A mysterious cosmic explosion has astronomers buzzing, as a strange event may hint at an entirely new kind of stellar cataclysm。 After detecting ripples in space-time, scientists spotted a fast-fading red glow that initially looked like a rare kilonova—the kind of collision that forges gold and uranium。 But just days later, the signal shifted, beha
Scientists have discovered a way to help the brain clean itself of harmful Alzheimer’s plaques by activating its own support cells。 By increasing a protein called Sox9, researchers were able to boost the activity of astrocytes, star shaped cells that help maintain brain health。 In mice that already showed memory problems, this approach reduced plaq
A gut bacterium may be quietly fueling depression through an unexpected chemical twist。 Researchers found that when Morganella morganii interacts with a common pollutant, it produces a molecule that triggers inflammation—something strongly linked to depression。 This finding helps explain how gut microbes can influence brain health at a molecular le
A massive Swedish study shows that AI can spot people at higher risk of melanoma using routine health data。 Advanced models significantly outperformed basic methods, identifying high-risk groups with striking accuracy。 Some individuals flagged by the system had up to a 33% chance of developing melanoma within five years
Scientists have uncovered a surprising link between simple body movement and brain health: every time you tighten your abdominal muscles—even slightly—your brain may gently sway inside your skull。 This subtle motion, triggered by pressure changes in connected blood vessels, appears to help circulate cerebrospinal fluid around the brain, potentially
A key protein involved in fat metabolism has been found to do more than scientists once thought。 Instead of just releasing fat, it helps maintain healthy fat tissue and balance in the body。 When it’s missing or disrupted, the results can be surprisingly harmful
A breakthrough experiment has shed new light on one of astrophysics’ biggest mysteries: the origin of rare proton-rich elements。 For the first time, scientists directly measured a key reaction that creates selenium-74 using a rare isotope beam。 The results sharpen models of how these elements form in supernova explosions, cutting uncertainty in hal
Scientists have uncovered a surprising new layer of complexity in Cannabis, identifying dozens of previously unknown compounds—including the first-ever evidence of rare molecules called flavoalkaloids in its leaves。 These compounds, prized for their potential health benefits, were hidden among a rich mix of plant chemicals that vary dramatically ev
A centuries-old vision of a mechanical volcano has finally erupted into reality, as two University of Melbourne engineering students recreated a design first imagined in 1775 by volcanology enthusiast Sir William Hamilton。 Drawing from an 18th-century watercolor and a preserved sketch, they used modern tools like LED lighting and electronic systems
