Aging changes the way joints function, but avoiding activity may not be the answer. Growing older has plenty of upsides—but achy joints is not one of them. As we age, the joints that once handled every bend and fall start to weaken. This is because the amount of cartilage, a tough but flexible kind of […]

Stanford Scientists Reverse Age-Related Memory Loss by Targeting the Gut
Aging changes gut bacteria in mice, weakening communication between the intestines and the brain. Restoring that connection helped older mice form memories as effectively as young mice. For decades, age-related memory loss has largely been viewed as a problem that begins in the brain. But growing evidence suggests that some of the processes shaping cognition […]
NASA’s Hubble Reveals a Star-Spangled Stellar Masterpiece of 500,000 Ancient Stars
More than 500,000 stars glow in shades of red, white, and blue in a spectacular new image captured by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. Released in celebration of the United States’ 250th anniversary, the image features Messier 3 (M3), one of the Milky Way’s largest globular clusters. Globular clusters are dense, spherical groups of stars held […]
