A common constipation drug could have an unexpected benefit for people recovering from depression. Depression is often thought of as a disorder of mood, but for many people, its most persistent symptoms are cognitive. Even after depressive episodes end, problems with memory, attention, and mental processing, often called “brain fog,” can linger for months or […]

The Surprising Reason Frozen Fruit May Be Just As Nutritious as Fresh
Frozen and canned produce may be a surprisingly healthy alternative to fresh fruit and vegetables. You probably know fruit and vegetables are good for you, and most of us don’t eat enough of them. But amid a cost-of-living crisis, buying more fresh food may not seem like a budget-friendly option. Enter: canned or frozen fruit […]
Scientists Discover the Oldest Known Fossils of Humans’ Closest Invertebrate Relatives
New fossils hint that the roots of complex animal life stretch further back than previously believed. Animal life today is remarkably varied and complex, and animals have spread into nearly every environment on Earth, from harsh hydrothermal vents in the deep ocean to the skies above the continents. For most of Earth’s history, however, life […]

A 4-month-old elephant calf, orphaned and unsettled after a rough truck ride, did not immediately approach the elephants nearby. Earlier the same day, she had entered a tourist camp in northern Kenya, where campsite staff, trying […]
17,000 Brain Scans Reveal Surprising Ethnic Differences in Alzheimer’s Biology
A large analysis of brain imaging and clinical data from more than 17,000 older adults is revealing a more complex picture of Alzheimer’s disease risk across populations. As new Alzheimer’s drugs increasingly target amyloid plaques in the brain, researchers are working to understand whether the biology behind the disease is the same for everyone. A […]
