Galactic ’monsters’ in unexpected places

Study highlights the importance of biodiversity for the survival of rare plants and their ability to adapt to climate change.

Researchers at the Würzburg site of the Cluster of Excellence ctd.qmat have successfully transferred the topological quantum Hall and spin Hall effects to a hybrid light-matter system using targeted material design.

In a new quantum physics experiment, ANU researchers have shown that matter can experience entanglement - an effect Einstein dismissed as 'spooky action at a distance'. Quantum physicists at ANU have observed atoms entangled in motion.

Researchers at The University of Manchester have developed a new physics-based artificial intelligence approach that, for the first time, enables accurate global-scale predictions of how dissolved

New research from a team at Trinity College Dublin has unearthed a cheap and environmentally friendly new option for removing pollutants from our water. The key? Oyster shells that would ordinarily end up in landfill sites after consumption.

Two protoplanets have been detected in the young star system WISPIT 2 - one of the rare cases in which multiple forming planets have been directly observed.

Intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIg) are increasingly being used in the treatment of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) - particularly in complex or treatment-resistant cases. In a large international study led by the Clinical Department of Rheumatology at the Medical University of Vienna, a comprehensive overview of the real-world use of IVIg in clinical practice worldwide has now been compiled for the first time. The results, published in EULAR Rheumatology Open, reveal significant differences in the use of IVIg between countries, specialisms and healthcare systems, and highlight existing gaps between clinical practice and evidence.

Thanks to next-generation endoscope technology developed at EPFL, surgeons can navigate hard-to-reach areas of the human body with extreme precision, enabling new minimally invasive procedures.

A team of scientists from Manchester and London have, for the first time, decoded the full range of mutations that drive tumour growth, which could pave the way for a new era in precision medicine, offering more effective treatments for thousands of people with cancer.

Waterloo scientists have developed a new way to understand how the universe began, and it could change what we know about the Big Bang and the earliest moments of cosmic history.
