Hidden secrets of human brain
Researchers have developed a novel technology that promises to increase understanding of how brains grow, and provide answers on repairing brains in the wake of neurotrauma and neurodegenerative diseases. Continue Reading
Oceans are heating up
The mixed layer of the ocean which blankets the top 20 to 200 metres is becoming thinner each year, says a new study which warns that the continued loss of this buffer may lead to more frequent and destructive warming events such as marine heat waves. Continue Reading
Brain implant to be compatible with tissues
Scientists have engineered a tiny brain implant that can be wirelessly recharged from outside the body to control brain circuits for long periods of time without battery replacement. Continue Reading
Does ventilation affect Covid transmission risk?
Researchers have developed a new online tool that can calculate the risk of Covid-19 transmission in poorly-ventilated places, showing that when two people are in such spaces and neither is wearing a mask, prolonged talking is far more likely to spread the novel coronavirus than a short cough. Continue Reading
The era of robots is here
The day is not far off when we are to witness a robotic revolution, it is said. Continue Reading
Why brain paralyses during sleep
Researchers at the University of Tsukuba led by Professor Takeshi Sakurai have found neurons in the brain that link sleep disorders and could provide a target for treatments. Continue Reading
Now, AI can predict psychosis in young patients
Researchers have developed an algorithmic pattern recognition that helps physicians to better predict the course of psychosis in young patients. Continue Reading
Having Covid may help protect against reinfection
Two new studies give encouraging evidence that having Covid-19 may offer some protection against future infections. Continue Reading
Scientists find link between mutation rate and size
Researchers have found a link between mutation rate—how quickly the DNA sequence changes—and genome size. Continue Reading
