Scientists have uncovered a surprising clue about why people with ADHD often struggle to stay focused. A new study published in JNeurosci examined how brief bursts of sleep-like brain activity in awake adults affect their ability to stay focused during demanding tasks. Elaine Pinggal of Monash University and her colleagues investigated whether this unusual brain […]

A new review examines how ketogenic diets influence the brain’s metabolism to reduce seizures, while also revealing major gaps in clinical research. A new review published in The Lancet Neurology looks at one of the biggest questions in epilepsy care: why do ketogenic diets help some people have fewer seizures? Researchers from the University of […]

A new study suggests that matcha, the finely ground green tea powder widely used in Japanese cuisine, may influence allergic symptoms in an unexpected way. Japan’s famous matcha may offer another surprising benefit. A new study in mice suggests the powdered green tea could help reduce sneezing linked to nasal allergies. Matcha is a vivid […]

For years, biomolecular condensates were thought to be simple, liquid-like droplets with little internal organization. New research overturns that view, revealing that some condensates are built from ordered networks of protein filaments that define their physical properties and function. Cells organize many of their most important activities using biomolecular condensates, even though these structures are […]

A newly identified role for the neuronal MPS shows it controls nutrient uptake by acting as a gatekeeper. Its disruption speeds endocytosis and promotes toxic amyloid buildup linked to Alzheimer’s. Brain cells constantly draw in material from the fluid around them, including signaling molecules, nutrients, and even fragments of their own outer membranes. This process, […]

Astronomers have discovered a bizarre exoplanet with a giant underground ocean of magma that traps sulphur and may represent an entirely new class of worlds. A team of scientists led by researchers at the University of Oxford has uncovered evidence of a previously unknown type of planet beyond our Solar System. This unusual world appears […]

Scientists are investigating how exercise-triggered stress reshapes the cell’s energy systems, and whether those same mechanisms could eventually help counter metabolic disease. Don’t like the gym? Exercise scientist Ryan Montalvo gets it. He still goes anyway, because the physical strain of exercise often leads to lasting health benefits. Although workouts can feel intimidating, exercise triggers […]
