What drives us to send probes throughout the Solar System and rovers and landers to Mars? It’s not cheap, and it’s not easy. It’s because we live inside a big, natural puzzle, and we want to understand it.
That’s one reason. But the main…

When it comes to haptic feedback, most technologies are limited to simple vibrations. But our skin is loaded with tiny sensors that detect pressure, vibration, stretching and more.
Now, Northwestern University engineers have…
New research presented at the American College of Cardiology’s Annual Scientific Session 2025 has shown that higher exposure to microplastics is associated with a greater risk of several chronic diseases,…
Research from Stanley Manne Children’s Research Institute at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago strongly suggests that Kawasaki disease is caused by a single respiratory virus that is yet to be identified. Findings…
Cell membrane proteins hide secret gateways that can be used to modify cell behavior. This has been demonstrated in a study led by the Hospital del Mar Research Institute and published in Nature Communications, with participation…
A newly discovered species of feathered, bipedal dinosaur with “exceptionally preserved and atypical hands” had just two fingers, each one tipped with a gigantic, claw-like talon.
A remarkable fossil specimen found in southeastern Mongolia…
It’s been five years since COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic. As SARS-CoV-2 shifts to endemic status, questions about its future evolution remain. New variants of the virus will likely emerge, driven by positive selection for…
Scientists at Auburn University have uncovered a fundamental principle of how brain cells stay connected, and their discovery could change how we understand Alzheimer’s disease. Published in Cell Reports, this groundbreaking study…
A new study from Queen Mary University of London found that 9% of all reported adverse drug reactions (ADRs) reported to the UK medicines regulator are associated with medications where side effect risk is partly dependent on…
