Discovery of Three Forgotten Kings Rewrites Assyria’s Royal History

Three missing rulers reveal that Assyria’s official royal chronology may have concealed a more contested political history. For nearly a century, historians have treated the Assyrian King List (AKL) as the standard chronology of Assyria’s rulers, particularly during the empire’s later history. But evidence drawn from inscriptions, tablets, and damaged monuments suggests that this official […]

This Fossil Upends a Decades-Old Debate About Snake Evolution

Exceptionally preserved Brazilian fossil reveals early snakes explored several habitats. More than 4,000 snake species live today, yet the evolutionary path that produced their elongated, limbless bodies remains difficult to reconstruct. Snakes are highly modified lizards, but their limited fossil record has left one of evolutionary biology’s central questions unresolved. Scientists have long debated whether […]

Breast Cancer May Hijack Nerves To Grow and Resist Treatment

Triple-negative breast tumors may hijack immune cells to attract nerves that help the cancer grow. Nerves growing through a tumor may help an aggressive breast cancer survive, expand, and resist treatment. University of Oklahoma researchers have identified how triple-negative breast cancer may recruit those nerves by turning the body’s own immune cells into messengers. Networks […]

Any Level of Physical Activity May Slow Cognitive Decline, Study Suggests

Cardiovascular health in midlife may influence mental function later in life. A person’s activity level and blood sugar in middle age may help shape how quickly thinking skills decline decades later. Research from UT Health San Antonio, the academic health center of The University of Texas at San Antonio, found that physical activity and better […]

This AI Can Find the Missing Atoms That X-Rays Cannot See

An AI model adapted from image inpainting can reconstruct missing atoms in crystal structures with a reported 97 percent success rate. A crystal structure can appear nearly complete yet still be unusable for computer simulations because some of its atoms are missing. Hydrogen is a frequent source of these gaps, and researchers have now adapted […]
