For the first time, researchers have succesfully measured antibodies against specific respiratory viruses in exhaled air. This is shown in a new study involving, amongst others, the Karolinska ...

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive and difficult-to-treat cancers. One reason for its resistance to therapy is the dense tissue surrounding the tumor, which acts as a protective barrier ...

Nature’s game of hide and seek is entering the age of intelligent machines. A new article in National Science Review traces how animal camouflage, advanced materials and artificial intelligence are ...

According to a study published by researchers at the University of Helsinki, habitat degradation threatens Finnish biodiversity more than the public discourse focused on climate change might suggest.

ESMO has published version 2 of the ESMO Scale for Clinical Actionability of molecular Targets (ESCAT), a major update to the internationally recognised precision oncology framework that helps ...

In the future, quantum computers could solve complex problems where today’s computers fall short, for example in the development of new materials or supply-chain planning. To date, however, the ...

PPP-AR has long promised high accuracy from a single receiver, but early implementations depended on dual-frequency combinations, specific constellations and high-quality precise products.

Deltamethrin is used in agriculture and public health and can enter waterways through runoff. Its effects on fish are often assessed through tissue damage or death. A ...

Although the main prey of spotted hyenas (Crocuta crocuta), migratory ungulates such as blue wildebeest (Connochaetes taurinus), now spend substantially less time within hyena territories than they ...

Reindeer grazing changes the vegetation of northern pine forests below ground as well as above it. In a recent study in Finland, trees and understorey vegetation in grazed forests had nearly 30% less ...

RNA polymerases usually use a DNA or RNA template to direct synthesis. Other enzymes add nucleotides to the end of an existing RNA molecule. Could a protein instead assemble an RNA chain directly from ...

Terahertz waves sit between microwaves and infrared light. They can help reveal the properties of materials and are being explored for imaging, sensing and high-speed wireless links, but compact ...
