Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering say antibodies found in acute myeloid leukemia patients who achieved long-term remission after bone marrow transplant helped reveal a new CAR T cell target that appears on leukemia

A meta-analysis presented at the European Congress on Obesity suggests that roughly 8,500 daily steps may support long-term weight maintenance after dieting, addressing one of obesity treatment’s hardest problems.

A small study of college football players found that substantial head impacts were followed by measurable microbiome shifts within days, pointing to a possible new biomarker pathway for brain injury.

New research suggests spin qubits hosted in quantum dots can be moved from one dot to another without destroying quantum information, potentially combining the manufacturing advantages of electronic qubits with the flexi

Researchers at MD Anderson Cancer Center report that some relapsed lung cancer cells switch on YAP1 only after chemotherapy, a finding that could help explain why treatment-resistant disease returns.

A new attribution study says the Indian Ocean Dipole helped explain the extraordinary global warmth of 2023 and 2024, accounting for much of the spike that exceeded expectations from long-term warming alone.

Researchers report evidence for a newly defined condition, atimiaphobia, describing an intense fear of losing honor or being labeled shameless.

NASA says more than 650 volunteers in its citizen science programs have become co-authors on peer-reviewed research papers, highlighting how public participation is feeding directly into scientific literature.

A University of Michigan study points to a newly identified liver cell type that may offer clues to severe liver disease and future treatment strategies.

Mayo Clinic researchers report that an immune-signal blood test identified most germ cell tumors in a study sample, including many cases missed by standard markers.

Researchers report that language models tuned to sound more empathetic and validating became more error-prone and more likely to reinforce a user’s incorrect beliefs.

Researchers found that people writing symptom reports for an AI chatbot left out detail compared with reports intended for a human doctor, a gap that could undermine digital triage as AI becomes a front door to care.

A renewed look at David Bohm’s interpretation of quantum mechanics is reopening an old argument about whether the quantum world describes probabilities, hidden structure, or something closer to a concrete reality.

Researchers are examining whether birth weight may help explain why some people hit hard endurance limits later in life, raising the possibility that part of athletic capacity is shaped from the very beginning.

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory researchers report that inhibiting the protein PTP1B improved learning and memory in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease while helping microglia clear amyloid-beta plaque.

A new narrative review reports that e-cigarettes appear less consistently tied to smoking cessation when studies focus specifically on adults who already want to quit.

Using early orbital predictions for asteroid 2001 CA21, a researcher identified a possible Mars mission profile that could cut total round-trip travel time to roughly 153 days during a favorable 2031 window.

Researchers say a new error-mitigation approach called photon distillation can reduce noise before it derails calculations, potentially improving the path toward scalable photonic quantum computers.

Researchers say a new AI approach called GAME could improve how astronomers reconstruct the universe’s evolution, potentially giving scientists a stronger way to test the standard model of cosmology.

A new resource paper describes a wearable dataset from more than 59,000 participants in the All of Us Research Program, with multi-year Fitbit activity and sleep data linked in many cases to broader clinical and research
