Predatory snails drill holes in the shells of their prey. Using these boreholes, a research team led by palaeontologist Martin Zuschin from the University of Vienna was able to create a time series of predator-prey relationships in the northern Adriatic over the past millennia. This showed that human influences led to a collapse in predator-prey relationships from the 1950s onwards.
This study presents a highly efficient thermal simulation method using a non-gray phonon Boltzmann transport equation. By integrating first-principles phonon properties and advanced computational techniques, the method avoids empirical parameters and achieves remarkable efficiency, solving large-scale 3D problems in under two hours on a personal computer.
Independent of the temperature and humidity carried by the airflow, portable respiratory sensors are capable of continuously detecting respiratory intensity and frequency. Respiratory monitoring assesses physiological status and potential disease, preventing the escalation of adverse health conditions through early detection of recurrent wheezing, sleep apnoea and diabetes-induced kussmaul breathing.
Children born to mothers with obesity both before and during pregnancy have an increased risk of neuropsychiatric and behavioural conditions, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), according to new research from the University of South Australia.
GLP1RA agonists have been increasing in popularity for treating obesity and type 2 diabetes. With this novel treatment proving to be very effective, researchers are curious to know more about what other potential treatments it could also hold.
Using genomics and early treatment response to guide risk-stratification and low-intensity therapy use for ETV6::RUNX1 and high-hyperdiploid B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia benefits patients.
Longevity research is focussed on extending our time in good health, with the goal of increasing healthspan—the years spent in optimal well-being—rather than simply adding more years to life.
In a review of previous studies, a Johns Hopkins Children’s Center team concludes that some video games created as mental health interventions can be helpful – if modest – tools in improving the mental well-being of children and teens with anxiety, depression and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Comprehensive gene panel testing, one of the exciting new tools in cancer diagnostics, warrants greater scrutiny — as does a federal program aimed at speeding up the review process for proposed new medical technologies. Those are conclusions of Yale medical experts who studied both and published a report in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute on Sept.
Scientists at ORNL used neutrons to end a decades-long debate about an enzyme cancer uses. Their findings can support the design of an inhibitor that can target aggressive cancers.
Scientists are pioneering a new approach to designing electrolytes for more energy-efficient and less carbon-intensive electrochemical processes. They hope to improve electrolyte performance in applications such as iron production for steel.
