Astronomers have uncovered something unusual happening in our cosmic neighborhood—a small galaxy near the Milky Way is behaving strangely, and no one is quite sure why.
Researchers have successfully created solar cells using simulated lunar dirt, potentially offering astronauts a sustainable energy source without needing to bring heavy materials from Earth.
New research from Brown University reveals surprising insights into why Americans at every economic level have shorter lifespans compared to Europeans.
Have you ever eaten something that made you so sick you couldn't stomach the idea of eating it again? A team of neuroscientists has discovered exactly how the brain creates these strong food aversions after just one bad experience.
A team of scientists has developed a new method to create carbon-negative materials using seawater, electricity, and carbon dioxide (CO₂). This new process not only locks away CO₂ in solid form but also yields hydrogen gas, a useful clean fuel.
A recent social media trend involving taping one's mouth shut at night to prevent mouth breathing has sparked considerable debate. But according to new research, this popular sleep hack may be less effective—and more risky—than people think.
Scientists have uncovered how a tiny molecular machine called the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier unlocks the gates to our cells’ powerhouses—an energy-boosting breakthrough that could pave the way for new treatments for cancer, diabetes, and more.

A new scientific review highlights a growing concern: microplastics and nanoplastics are accumulating in human brain tissue. Researchers are now investigating what this could mean for brain health and how we can reduce our exposure.
Your everyday routine may be quietly accelerating your brain’s decline—yet with a few simple but powerful adjustments, you can preserve your cognitive health.
Noise-cancelling headphones have become increasingly popular for people seeking peace and quiet, whether in a bustling office or on a noisy airplane. But how exactly do they work, and can using them be bad for your brain?
Eating more processed red meat increases the risk of cognitive decline and dementia, according to a study published in the peer-reviewed science journal Neurology.
Italian researchers have discovered that using a nasal spray to inhibit a specific brain enzyme can counteract the cognitive decline associated with Alzheimer's disease.
Research suggests that, if all Americans over 40 matched the physical activity levels of the top 25%, they could live 5 years longer on average, while the least active 25% could gain nearly 11 years with equivalent effort.
Scientists studied the effects of 'catch-up' sleep on the heart during the weekend and uncovered some intriguing insights. In this article, we discuss their findings
Why did our brains evolve to produce the experience of consciousness? New research suggests that instead of just aiding individual survival, consciousness may have developed to enhance our social connections and collective well-being.
