Humans quickly identify small numbers (up to four) but struggle with larger ones. Recent research reveals the brain has distinct mechanisms for processing small versus…
Child maltreatment currently encompasses four categories: physical, sexual, emotional abuse, and neglect. A study in Child Abuse & Neglect assessed definitions and measurements of child…
Only a small fraction of older adults with early Alzheimer’s symptoms are eligible for new monoclonal antibody treatments, according to a recent study. The study…
A PLOS ONE study suggests that bone remains in the Cueva de los Mármoles cave were modified for tool use in rituals, rather than consumption,…
Tensions are high in consciousness research, with over 100 researchers criticizing the Integrated Information Theory (IIT) as pseudoscientific. While IIT suggests that consciousness is more…
Researchers have created a novel material by coating DNA with a pure form of glass, resulting in a substance that is lighter and stronger than…
In the TRAPPIST-1 solar system, astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope gathered data on the closest planet to its star, TRAPPIST-1 b. The study…
Despite urban coastal pollution, sharks, including bull, nurse, and great hammerhead, are frequently found near cities like Miami. This behavior could expose them to health…
Recent research on 600+ carrot varieties has identified three recessive genes responsible for the orange color. The study provides insights into carrot domestication, its history,…
Scientists have developed a novel, universal framework for comparing various oscillations, which could provide significant insights into neural and cardiac science. By converting the issue…
A recent study analyzed pollen data around Lake Baikal in Siberia to uncover details about early human migration across Europe and Asia 45,000-50,000 years ago.…
Researchers studying Claudio, a man with his head rotated back almost 180 degrees, suggest that people’s adeptness at processing upright faces results from both evolution…

A study from Colorado State University in Nature Communications reveals earthworms contribute to 6.5% of global grain yield, stressing the importance of soil biodiversity and…
Researchers have found that the brain processes speech differently depending on how distinct it is and whether we’re focusing on it. The study combines neural…
Chinese scientists have successfully synthesized spider silk from genetically modified silkworms, producing fibers far stronger than Kevlar. Published in the journal Matter, this groundbreaking study…
Scientists have proposed a technique to enhance the efficiency of geothermal power plants by preventing “short-circuits.” The method involves adding specific materials or chemicals to…
Scientists at the University of Chicago found a glass crystal just a few atoms thick can trap and carry light—and could be used for applications.…
