Researchers have discovered quantum oscillations inside an insulating material, overturning long-held assumptions. Their work at the National Magnetic Field Laboratory suggests that the effect originates in the material's bulk rather than its surface ...

Researchers are using black hole shadows to challenge Einstein's theory of relativity. With new simulations and future ultra-sharp telescope images, they may uncover signs that his famous equations don't tell the whole story.

An 18th-century mechanical artwork depicting Mount Vesuvius' eruption has finally erupted -- 250 years later. University of Melbourne students reconstructed Sir William Hamilton's imaginative fusion of art and engineering using modern technology. ...

An extract from a desert berry used in traditional Chinese medicine restored insulin function and stabilized metabolism in diabetic mice. The findings hint at a powerful natural alternative for holistic diabetes treatment.

Miniature antibodies from camels and llamas can slip into the brain more easily than conventional drugs, offering a new way to treat disorders like Alzheimer's and schizophrenia. Researchers say these "nanobodies" could reshape the future of brain .. ...

A newly identified disorder, MINA syndrome, results from a mutation in the NAMPT protein that deprives motor neurons of energy, leading to severe movement problems. The discovery not only deepens understanding of nerve cell metabolism but also points ...

A collaboration between Brazilian and German researchers has led to a sunflower-based meat substitute that's high in protein and minerals. The new ingredient, made from refined sunflower flour, delivers excellent nutritional value and a mild flavor. ...

Researchers found that embodying a digital, childlike version of one's own face helps unlock vivid childhood memories. This illusion strengthens the connection between bodily self-perception and autobiographical recall. The findings suggest that ...

In the Gulf of California, a pod of orcas known as Moctezuma's pod has developed a chillingly precise technique for hunting young great white sharks -- flipping them upside down to paralyze and extract their nutrient-rich livers. The behavior, filmed ...

Researchers at UC San Diego have figured out how to get bacteria to produce xanthommatin, the pigment that lets octopuses and squids camouflage. By linking the pigment's production to bacterial survival, they created a self-sustaining system that ...
