Scientists from the University of Warsaw and Lodz University of Technology have identified what they say are the earliest chemical traces of fermented alcoholic beverages in northeastern Poland, after analysing 4,500-year-old ceramic vessels linked to the Bell Beaker culture.
Lower respiratory tract infections, mainly pneumonia and acute bronchiolitis, remained the world’s leading infectious causes of death in 2023, accounting for 2.5 million deaths globally, according to a new analysis published in The Lancet Infectious Diseases.
Previously unknown mechanisms used by viruses that infect bacteria to overcome bacterial defences, have been discovered by researchers from Jagiellonian University. The findings, published in PLOS Biology could open new paths for therapies targeting antibiotic-resistant infections, the researchers say.
Technology that would allow hospitals to personalise the fortification of human milk for premature babies is being developed by Scientists from the Gdańsk University of Technology and the Medical University of Gdańsk.
The ancient Forum Romanum — the main public square and political heart of ancient Rome — may have played a more active role in shaping political communication than previously thought, according to new research.
Scientists led by the Wrocław University of Science and Technology will develop a biomaterial designed to regenerate damaged bone and cartilage tissue under the REGENESIS project, an international initiative worth more than €1.4 million.
People who use psychedelic substances process emotions differently and may recognise threats more quickly and accurately than non-users, according to a new study by researchers at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow.
Scientists from the Warsaw University of Technology have developed a computational imaging method that can precisely measure semiconductor nanostructures from a single optical image, potentially speeding up quality control in photonic chip manufacturing and quantum technologies.
A Polish-designed onboard computer, LeopardISS, has been successfully tested aboard the International Space Station, where it was used to run autonomous navigation and Earth-observation algorithms directly in orbit, according to its developers at KP Labs.
Researchers from Poland and China have developed a method for printing microscopic structures directly onto the end of optical fibres to generate so-called vortex beams, a technology seen as a potential route toward higher-capacity optical communication systems.
Previously unknown mechanisms used by viruses that infect bacteria to overcome bacterial defences, have been discovered by researchers from Jagiellonian University. The findings, published in PLOS Biology could open new paths for therapies targeting antibiotic-resistant infections, the researchers say.
