Stay informed about scientific discoveries, research developments and new findings from around the world.
War destroys laboratories and instruments. It also severs the human networks through which science reproduces itself. It disrupts mentorship, collaborations and informal ties that turn students into researchers.
After the disastrous proposal, there's some soul searching to do for Gordon and Ashley. Here's how to watch Colin From Accounts season 3 online from anywhere.
Invoke Studios has explained why it chose a warlock protagonist for Warlock: Dungeons & Dragons, explaining that "creative magic" was central to gameplay.
The science curriculum the industry is offering to schools casts plastics as safe, recyclable, and a source of good jobs. Critics say it’s propaganda.
Could math help explain why some relationships survive life’s inevitable stresses while others slowly fall apart? Researchers have spent decades developing mathematical models that treat romantic feelings as changing systems, revealing patterns in attraction, emotional reactions, conflict, and recovery.
A rediscovered memoir reveals that celebrated War of 1812 veteran Shadrack Byfield was far more rebellious and troubled than history has portrayed, battling chronic pain, poverty, authorities, and even rivals at his local chapel. The soldier who buried his own amputated arm and invented a custom prosthesis spent decades fiercely fighting for the pension and independence he believed he had earned.
Toiling around the clock, haggard Indonesian firefighters on the island of Borneo cannot keep up with the blazes devouring landscapes and shrouding communities in a cloying haze.
When rescue dog Chloe is not tumbling across the grass on a farm outside India's tech capital, Bengaluru, she is learning to sniff human breath for cancer with a little help from AI.
A large study of nearly 74,000 men suggests that long-term use of tadalafil, best known as Cialis, may be linked to a higher risk of glaucoma and other eye pressure problems. Men prescribed the drug for urinary symptoms caused by an enlarged prostate were 22% more likely to develop glaucoma, 32% more likely to develop ocular hypertension, and 33% more likely to be diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma or start glaucoma treatment over five years.
Lanterns' fourth episode finally reveals which of Rushville's residents is actually the Manhunter.
Scientists have found evidence that some gut bacterial populations can spread rapidly between people and across continents, suggesting the microbiome may be more transmissible than previously thought. The research also revealed hidden bacterial groups associated with aging, colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, and type 2 diabetes.
Floating PC cases are becoming increasingly common, while other manufacturers are finding new ways to improve airflow beneath the graphics card.
Wireless earbuds come in a huge variety of shapes and styles, with prices ranging greatly. These 5 pairs cater to all budgets and all types of listener, and all promise a solid audio upgrade.
A more realistic quantum model has revealed evidence that strange, nearly immobile quasiparticles called fractons could exist in solid materials. Their inability to move freely could make them promising building blocks for unusually robust quantum information storage.
Cancer is becoming an even larger global health threat, with nearly 21 million people diagnosed and 9.8 million dying from the disease in 2024. New estimates suggest about 1 in 5 people worldwide will develop cancer during their lifetime, while cases could climb by 67% to 34 million by 2050 simply because populations are growing and aging.

An eight-week course of self-administered laughter therapy helped a small number of people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease breathe more easily
With austral winter nearing its end, clouds cleared for a satellite view of volcanic activity in the remote South Atlantic.
MIT engineers have developed injectable “mini livers” designed to help support people whose failing livers can no longer perform essential jobs. Instead of replacing the damaged organ, the approach injects liver cells together with tiny hydrogel spheres and supportive cells, creating a pocket of functioning tissue that can connect to the bloodstream.
Scientists have devised a new way to switch magnetic computer memory while using far less energy than today's leading technologies. By mathematically optimizing the pulses used to flip digital bits, the method could reduce energy consumption by several orders of magnitude. Simulations suggest it may bring future memory devices surprisingly close to the fundamental physical limit for processing information. The same idea could eventually work with electrical currents or ultrafast lasers.
About 1 million young people in the UK are not in education, employment or training (NEET). The consequences for their health and income can be significant and long-lasting, with costs to the economy as well.

Many recent vehicles had CarPlay and Android Auto built in, but if yours doesn't, you can add a portable one to your dash.
The Seattle Times and Newsday are just the latest plaintiffs to take OpenAI to court, alleging copyright infringement. The two outlets say the company used their journalism as training data for its AI models without permission and often reproduces passages from their reporting in response to user queries. This is similar to lawsuits filed by […]
