Bone remains and a mummified dog suggest that dogs lived alongside humans. Long before the Inca rose to power, distinctive hairless dogs were already living alongside people on Peru’s northern coast. These medium-sized Indigenous dogs with pointed ears appear frequently in ancient Andean pottery, and a modern variation is recognized by the American Kennel Club […]

The Human Family Tree May Need a Major Rewrite
Growing evidence that early human relatives do not fit neatly into traditional categories is prompting a proposal to expand the genus Homo. The human family tree is becoming harder to fit into the categories scientists have used for decades. Research from Monash University argues that recent discoveries are blurring the boundaries between our ancestors and […]
“Lower-Risk” Childhood Cancer May Be More Dangerous Than It Appears
Researchers have uncovered new clues about why the childhood cancer rhabdomyosarcoma may become aggressive. Some children diagnosed with rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) appear to have lower-risk disease, yet their cancer can still become dangerously aggressive. Researchers have now uncovered biological similarities that may explain why, raising the possibility of identifying these children earlier and matching treatment more […]

Scientists Find a Surprising Cancer-Fighting Effect in Dark Sweet Cherries
Researchers found that natural compounds in dark sweet cherries could reduce tumor growth, metastasis, and treatment resistance in triple-negative breast cancer. Natural pigments that give dark sweet cherries their deep red color may also affect how an aggressive form of breast cancer grows and spreads. In a mouse study from Texas A&M University, researchers found […]
Galaxies May Be Mimicking the Dark Matter Signals Astronomers Have Been Hunting
Galaxies can create many of the same stellar stream distortions that astronomers have looked to as possible signs of dark matter. Astronomers have long hoped that gaps, bends, and other distortions in long bands of stars around the Milky Way could reveal the hidden influence of dark matter. But new simulations suggest many of those […]
