Bone health relies on a balance between osteoblasts (builders) and osteoclasts (recyclers). Peak bone mass occurs in early adulthood; deficiencies during this window amplify fracture risks later in ...

Tesla has started building Model Y battery packs with its in-house 4680 cells again, more than two years after pulling the plug on the original 4680-equipped Model Y to prioritize Cybertruck ...

Scientists at KAIST have found a way to turn a tumor’s own immune cells into powerful cancer fighters—right inside the body. Tumors are packed with macrophages, immune cells that should attack cancer ...

Microsoft has woven its generative AI technology throughout Microsoft 365, the company’s productivity suite. Its Copilot AI assistant is most often used in M365 apps for text-oriented actions, such as ...

Looking ahead: A team of battery researchers may have discovered a low-cost way to extend lithium-ion battery life without redesigning existing cells. Using a technique inspired by organic chemistry, ...

Scientists at Oregon State University have developed a new nanomaterial that triggers a pair of chemical reactions inside cancer cells, killing the cells via oxidative stress while leaving healthy ...
