Bull sharks form social bonds and prefer certain companions, challenging the idea that they are solitary predators. These connections may help them learn, find food, and avoid conflict. New research shows that bull sharks develop social relationships with specific “friends,” challenging the idea that these animals are mostly solitary. The study – conducted at the […]
“Shocking” Carbon Discovery in Sweden’s Forests Stuns Scientists
Old-growth boreal forests may be hiding much more of their climate value underground than anyone realized. The planet’s northern forests hold enormous amounts of carbon in spruce, pine, and thick, needle-rich soils. But a major new study led by researchers at Lund University and Stanford University found that industrial logging is rapidly weakening that climate […]
Researchers Solve Long-Standing Puzzle of Rare Neurological Disorder
An immune-related gene has now been tied to a rare inherited neurological disorder, revealing an overlooked pathway in the nervous system. Even with today’s high-throughput sequencing tools, many rare movement disorders still do not have a clear genetic explanation. A study from researchers in Bochum and Tübingen now points to one more answer. After analyzing […]

The Surprising Reason Cancer Treatments Don’t Work for Everyone
A new study sheds light on why promising cancer treatments can produce dramatically different results across patients. One of the biggest challenges in cancer treatment is that a therapy that works well for one patient may completely fail in another. A study published in Nature Communications by a multidisciplinary team led by Dr. Louise Fets […]
This Tiny Plant Could Help Crops Turn Sunlight Into Food Faster
A tiny plant’s molecular “velcro” could help crops turn sunlight into food more efficiently. An international team of scientists has identified a surprising molecular strategy used by a rare group of land plants. This discovery could eventually be applied to major crops like wheat and rice, helping them convert sunlight into food more efficiently. The […]
