Australian researchers have identified a promising new approach that could help stop one of the most aggressive forms of breast cancer from spreading. Triple-negative breast cancer becomes especially dangerous once tumor cells escape the breast and establish themselves elsewhere in the body. Australian researchers have now identified a molecular weakness that could eventually help determine […]
Scientists Discover Exercise Can Match One Key Benefit of Sleep for the Brain
One sleepless night can blur the brain, but just 20 minutes of exercise or a well-timed nap may help new memories survive for days. In a McGill University-led study, participants who exercised for 20 minutes or slept for 90 minutes after prolonged wakefulness performed about 22 percent better on a delayed memory test than those […]
Princeton AI Tames Fusion Plasma Hotter Than the Sun
Princeton’s PACMAN AI can control fusion plasma in milliseconds and predict dangerous instabilities before they start. In some fusion energy systems, particles can reach temperatures hotter than the center of the Sun. The challenge is keeping that extreme plasma under control, because disturbances can develop within just a few thousandths of a second, much faster […]

NASA Restarts Swift Telescope as It Slowly Falls Toward Earth
NASA’s Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory is back to studying the universe, even as the aging spacecraft continues to lose altitude and a planned mission to raise its orbit has been scaled back. Two of Swift’s three science instruments are operating again after months of conservation measures designed to reduce atmospheric drag and keep the observatory […]
Cardiac Breakthrough Could Offer Lifesaving Treatment to More Patients
A major trial found that implantable cardioverter-defibrillators may benefit some patients younger than 70 with mild-to-moderate heart dysfunction and cardiac scarring. A more than decade-long randomized trial suggests that implantable cardioverter-defibrillators may benefit some patients who have heart scarring and only mild-to-moderate loss of heart function, a group that currently falls outside standard treatment guidelines.
