Real-time imaging reveals 'RNA hub' driving adaptive immune response

A lot of things need to go right on a molecular level for immune cells to launch an adaptive response to an infection. B cells can produce different classes of antibodies tailored for specific infections through controlled DNA damage and repair that alter the genetic information

Inorganic nanoscale device behaves like a single neuron, opening doors for AI and retinal

McGill University researchers have developed a light-detecting nanoscale structure that mimics how a neuron processes information. The neuron-like behavior emerges from the materials themselves, reducing the energy demand associated with similar devices that rely on circuits or s

Grade inflation in pandemic strengthened university prospects for private school and disad

The first empirical evidence of how A-level grading in the pandemic affected university applications corroborates concerns about disproportionate benefits for private schools. Disadvantaged students also benefited, however, and the long-term effects for these groups could provide

Beetle-like borings in 70-million-year-old titanosaur fossils reshape Lo Hueco fossil stor

Traces or perforations caused by living organisms after an animal's death can be found on various dinosaur bone remains. These perforations, known as bioerosion structures, provide information that helps us understand relationships between living organisms in the past, reconstruc

Lost megalodon vertebrae resurface, confirming 80-foot size estimate

An associated set of gigantic vertebrae belonging to the iconic extinct megalodon, or megatooth shark, that had been missing in action since the 1980s was discovered, providing new information about the shark's lifestyle. Two Museum of Southern Jutland staff members, Mette Elstru

Mice actively seek better views to make visual decisions, virtual reality experiments show

Animals don't experience the world passively. A hawk tilts its head to track prey. A person leans forward to read a sign. Scientists call this "active sensing": moving the body to gather better information. A specific version of active sensing is infotaxis, which describes how an

Layered ZnPS₃ emits single photons, opening new path for quantum chips

Scientists from the Faculty of Physics at the University of Warsaw, in collaboration with teams from the National University of Singapore and Radboud University in the Netherlands, have observed single-photon emission from layered two-dimensional material ZnPS₃. This discovery re

ScottishPower owes me £1,000 in solar panel payments

For months I’ve been trying to receive my FIT payment, which should be more than £1,000I moved into my new house 14 months ago, and soon afterwards applied to ScottishPower, with whom the solar panels are registered for a feed-in tariff (Fit), for transfer of ownership of the pan

Can AI plan for heat emergencies better than simple rules? It depends

The thermometer reads 95°F (35°C) in Brooklyn, and vulnerable individuals need information to take appropriate action. New York City officials must gather facts quickly to provide updates on cooling centers, power outages and other details that could save lives. Are these details

Tiny magnetic waves could unlock quantum computers the size of a penny

A major breakthrough in quantum technology has turned magnons, tiny magnetic waves once considered too short-lived for practical use, into promising carriers of quantum information. Researchers extended their lifetime by nearly 100 times, reaching up to 18 microseconds, and disco

Diffractive networks enable optical information transfer through random and unknown diffus

The transmission of optical information through random scattering media is a major challenge in optics, biomedical imaging, telecommunications and remote sensing. When light passes through a turbid or diffusive medium, such as biological tissue or a randomly structured optical ma

Optical writing of antiferromagnets points toward new storage devices and energy efficient

A German-Japanese research team involving the University of Augsburg has made a significant breakthrough in the use of antiferromagnets. For the first time, the team has succeeded in writing magnetic information using only ultrashort laser pulses—without the need for electric cur
