The true reason ancient insects grew so huge just got a lot more mysterious. Three hundred million years ago, Earth looked nothing like it does today. The continents were joined into a single landmass called Pangaea. Around the equator, vast coal-swamp forests dominated the landscape. Oxygen levels in the atmosphere were much higher than they […]
The Most Effective Knee Arthritis Treatments Aren’t What You Expect
A sweeping analysis of nearly 10,000 patients challenges assumptions about how best to treat knee osteoarthritis. For many people with knee osteoarthritis, relief may not require medication. A large new analysis suggests that simple physical treatments can ease pain and improve movement, often more effectively than some high-tech options. Knee osteoarthritis is one of the […]

Scientists Develop Bioengineered Chewing Gum That Could Help Fight Oral Cancer
Bioengineered gum lowers HPV and harmful oral bacteria, offering a promising new approach for cancer prevention and treatment. Researchers led by Henry Daniell of the School of Dental Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania report that extracts from a bioengineered chewing gum can significantly lower levels of three microbes associated with head and neck squamous […]
After 37 Years, the World’s Longest-Running Soil Warming Experiment Uncovers a Startling Climate Secret
A decades-long experiment in a Massachusetts forest is uncovering unexpected behavior in soil carbon. After nearly 40 years, the longest-running soil warming experiment in the world is producing an unexpected finding. What was once considered long-term, “stable” carbon in forest soils is proving far less permanent. As temperatures rise, even these stubborn carbon reserves can […]
