A new satellite-based framework allows scientists to measure the changing rhythms of cities in near real time. Cities are often described as living systems, but until now that idea has mostly been a metaphor. Roads, buildings, parks, and neighborhoods change constantly, yet much of that activity is hard to see as it happens. By the […]

This Surprising Hair Type Could Hold the Key to Chronic Itch Relief
A newly identified sensory pathway links fine hairs to itch sensations, revealing an unexpected biological system that may contribute to chronic itching disorders and provide new targets for treatment. An itch can seem simple, but scientists are finding that the sensation is far more complex than it appears. Researchers at the University of Michigan have […]
Your Diet Could Be Missing the Key Ingredient for Heart Protection
New research indicates that when it comes to heart health, the types of fruits and vegetables consumed may be just as important as the amount. Most healthy eating advice focuses on quantity: eat more fruits and vegetables, aim for five servings a day, and your heart will benefit. But new research suggests that when it […]

Researchers Warn Widely Prescribed Blood Pressure Drugs Could Be Harming Diabetic Kidneys
New research suggests that a common second-line blood pressure treatment may not be as kidney-friendly as previously assumed for some people with diabetic kidney disease. Blood pressure control is one of the most important ways to slow kidney damage in people with type 2 diabetes. But new research suggests that one of the most commonly […]
JUNO’s First Results Bring the Neutrino Mass Mystery Into Focus
JUNO’s first results have launched a new era of precision neutrino physics and brought scientists closer to solving the neutrino mass mystery. The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) has achieved its first major scientific milestone. On June 10, its debut physics result was featured as a cover article in Nature. Using 59 days of high-quality […]
