10-Dec-2025 New gamified tool helps defend satellite supply chains from cyber threats University of South Australia As the world’s reliance on satellites intensifies, so too does the risk of sophisticated cyberattacks targeting space-based systems and critical infrastructure, with almost 240 cyber hacks targeting the space sector in the past two years.
10-Dec-2025 UCSF launches second neonatal transport to reach the bay and beyond University of California - San Francisco — What’s New In 2025, more than 400 critically ill infants were transported to UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals. UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals now have dedicated neonatal transport vehicles and teams in Oakland and San Francisco, reaching patients across the San Francisco Bay Area, the East Bay, Central Valley, and broader Northern California region. UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland serves the most patients for a freestanding pediatric trauma center in Northern California.
10-Dec-2025 UTA physics grad sets sights on the stars University of Texas at Arlington Like many kids, Shaan Patel spent nights staring at the sky in awe, wondering what existed beyond the stars. That curiosity has never faded. Now, he’s turning it into a career, earning his Ph.D. in physics from The University of Texas at Arlington. Patel will walk across the graduation stage Friday morning at Globe Life Field, a defining moment for an out-of-state student who has become a standout example of what’s possible at UT Arlington.
10-Dec-2025 The perfect kick National Center for Supercomputing Applications Researchers from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (U. of I.) have been using soccer balls to refine computational fluid dynamics (CFD) research methods. Shashwot Paudel, a doctoral student at U. of I., and Jinhui Yan, an associate professor in the Grainger College of Engineering Civil and Environmental Engineering Department, recently published their results in Computational Mechanics. Their research used NCSA’s Delta supercomputer to help them accurately predict a soccer ball’s flight path when kicked through the air. Journal Computational Mechanics
10-Dec-2025 Veterinary medicine research collaboration aims to reduce radiation threat to healthy soft tissue University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Cancer Center at Illinois When delivering radiation therapy to a tumor, clinicians want to be as precise as possible, using imaging, such as CT scans, to ensure the radiation targets the right area. However, when a tumor is located within the chest cavity or within or near the lungs, it is difficult to know that the tumor is in the same place when it is treated as when it was imaged. Each breath can cause the tumor to shift in position, making it difficult for clinicians to accurately target cancer cells without harming nearby tissue. Researchers are working to combat this complex issue through their research project, Development and Translation of Data-Driven Four-Dimensional Radiotherapy.
10-Dec-2025 UC Irvine professor wins criminology’s equivalent of the Nobel Prize University of California - Irvine Charis Kubrin honored with prestigious Stockholm Prize for groundbreaking research disproving immigration-crime myths
10-Dec-2025 Researchers collaborate to improve conventional cancer targeting strategies University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Cancer Center at Illinois When visualizing tumors or delivering targeted radiation therapy, clinicians use imaging methods to locate cancer cells. However, with the complex nature of tumors, it is often difficult to isolate and treat cancerous material, which poses an unnecessary risk to nearby healthy tissue and organs, hindering the efficacy and efficiency of radiation therapy. Researchers from the CCIL and Siteman Cancer Center are collaborating to investigate this cancer targeting problem.
10-Dec-2025 University of Tennessee is shaping the next generation of nuclear security experts University of Tennessee at Knoxville At the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, faculty are not only advancing nuclear science and engineering but also shaping the public policies, workforce pipelines and security frameworks that will define our global nuclear future.
10-Dec-2025 Christmas films, dynamic pricing, holiday stress, and seasonal traditions University of Nevada, Las Vegas Christmas is on the approach, and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, has experts available for a variety of topics: holiday stress, dynamic pricing, Christmas movies, and the traditions we hold dear around this time of year.
9-Dec-2025 Can we solve the mystery behind cleft lip and palate in infants? University of California - San Francisco Every face is unique. Genetics helps to determine our features, but sometimes genes have errors, which, in early fetal development, can result in babies with facial differences such as a cleft lip or cleft palate. If not treated, these craniofacial conditions can have a major impact on a baby’s quality of life by interfering with a baby’s ability to see, breathe, speak clearly, and avoid ear infections.
