Kentucky has one of the highest childhood obesity rates in the country, and the health consequences carry forward throughout life. That's one of the reasons researchers at the University of Kentucky are leading a groundbreaking clinical trial to determine whether medical interven

Envy plays a greater role when resources are allocated through majority voting than when we make decisions individually. This is shown by new research from Linköping University, Sweden. According to the researchers, the explanation may be that our sense of personal responsibility

Commercially farmed tomatoes taste sweeter when food and garden waste compost is added to their soil, a University of Queensland study has found. Researchers in the School of Agriculture and Food Sustainability grew tomatoes in southeast Queensland with and without the compost an

The true impact of missing doses of blood pressure-lowering medication will be demonstrated in a presentation at ESC Congress 2026. Approximately 1.4 billion adults worldwide ages 30–79 are estimated to have high blood pressure (hypertension), one of the most significant risk fac

A team of researchers from the University of Bonn, Heidelberg University and the National Autonomous University of Mexico has studied the critical behavior of light particles (photons) close to a phase transition. This critical scaling behavior, which sees thermodynamic quantitie

Acting as armor, a scaffold and a communication platform in one, our cells' plasma membrane lies at the heart of many crucial cellular processes. Traditionally, it has been thought to function through interactions among its various proteins and lipids. Now, researchers have revea

For centuries, scientists have been fascinated by the remarkable coordinated movements of flocking birds, swarming insects and schooling fish. Researchers have studied these natural phenomena to understand the rules of interactions between individuals that can produce complex gro

Researchers investigating the role of progranulin in cancer progression have previously identified the signaling receptor EphA2 as critical in tumor establishment and a potential target to enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapy. While the exact molecular mechanisms of action a

On the forearms of those working in the laboratory at the University of Oslo, one thing stands out: mysterious round or cross-shaped scars on the skin. Here, researchers need skin cells, and they themselves step up in the service of research. The skin cells are allowed to grow an

Some people with epilepsy experience delusions, hallucinations, paranoia and confusion after a seizure. While these episodes usually last only days, a new study led by researchers at Carilion Clinic suggests they may place patients at significantly higher risk of developing psych

Green spaces could play a key role in helping cities cope with the effects of climate change, yet they still play only a minor role in climate strategies. These were the findings of researchers at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) and Justus Liebig University Giesse

An interdisciplinary team of researchers has developed and demonstrated a step-by-step framework called Socratic Challenger that uses artificial intelligence to help undergraduate students cultivate critical thinking skills. Specifically, the framework uses AI as a collaborator t
