, neuroscientists often choose simple, transparent lab animals because it's possible to see all their ...
Tech Xplore / Sodium-ion batteries lean heavily on lithium-ion expertise, patent analysis suggests
Researchers from the University of Münster, ETH Zurich, Stanford University, and the Fraunhofer Research Institution for Battery Cell Production (FFB) used AI-supported patent analysis to show how strongly battery technologies ...
Medical Xpress / The brain's primitive 'fear center' is actually a sophisticated mediator, research reveals
A Dartmouth study challenges the conventional view that the amygdala—the two-sided structure deep in the brain involved in emotion, learning, and decision making—is simply the brain's primitive "fear center," reflexively ...
Medical Xpress / These shoes are best for hip and knee arthritis, according to science
People with hip and knee osteoarthritis are advised to wear "appropriate footwear" to minimize their pain. Does that mean heels are out? Does it matter if you wear runners or something a little stiffer? How about using insoles?
Phys.org / Methane's missing emissions: The underestimated impact of small sources
Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, with an impact estimated at 80 times that of CO₂. Although efforts are being made to reduce the contribution of big polluters to methane in Japan, new research from Osaka Metropolitan ...
Phys.org / How the color of a theater affects sound perception
Live music can engage more than just one sense, despite it being an auditory medium. Lighting and visual effects can enhance the listening experience, but it is unclear if they can also affect the impression of the sound. ...
Phys.org / UN data shows 6.5 million people at risk of severe hunger from drought
Nearly 6.5 million people in Somalia are facing severe hunger as worsening drought, conflict and global aid cuts intensify the country's humanitarian crisis, the federal government and U.N. agencies said Tuesday.
Medical Xpress / Study finds that telemedicine visits cost far less than office visits
Telemedicine visits are five times less costly than in-person appointments for the most common conditions able to be treated by both forms of visits, new research from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of ...
Phys.org / Are there aliens broadcasting from Hycean world K2-18b? Astronomers just listened in
If you've been following exoplanet research over the last couple of years, you've definitely heard of K2-18b. Located 124 light years away in the constellation Leo, it's attracted a lot of attention as it sits squarely in ...
Phys.org / With the flip of a switch, scientists harness light to program how particles interact and assemble
NYU scientists are using light to precisely control how tiny particles organize themselves into crystals. Their research, published in Chem, provides a simple and reversible method for forming crystals that can be used to ...
