Researchers discovered that exercise changes heart-related nerve structures in surprisingly uneven ways. Your workout may be changing your heart in ways scientists never realized. Beyond strengthening muscles and improving endurance, exercise appears to rewire the nervous system that controls the heartbeat itself, and it does so differently on the left and right sides of the […]
Your Liver May Be Filling With Plastic – and Scientists Are Alarmed
Scientists warn that microplastics accumulating in the liver may worsen liver disease and pose a growing global health threat. Microplastics may be doing more than polluting oceans and ecosystems — scientists now believe they could also be accumulating in the human liver and contributing to the growing global burden of liver disease. Researchers studying environmental […]
Goodbye Plastic? Scientists Create New Supermaterial That Could Transform Modern Manufacturing
A newly developed bacterial cellulose manufacturing technique could lead to strong, multifunctional materials capable of replacing plastics. What if the next generation of high-performance materials did not come from a factory filled with petroleum-based plastics, but from living bacteria? Scientists at Rice University and the University of Houston have developed a new way to turn […]

Scientists Uncover Hidden Biological Differences Between Men and Women’s Immune Systems
A massive single-cell study has revealed hidden genetic differences in male and female immune systems that may shape disease risk in unexpected ways. New research from the Garvan Institute of Medical Research and UNSW Sydney may help explain why women are far more likely than men to develop autoimmune diseases, including lupus. Autoimmune diseases occur […]
