Limiting the daily eating window may provide brain benefits beyond those associated with weight loss. Eating within a shorter daily window may provide cognitive benefits beyond those associated with weight loss alone, according to results from a small clinical trial. The pilot study followed older women with overweight or obesity during a weight-loss program and […]
Scientists Reveal the Climate “Perfect Storm” Behind an Ancient Civilizational Collapse
Overlapping climate cycles may have intensified the droughts surrounding the Late Bronze Age collapse. Around 3,200 years ago, societies across the Eastern Mediterranean faced drought severe enough to strain water supplies, agriculture, and food security. Research from Stockholm University, published in Science Advances, suggests these extreme conditions developed not from one isolated event, but when […]

Archaeology Students Discover Rare 400-Year-Old Intact Pot
A rare intact pot is helping archaeologists reconstruct life and cultural exchange at Mission San Francisco de Potano. Four centuries after someone shaped a small clay vessel by hand, University of Florida students lifted it from the soil completely intact. The pot, likely made by a member of the Indigenous Potano-Timucua tribe, is compact enough […]
New Strategy Shows Promise Against the Deadliest Brain Cancer
Focused ultrasound helped deliver microRNAs that targeted multiple glioblastoma genes and improved outcomes in animal models. A treatment aimed at glioblastoma must first cross one of the body’s most selective defenses: the blood-brain barrier. Researchers at the University of Virginia Comprehensive Cancer Center are testing a way to briefly open that barrier and deliver genetic […]

Hair Loss May Be an Overlooked Side Effect of Ozempic and Mounjaro
Widely used GLP-1 drugs, including Ozempic and Mounjaro, may carry an unexpected downside: a small but measurable increase in hair loss. A large study of adults with type 2 diabetes found that people taking the medications were more likely to develop alopecia than those using two other classes of diabetes drugs. The findings, published in […]
