Cache side-channel attacks and speculative execution attacks that leak information through cache states are stealthy and dangerous attacks on hardware that must be mitigated. Unfortunately, defenses proposed for cache side-channel attacks do not mitigate all cache-based speculative execution attacks...
Discovery by scientists at Berkeley Lab, UC Berkeley could help find silicon’s successor in race against Moore’s Law. In the search for new materials with the potential to outperform silicon, scientists have wanted to take advantage of the unusual electronic properties of 2D devices called oxide het...
Researchers report the development of cell membrane nanovesicles that carry receptors for SARS-CoV-2 and various inflammatory cytokines on their surfaces, thereby acting as decoys for both SARS-CoV-2 and inflammatory cytokines; the decoy nanoparticles inhibited infection by SARS-CoV-2 and neutralize...
Using X-ray lasers, researchers at Stockholm University have been able to follow the transformation between two distinct different liquid states of water, both being made of H2O molecules. At around -63 Centigrade (-81 Fahrenheit) the two liquids exist at different pressure regimes with a density di...
Susceptible people should receive a 3-dose vaccine series and a booster. New real-world evidence gathered by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) shows that COVID-19 vaccines are less effective at protecting against COVID-19-associated hospitalizations in people who are immunoco...
Disulfiram, a 70-year-old drug, blocks harmful immune structures and prevents lung damage in severe COVID-19, with promising results in rodent models. An FDA-approved drug that has been in clinical use for more than 70 years may protect against lung injury and the risk of blood clots in severe COVID...
Researchers call for routine monitoring of vaccine effectiveness as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve. mRNA vaccines are highly effective in preventing COVID-19 associated hospital admissions related to the alpha, delta, and omicron variants. But three doses are needed to achieve a similar l...
SPHINCS+ is a hash-based digital signature scheme that was selected by NIST in their post-quantum cryptography standardization process. The establishment of a universal forgery on the seminal scheme SPHINCS was shown to be feasible in practice by injecting a fault when the signing device constructs ...
A breakthrough discovery from the University of Queensland reveals that ribulose-5-phosphate, a glucose-derived molecule, can halt bacterial growth and suppress harmful inflammation.  Researchers at the University of Queensland have uncovered a cellular pathway that could be leveraged to reprog...
New research indicates that protecting the world’s oceans from escalating harm due to human activities might be more cost-effective and require less space than previously believed. The University of Queensland’s Professor Anthony Richardson collaborated on the study, which looks to halt the ra...
A new method developed by Amsterdam researchers uses non-Gaussian states to efficiently describe and configure quantum spin-boson systems, promising advancements in quantum computing and sensing. Many modern quantum devices operate using groups of qubits, or spins, which have just two energy states:...
