Physicists have uncovered how direct atom-atom interactions can amplify superradiance, the collective burst of light from atoms working in sync. By incorporating quantum entanglement into their models, they reveal that these interactions can enhance ...

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 ...

Duke-NUS scientists unveiled BrainSTEM, a revolutionary single-cell map that captures the full cellular diversity of the developing human brain. The project's focus on dopamine neurons provides crucial insight for Parkinson's treatment. Their ...

Scientists uncovered how the amino acid leucine enhances mitochondrial efficiency by preserving crucial proteins that drive energy production. By downregulating the protein SEL1L, leucine prevents unnecessary degradation and strengthens the cell's .. ...

Penn State scientists uncovered an ancient bacterial defense where dormant viral DNA helps bacteria fight new viral threats. The enzyme PinQ flips bacterial genes to create protective proteins that block infection. Understanding this mechanism could ...

Astronomers observed a massive, multi-temperature plasma eruption from a young Sun-like star, revealing how early solar explosions could shape planets. These fierce events may have influenced the atmosphere and life-forming chemistry of the early ...

A team of scientists has developed a highly accurate blood test for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. The test reads tiny DNA patterns that reveal the biological signature of the illness. For millions who've faced doubt and misdiagnosis, it's a breakthrough ...

Disrupted sleep patterns in Alzheimer's disease may be more than a symptom--they could be a driving force. Researchers at Washington University found that the brain's circadian rhythms are thrown off in key cell types, changing when hundreds of genes ...

Scientists have discovered that a "longevity gene" found in people who live beyond 100 can reverse heart aging in models of Progeria, a devastating disease that causes children to age rapidly. By introducing this supercentenarian gene into Progeria . ...
