A team at the University at Buffalo has made it possible to simulate complex quantum systems without needing a supercomputer. By expanding the truncated Wigner approximation, they've created an accessible, efficient way to model real-world quantum .. ...

Dolphins washing up on Florida's shores may be victims of the same kind of brain degeneration seen in humans with Alzheimer's disease. Researchers discovered that cyanobacterial toxins--worsened by climate change and nutrient pollution--accumulate in ...

Researchers have unearthed South America's first amber deposits containing ancient insects in an Ecuadorian quarry, offering a rare 112-million-year-old glimpse into life on the supercontinent Gondwana. The amber, found in the Hollín Formation, ...

Researchers have identified two compounds, K102 and K110, that could repair the nerve damage from multiple sclerosis. These drugs help regenerate the protective myelin sheath and balance immune responses. Licensed by Cadenza Bio, the discovery ...

Scientists using a global array of radio telescopes have detected the universe's lowest-mass dark object by observing how it warped light through gravitational lensing. The invisible mass, about a million times the Sun's weight, could be a small ...

Archaeologists in Saudi Arabia discovered over 170 ancient rock engravings that may be among the earliest monumental artworks in the region. Created between 12,800 and 11,400 years ago, the massive figures were carved when water and life returned to ...

Scientists identified two types of brain cells, neurons and microglia, that are altered in people with depression. Through genomic mapping of post-mortem brain tissue, they found major differences in gene activity affecting mood and inflammation. The ...

USC engineers have developed an optical system that routes light autonomously using thermodynamic principles. Rather than relying on switches, light organizes itself much like particles in a gas reaching equilibrium. The discovery could simplify and ...

MIT scientists have found a way to make gene editing far safer and more accurate -- a breakthrough that could reshape how we treat hundreds of genetic diseases. By fine-tuning the tiny molecular "tools" that rewrite DNA, they've created a new system ...

Coccolithophores, tiny planktonic architects of Earth's climate, capture carbon, produce oxygen, and leave behind geological records that chronicle our planet's history. European scientists are uniting to honor them with International Coccolithophore ...
