An international team of astronomers have used the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope to find evidence for an ongoing merger of two galaxies and their massive black holes when the Universe was only 740 million years old. This marks the most distant detection of a black hole merger ever obtainedContinuar Leyendo
A new interdisciplinary study led by molecular biologist Florian Raible from the Max Perutz Labs at the University of Vienna provides exciting insights into the bristles of the marine annelid worm Platynereis dumerilii. Specialized cells, so-called chaetoblasts, control the formation of the bristles. Their mode of operation is astonishingly similarContinuar Leyendo
Researchers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope may have detected atmospheric gases surrounding 55 Cancri e, a hot rocky exoplanet 41 light-years from Earth. This is the best evidence to date for the existence of a rocky planet atmosphere outside our Solar System. París, May 08, 2024.- Renyu HuContinuar Leyendo
Daniel Charlebois and an early-career international research team have been granted US$1.2 million from the Human Frontiers Science Program to seek to answer the question “How predictable is evolution?” Charlebois, along with Michael Manhart from Rutgers University and Meike Wortel from the University of Amsterdam, will examine the development ofContinuar Leyendo
Ythaca, May 06, 2024.- Applying a pretreatment of a parathyroid hormone, commonly used to increase bone mass to combat osteoporosis, can help improve cartilage health and slow the development of osteoarthritis, Cornell researchers have found. The team, led by Marjolein van der Meulen, the James M. and Marsha McCormick DirectorContinuar Leyendo
ASU researchers explore the link between chronic stress, physical and mental well-being Tucson, May 06, 2024.- Stress comes in many shapes and sizes. There’s the everyday stress of preparing for a final exam or being stuck in traffic. And the more significant stress of losing a friend, family member, marriage or job.Continuar Leyendo
A new documentary has recreated the face of a 75,000-year-old female Neanderthal whose flattened skull was discovered and rebuilt from hundreds of bone fragments by a team of archaeologists and conservators led by the University of Cambridge. Cambridge, May 05, 2924.- The team excavated the Neanderthal in 2018 from inside aContinuar Leyendo
Machines can learn not only to make predictions, but to handle causal relationships. An international research team shows how this could make medical treatments safer, more efficient, and more personalised. Cambrigde, April 28, 2024.- Artificial intelligence techniques can be helpful for multiple medical applications, such as radiology or oncology, whereContinuar Leyendo
New York, April 26, 2024.- Researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine have developed a powerful new technique to generate “movies” of changing protein structures at speeds of up to 50 frames per second. Senior author Simon Scheuring, the Distinguished Professor of Anesthesiology Research at Weill Cornell Medicine, and colleagues developed theContinuar Leyendo
An international collaboration of researchers, led by Philip Walther at University of Vienna, have achieved a significant breakthrough in quantum technology, with the successful demonstration of quantum interference among several single photons using a novel resource-efficient platform. The work published in the prestigious journal Science Advances represents a notable advancementContinuar Leyendo
