A routine blood marker tied to inflammation may reveal Alzheimer's risk years in advance. Scientists found that higher neutrophil levels--part of the body's first immune response--were linked to a greater chance of developing dementia. The discovery ...

Ancient DNA from a tomb near Paris reveals a shocking prehistoric reset: one population vanished and was replaced by newcomers from the south. The two groups show no genetic connection, signaling a major upheaval around 3000 BC. Disease, including .. ...

Scientists have discovered unexpected water-ice clouds on a distant, Jupiter-like exoplanet, challenging current atmospheric models. By directly imaging Epsilon Indi Ab with the James Webb Space Telescope, they found less ammonia than expected- ...

A vivid green pitviper hiding in Sichuan's misty mountains has been revealed as a completely new species. Scientists had overlooked it for decades, assuming it was a common snake--until DNA analysis proved otherwise. Named after Laozi, it features .. ...

A new AI-driven method called GOFLOW is turning weather satellite images into highly detailed maps of ocean currents. By tracking how temperature patterns shift over time, it can reveal fast-moving, small-scale currents that were previously ...

A mysterious magnetic material once thought to host an exotic "quantum spin liquid" has turned out to be something entirely different--and possibly just as intriguing. Scientists studying cerium magnesium hexalluminate found it showed the hallmark .. ...

A 150-year-old rule in geometry has been proven wrong. Mathematicians found two different doughnut-shaped surfaces that look identical when measured locally but are actually different overall. For decades, researchers suspected this might be possible ...

Scientists have discovered that combining two existing drugs can dramatically reduce liver fat linked to a common and often silent disease. The treatment not only improved liver health in animal models but also showed potential to lower heart-related ...

A remarkable genetic breakthrough has uncovered what may be one of the clearest snapshots yet of a Neanderthal "community" living together 100,000 years ago in what is now Poland. The findings reveal that these individuals shared genetic ties with .. ...

Scientists have uncovered a fascinating new species of pit viper in Myanmar that seems to blur the very definition of what a species is. This snake, now named the Ayeyarwady pit viper, puzzled researchers because it looks like a mix between two known ...
