| Significant step toward quantum advantage Posted: 10 Dec 2020 08:21 AM PST Researchers have achieved a milestone in quantum computing research, accelerating the journey from theory to research to reality. |
| Robots could replace real therapy dogs Posted: 10 Dec 2020 08:20 AM PST Robotic animals could be the 'pawfect' replacement for our real-life furry friends, a new study has found. |
| Kids gain weight when new convenience stores open nearby Posted: 10 Dec 2020 04:47 AM PST A new study found that changes in the food environment around low-income and high-ethnic/racial minority populations over time impact childhood obesity. Increased availability of small grocery stores selling a selection of healthy items in close proximity to children's homes improves their weight status over time, whereas increased availability of convenience stores selling predominantly unhealthy foods is likely to be detrimental. |
| Predicting heart disease from the skin Posted: 10 Dec 2020 04:47 AM PST Researchers find that the genetic underpinnings of a skin disorder at birth indicate future heart problems. |
| Toxin provides clues to long-term effects of diarrhea caused by E. coli Posted: 09 Dec 2020 04:14 PM PST A study has found that a toxin produced by E. coli changes intestinal cells to benefit itself, an ability that could provide a clue to why the bacteria have been linked to nutritional problems such as malnutrition and stunted growth. |
| Insecure livelihoods hindering efforts to combat anti-microbial resistance globally Posted: 09 Dec 2020 04:13 PM PST Patients living in precarious circumstances are less likely to use antibiotics appropriately according to a new study, suggesting that efforts to improve conditions for those with little security in their livelihoods could have an unexpected benefit in helping to tackle antimicrobial resistance globally. |
| Toxic pollutants can impact wildlife disease spread Posted: 09 Dec 2020 02:07 PM PST Exposure to toxic pollutants associated with human activities may be influencing the spread of infectious diseases in wildlife, according to a new study. |
