Ever found a bare-nosed wombat napping under your house or heard a possum thumping around in your attic?
3D atomic imaging of advanced materials provides new insights into transitions such as liquids freezing into solids. For nearly a century, scientists have relied on classical nucleation theory to expl...
EurekAlert!For children born with cleft lip and palate, repairing gaps in the jawbone often means waiting until they are 10 to 12 years old before undergoing invasive bone graft surgery....
Deep beneath Mars, scientists have found evidence of enormous magmatic systems once thought to require Earth-like plate tectonics. Seismic measurements suggest molten rock repeatedly evolved and recyc...
JAMA Review Supports COVID Vaccines for 2026–27—but Safety Signals and High-Risk Observational Evidence Complicate the Picture
A pig kidney transplant worked for a record nine months. This enabled the recipient to stay off dialysis for longer while waiting for a suitable human donor's kidney to become available
France experienced its hottest summer on record in 2026, marked by heat waves, drought and massive wildfires, the environment minister said Thursday.
A game may be free to download, but for a small group of players, the spending can become anything but small. Video games are a major source of entertainment for teenagers and adults, and many of the ...
Drexel UniversityThose experiencing worsening voice quality - in pitch, clarity, volume, reduced vocal range or other voice disorders - and no hearing loss may be at 58% greater risk of...
The Panama Canal will restrict the number of vessels transiting the crucial waterway from Friday for only the second time because of drought caused by the El Niño climate phenomenon.
Adhesives are essential in electronics, vehicles and other products, but they can hinder repair and recycling when bonded parts are difficult to separate cleanly. A research team led by The University...
An international collaboration of researchers has used ANSTO's facilities to uncover new properties of one of the most fundamental everyday materials, water, and answer an important scientific questio...
Two tiny ant fossils recovered in southern Saskatchewan are helping scientists better understand the evolutionary history of modern ants. Ant fossils dating from 72–56 million years ago are rare. What...
Scientists from Leeds' School of Food Science and Nutrition have developed an advanced AI process that can rapidly identify plant proteins capable of acting as emulsifiers from tens of millions of ini...
On the windswept coasts of Oregon and California lives an unassuming little plant that can withstand salty blasts that kill its inland counterparts. It's called the yellow monkeyflower. Now, researche...
Research led by scientists at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette challenges a long-held assumption about the effects of climate change on marine life: Warmer oceans won't simply make animals sma...
The two research teams have developed and used AI detectors trained on thousands of political motions in Sweden and the UK. What surprised the researchers was not that politicians were using AI—but th...
For decades, scientists have studied iron preserved in ancient rocks to reconstruct how Earth's oceans and atmosphere became rich in oxygen. A new study suggests iron has recorded other major transfor...
Biodegradable plastics should be tough enough for use yet able to break down at an appropriate rate afterward. Researchers at the University of Osaka show that changing the size of rings threaded onto...
Satellite measurements detected declining photosynthetic activity in Western U.S. forests two years before bark beetle mortality appeared in aerial detection surveys, according to new University of Ut...
