Researchers discovered that children who went back to school during COVID experienced far fewer mental health diagnoses than those who stayed remote. Anxiety, depression, and ADHD all declined as in-person learning resumed. Healthcare spending tied . ...

Scientists have discovered that Madagascar's iconic Pinocchio chameleon is actually a distinct species now named Calumma pinocchio. DNA from both modern samples and centuries-old museum specimens also exposed another hidden species, Calumma ...

Researchers used AI to pinpoint a little-known monkeypox protein that provokes strong protective antibodies. When the team tested this protein as a vaccine ingredient in mice, it produced a potent immune response. The discovery could lead to simpler, ...

Scientists discovered that certain gene changes allow cells to function even when frataxin, the protein lost in Friedreich's ataxia, is missing. Experiments in worms, human cells, and mice revealed that lowering a gene called FDX2 helps restore vital ...

New research shows that crops are far more vulnerable when too much rainfall originates from land rather than the ocean. Land-sourced moisture leads to weaker, less reliable rainfall, heightening drought risk. The U.S. Midwest and East Africa are ...

Emerging evidence hints that daily multivitamins might quietly help certain older adults keep their blood pressure in check--especially those with poorer diets and normal readings at the start. While the overall results showed no broad benefit, ...

A sweeping review of more than 2,500 studies reveals that despite booming public enthusiasm, cannabis has strong scientific support for only a few medical uses, leaving most popular claims--like relief for chronic pain, anxiety, and insomnia--on ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising link between dark chocolate and slower aging. A natural cocoa compound called theobromine was found in higher levels among people who appeared biologically younger than their real age.

Scientists have managed to observe solar neutrinos carrying out a rare atomic transformation deep underground, converting carbon-13 into nitrogen-13 inside the SNO+ detector. By tracking two faint flashes of light separated by several minutes, ...

TRAPPIST-1e, an Earth-sized world in the system's habitable zone, is drawing scientific attention as researchers hunt for signs of an atmosphere--and potentially life-supporting conditions. Early James Webb observations hint at methane, but the ...
