Advanced algae sensor tested in Toledo proves valuable tool in protecting drinking water
Advanced technology tested nearly two years ago in the water treatment system that serves Toledo could prove valuable in efforts to protect the water that pours out of taps well beyond northwest Ohio, according to research published by The University.....»»
Too young to be so cool: Lessons from three neutron stars
ESA's XMM-Newton and NASA's Chandra spacecraft have detected three young neutron stars that are unusually cold for their age. By comparing their properties to different neutron star models, scientists conclude that the oddballs' low temperatures disq.....»»
How can SLTTs defend against cyber threats?
Managing cybersecurity for any organization is no easy feat. Improving cybersecurity maturity is often even more difficult, made increasingly challenging by the eye-watering costs of cybersecurity products and solutions. And when you are responsible.....»»
Samsung S95D OLED TV review: I pulled my hair out so you don’t have to
While the excellent Samsung S95D OLED's anti-glare treatment may not be for everyone, it's a huge benefit for most viewers......»»
New simulations reveal hot neutrinos trapped during neutron star collisions
When stars collapse, they can leave behind incredibly dense but relatively small and cold remnants called neutron stars. If two stars collapse in close proximity, the leftover binary neutron stars spiral in and eventually collide, and the interface w.....»»
Anti-Asian rhetoric during the pandemic negatively impacted employment and earnings, new research finds
A first-of-its-kind study, led by a Northeastern University researcher, examined how racial bias and political rhetoric against Asians and other underrepresented groups in the United States impacted their employment status in the wake of the COVID-19.....»»
Disparities in the distribution of flood adaptation resources could be curbed by equity-weighting, research suggests
As the effects of climate change intensify, the need for efficient and equitable climate adaptation policies is becoming more urgent. This is especially true for U.S. coastal counties impacted by climate-induced sea-level rise and the socio-economica.....»»
Improving the ability of phototherapy to stimulate the systemic immune response to cancer
Phototherapy is a safe and effective method for tumor treatment, including photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT). PTT refers to the use of laser to activate photothermal conversion agents and use high temperature to kill tumor cel.....»»
AI enables faster, more effective antibiotic treatment of sepsis
Sepsis is a life-threatening infection complication and accounts for 1.7 million hospitalizations and 350,000 deaths annually in the U.S. Fast and accurate diagnosis is critical, as mortality risk increases up to 8% every hour without effective treat.....»»
Study explores how key gene modulates terpene aroma in grapes
A study explores the ethylene-responsive gene VviERF003's influence on glycosylated monoterpenoid synthesis in grapes, which are pivotal for the fruity and floral notes in wines. Understanding this genetic regulation provides insights into how wine a.....»»
Antarctic cold spells shatter records amid global heat waves in late winter 2023
While 2023 is noted for breaking global temperature records (State of the Global Climate 2023), the year also brought an unexpected twist with extreme cold events in Antarctica. A new study published in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences reveals the su.....»»
Researchers harvest acid from seawater to feed beneficial algae
From the air you breathe to the seafood you eat, marine algae have some involvement—they consume carbon dioxide and produce oxygen through photosynthesis and feed fish and shellfish. One day, marine algae could also be used to make widely available.....»»
Is magnesium the sleeping potion that enables sandhoppers to survive cold winters?
Magnesium compounds are a common ingredient of many remedies designed to help people wind down and escape the stresses of modern life. However, a new study has shown it is not only humans that are using forms of the chemical as a way to help them sur.....»»
Researchers develop piezocatalytically-induced controllable mineralization scaffold with bone-like microenvironment
Inspired by nature, the researchers developed a piezocatalytically-induced controlled mineralization strategy using piezoelectric polymer poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) fibers with ordered micro-nano structures to prepare biomimetic tissue engineering sca.....»»
Scientists propose novel AI approach for lipid nanoparticles screening in mRNA delivery
The targeted treatment of pan-cancer by messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccine is a hot topic in drug research. A key challenge in mRNA design is the construction of delivery systems called lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), which serve as carriers to deliver mRNA th.....»»
Mongolian grasslands study reveals key drivers of plant community stability in changing climate
An international research team has undertaken a study of plants in the Mongolian grasslands to evaluate the stability of these plant communities over time. They specifically looked at how the dryness of the climate impacted the plant communities and.....»»
How did a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way come to be? Physicists offer an explanation
Crater 2, located approximately 380,000 light years from Earth, is one of the largest satellite galaxies of the Milky Way. Extremely cold and with slow-moving stars, Crater 2 has low surface brightness. How this galaxy originated remains unclear......»»
