    Mysterious Beluga Family Trees Uncovered Beneath the Arctic Ice

    DNA evidence is offering rare insight into the hidden social lives of beluga whales beneath the Arctic ice. Beluga whales can disappear beneath Arctic sea ice for long stretches, which makes them far tougher to follow than many other whale…

    Mini Human Brains Reveal How the Brain Wires Itself

    Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why they sometimes go awry. A team of researchers…

    Light offers a non-invasive alternative to painkillers in veterinary medicine

    Turning on the light to turn off pain: This is the principle behind a new analgesic method called light-induced analgesia (LIA), discovered by scientists from the CNRS1 in rodents. Noninvasive and drug-free, LIA proves to be more effective and…

    Octopus numbers exploded around the UK's south-west coast in 2025. A new report explores this rare phenomenon

    Cold spray whipped off the ropes as a diesel engine throbbed in the background. One by one, empty shellfish pots came over the side of the fishing boat, occasionally containing the remnants of crab and lobster claws and carapaces. Something…

  • What an ancient jellyfish can teach us about the evolution of sleep

    What an ancient jellyfish can teach us about the evolution of sleep

    An upside-down jellyfish drifts in a shallow lagoon, rhythmically contracting its translucent bell. By night that beat drops from roughly 36 pulses a minute to nearer 30, and the animal slips into a state that, despite its lack of a brain,…
