It's easy to feel powerless against cancer, but research has identified several ways that we can reduce the odds of it occurring.

It's easy to feel powerless against cancer, but research has identified several ways that we can reduce the odds of it occurring. According to a recent analysis from the World Health Organization (WHO), more than a third of all cancer cases globally are preventable. Lung, stomach, and cervical cancers make up nearly half of those cases.

Research uncovers novel electronic properties in quantum material

Florida State University physicists are part of a team that has discovered unusual superconducting states in parts of graphene, with the potential to drive unexpected quantum technologies. Assistant Professor of Physics Cyprian Lewandowski and postdoctoral researcher Phong Võ Tiến are part of an international collaboration that has uncovered new aspects of superconductivity and topology in rhombohedral graphene, a system comprising just a few layers of carbon atoms stacked like the treads of a staircase in a shape known as chiral stacking. The work is published in Nature Physics. "The rhombohedral graphene system seems to capture many of the intriguing electronic phenomena that scientists have seen previously in other atomically thin systems, but they were previously not as ideal for technical applications because of the intrinsic complexity of the devices or replicability issues," Lewandowski said.

The good times and the bad times both will pass. It will pass. It will get easier. But the fact that it will get easier does not mean that it doesn’t hurt now. And when people try to minimize your pain they are doing you a disservice. And when you try to minimize your own pain you’re doing yourself a disservice. Don’t do that. The truth is that it hurts because it’s real. It hurts because it mattered. And that’s an important thing to acknowledge to yourself. But that doesn’t mean that it won’t end, that it won’t get better. Because it will.

A research team led by Professor Jin Yong Lee from the Department of Chemistry of Sungkyunkwan University, with co-first author HyoungChul Ham, and in collaboration with research teams from Korea University and the National University of Singapore, has developed a next-generation phototherapeutic agent, "NDI-COE." This agent induces pyroptosis (inflammatory cell death) in hypoxic tumor tissues by directly oxidizing intracellular water. The oligoelectrolyte was designed to overcome the oxygen-dependency limits of conventional photodynamic therapy by intercalating into the cell membrane to oxidize water. The research is published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.

CERN Discovered A Particle That Can Exist In Two Places At Once?!

Scientists at CERN are studying bizarre quantum particles that seem to exist in two places at the same time — something that completely breaks the rules of normal physics.

This strange phenomenon comes from the mysterious quantum world, where reality behaves in ways humans still struggle to understand.

Researchers believe discoveries like this could transform future technology and reveal hidden secrets of the universe.

What if reality is far stranger than we’ve ever imagined?

A shelf-stable, freeze-dried platelet product shows promise in treating TBI by reinforcing damaged blood vessels and reducing cerebral edema

Researchers have identified a potential breakthrough for traumatic brain injuries (TBI) using a freeze-dried blood product called “Thrombosomes.” Originally designed for battlefield hemorrhage, this product has demonstrated a unique ability to stabilize damaged blood vessels in the brain, reducing both immediate bleeding and the dangerous brain swelling (edema) that typically follows days later. The study suggests that these shelf-stable platelets outperform fresh platelets in protecting the “leaky” vessels associated with TBI, providing a much-needed tool for ambulances and remote clinics.
