Scientists Develop Wireless Pacemaker That Dissolves In Body
A wireless pacemaker that can dissolve in the body has been created for patients who need only temporary help to regulate their heartbeat. The Guardian reports: While pacemakers can already be used for temporary periods, experts say there are problem.....»»
A brown ale or hoppy lager? Even fruit flies have a preference
It's no secret fruit flies are attracted to beer. Setting aside a glass of beer is a common practice to lure pesky insects away from a summer barbeque. Research by Belgian and German scientists now shows that not all fruit fly species like the same b.....»»
Expansion in situ genome sequencing innovation makes hidden DNA-protein interactions visible
Harvard scientists have unveiled a new technique called expansion in situ genome sequencing (ExIGS) that combines existing in situ genome sequencing (IGS) with expansion microscopy (ExM). The innovation allowed researchers to link nucleus abnormaliti.....»»
New insights into grain boundary kinetics challenge traditional views
Researchers from City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK), in collaboration with experts from local and overseas universities, have reshaped scientists' fundamental understanding of the kinetic processes in crystalline materials, throwing light on new.....»»
Bowers & Wilkins Pi8 In-Ear True Wireless Earbuds review: what we’ve been waiting for
Bowers & Wilkins is known for creating exceptional audio experiences, and its new Pi8 earbuds continue that legacy......»»
Study suggests that "Jedi" rodents remotely move matter using sound to enhance their sense of smell
Scientists have debated the purpose of the ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) produced by rodents since the discovery of these sounds in the 1950s. There's a wide research consensus suggesting USVs are a form of social communication, a courtship display.....»»
Scientists develop a new method to study gene function in cells and tissue
The Gaublomme lab has developed a new optical pooled screening approach called CRISPRmap, which enables the coupling of optical properties of single cells to targeted genetic perturbations. Optical phenotypes are typically inaccessible for sequencing.....»»
Scientists successfully breed corals to improve their heat tolerance
A new study has shown that selective breeding can lead to a modest rise in coral heat tolerance......»»
Novel protocols for estimating Hamiltonian parameters of a superconducting quantum processor could improve precision
Researchers at Freie Universität Berlin, University of Maryland and NIST, Google AI, and Abu Dhabi set out to robustly estimate the free Hamiltonian parameters of bosonic excitations in a superconducting quantum simulator. The protocols they develop.....»»
One of the earliest examples of a winged seed found in a mine in China
A team of geologists, life scientists and biologists affiliated with several institutions in China has found one of the earliest examples of a winged seed in a mine in Anhui Province. Their paper is published in the journal eLife......»»
Researchers develop a laser that produces the strongest ultra-short laser pulses to date
The word laser usually conjures up an image of a strongly concentrated and continuous light beam. Lasers that produce such light are, in fact, very common and useful. However, science and industry often also require very short and strong pulses of la.....»»
Scientists challenge "misleading" Dublin declaration defending meat consumption
A declaration with 1,000 signatories supporting meat consumption and industrial agricultural production has been challenged by a group of scientists, led by Dr. Chris Bryant from the University of Bath......»»
Evolution in real time: Scientists predict—and witness—evolution in a 30-year marine snail experiment
Snails on a tiny rocky islet evolved before scientists' eyes. The marine snails were reintroduced after a toxic algal bloom wiped them out from the skerry. While the researchers intentionally brought in a distinct population of the same snail species.....»»
Experts warn "crazy busy" Atlantic hurricane season is far from over
Millions of people in the southeastern U.S. still are reeling from the catastrophic damage caused by Hurricanes Helene and Milton, but scientists warn that the Atlantic hurricane season is far from over......»»

Climate change boosted Milton’s landfall strength from Category 2 to 3
Rapid attribution shows the hurricane would have been a much less damaging storm. As attempts to clean up after Hurricane Milton are beginning, scientists at the World Weather Att.....»»
Polestar CEO Michael Lohscheller starts review after deliveries disappoint
New boss Michael Lohscheller said the Swedish EV maker will develop its commercial capabilities so it can go “from showing to actively selling cars.”.....»»
Harnessing quantum principles: Phased arrays within phased arrays for smarter, greener indoor optical wireless networks
Imagine a future where indoor wireless communication systems handle skyrocketing data demands and do so with unmatched reliability and speed. Traditional radio frequency (RF) technologies like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are beginning to struggle, plagued by.....»»
Event horizon: After photographing black holes, scientists are now making a movie
The first moving images of a black hole could reveal swirls of plasma and collapsing stars, deepening our understanding of the universe......»»
Chemists develop chiral DNA catalysts for asymmetric catalysis
Chemists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a way to make diverse chiral deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) catalysts by merging DNA repair with biorthogonal chemistry, paving the way for more efficient and versatile approaches t.....»»
Scientists use light to visualize magnetic domains in quantum materials
When something draws us in like a magnet, we take a closer look. When magnets draw in physicists, they take a quantum look. Scientists from Osaka Metropolitan University and the University of Tokyo have successfully used light to visualize tiny magne.....»»
