Researchers at Tokyo University of Science demonstrated a method for manipulating metallic chiral nanoparticles using circularly polarized light. By confining light to an evanescent field near the surface of ultra-thin optical fibers, they selectively transported left- and right-handed particles based on their chirality.

A study on elite male football players found that athletes of Black ethnicity, particularly those from West and Central African regions, exhibited more pronounced repolarisation abnormalities and structural remodelling. The findings suggest that treating athletes of Black ethnicity as a single group may oversimplify clinically meaningf...
A study published at ESC Preventive Cardiology 2026 found that climate change is driving extreme weather events, leading to increases in major cardiovascular events. Heatwaves had an immediate impact, while coldwaves produced a delayed and more sustained effect. Air pollution further amplified the effects of extreme temperatures.

Researchers found that building everyday behavioral skills in early childhood can shield young brains from the detrimental effects of prenatal stress. Children with stronger adaptive skills showed comparable brain activation patterns to their unexposed peers, suggesting these skills may protect brain function.
