A long-lived heavy neutrino could have reshaped the early universe’s expansion and tipped the balance toward matter, according to a theory that predicts traces in primordial gravitational waves. If matter and antimatter had annihilated each other completely after the Big Bang, the universe would have been left with energy and no matter. Explaining why matter […]

Silent changes in the heart may signal cardiovascular danger long before symptoms emerge. The effects of chronic inflammation may be reshaping people’s hearts long before they experience any warning signs. In a study of nearly 480,000 UK adults, researchers found that higher inflammation levels were associated with thicker heart walls, smaller heart chambers, and a […]

A supplement containing a molecule naturally found in the body showed promise for easing lingering brain fog and fatigue after breast cancer treatment. Troubles following a conversation, remembering details, or organizing everyday tasks can linger long after breast cancer treatment ends. A small study now suggests that a supplement containing oxaloacetate, a molecule the body […]

Mouse experiments suggest psilocybin’s ability to rebuild brain connections may be separable from its psychedelic effects, opening new possibilities for non-hallucinogenic psychiatric medications. Chronic stress can strip away connections between brain cells, disrupting the circuits they form. Researchers at the University of California, Santa Cruz, found that psilocybin, the psychoactive compound in “magic mushrooms,” reshapes […]

A dinosaur fossil unearthed in England more than two decades ago has now been identified as an entirely new genus and species. A dinosaur discovered in an English clay quarry 25 years ago has finally been recognized as an entirely new genus and species. Named Paludohadros proudlovii, the plant-eating dinosaur lived about 125 million years […]

DNA from more than 3,000 barn owls reveals natural selection at work, but the advantage behind their changing feathers may involve coping with stress rather than color itself. Swiss barn owls have become more reddish-brown and more heavily spotted over the past 30 years. By tracking the DNA variants linked to their plumage, researchers have […]

The extraordinary intelligence of octopuses, squid, and cuttlefish may be linked to more than just their genes. Octopuses can solve problems, squid can rapidly change their appearance, and cuttlefish display remarkably sophisticated behaviors. These abilities rely on unusually complex nervous systems, but how such biological complexity evolved remains an open question. A new study suggests […]
