Rogue DNA rings known as ecDNA may hold the key to cracking glioblastoma's deadly resilience. Emerging before tumors even form, they could offer scientists a crucial early-warning system and a chance to intervene before the disease becomes ...
Scientists at Harvard have discovered how salts like lithium bromide break down tough proteins such as keratin--not by attacking the proteins directly, but by altering the surrounding water structure. This breakthrough opens the door to a cleaner, .. ...
Scientists from the University of St Andrews have discovered that ions in solar flares can reach scorching temperatures more than 60 million degrees--6.5 times hotter than previously believed. This breakthrough challenges decades of assumptions in .. ...
A strange "Einstein Cross" with an extra, impossible fifth image has revealed the hidden presence of a massive dark matter halo. An international team of astronomers, including Rutgers scientists, used powerful radio telescopes and computer modeling ...
A new AI model from NYU Abu Dhabi predicts solar wind days in advance with far greater accuracy than existing methods. By analyzing ultraviolet solar images, it could help protect satellites, navigation systems, and power grids from disruptive space ...
Heating alone won't drive soil microbes to release more carbon dioxide -- they need added carbon and nutrients to thrive. This finding challenges assumptions about how climate warming influences soil emissions.
Scientists in Zurich have shown that stem cell transplants can reverse stroke damage by regenerating neurons, restoring motor functions, and even repairing blood vessels. The breakthrough not only healed mice with stroke-related impairments but also ...
Scientists have uncovered how the brain reroutes its communication pathways depending on whether it's processing something new or recalling the familiar. By fine-tuning the balance between different inhibitory circuits, the brain flexibly shifts ...
Late-stage planetary collisions reshaped Earth and its neighboring planets, delivering water, altering their atmospheres, and influencing their tectonics. New findings suggest these violent impacts were central to both planetary diversity and the ...
Switching clocks twice a year disrupts circadian rhythms in ways that harm health. Stanford scientists found permanent standard time would reduce obesity and stroke rates nationwide, making it the strongest option over permanent daylight saving time ...
