Between biosignatures and technosignatures lie noosignatures, and some scientists think they could help us find alien life someday.
Time to fire up the Wayback Machine to pay tribute to Tim Burton's controversial sci-fi reimagining.
"That's the first time that's ever been done."
"These are among the best moments in science: seeing something new, unexpected."
On July 28, 1851, the first-ever photo of a total solar eclipse was recorded by a Prussian daguerreotypist named Johann Julius Friedrich Berkowski. It changed solar astronomy.
An astrophotographer captured a breathtaking scene as the International Space Station zoomed by Venus in the daytime sky.
How cancer develops and responds to treatment depends not only on the tumor cells themselves but also on the complex ecosystem of surrounding immune cells, blood vessels and connective tissue. In B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, these cellular…
There was an energetic push to install air-filtering devices in schools and nursing homes when the COVID pandemic struck. However, these devices had rarely been tested in real-world situations for their effects on infection outcomes in…
Plant-based diets are good for you. They promote gut, immune, metabolic and cardiovascular health, in part by cultivating a diverse community of intestinal bacteria. These benefits have long been known to stem partly from the fiber in…
GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic have transformed the treatment of type 2 diabetes, helping millions of patients better control their blood sugar while reducing cardiovascular risk and, for many, promoting substantial weight loss.
Researchers at Kennedy Krieger Institute and Johns Hopkins Medicine have discovered that memory consolidation during sleep depends on coordinated activity among three brain regions, and disruptions to this activity can impair memory…
A slowly rotating stellar halo was the clue to a major and unknown event in the Milky Way's history that saw the spiral disc flip over by more than 90 degrees.
An international team of researchers led by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) and the University of Bonn—with participation from the Barça Innovation Hub (BIHUB), FC Barcelona's medical department and the company Made of…
New research led by UMC Utrecht shows that school closures during a pandemic outbreak are most effective when carefully targeted. The study, published in Nature Communications, demonstrates that the right strategy depends on which age…
Infections with the hepatitis E virus (HEV) are the most common cause of acute viral hepatitis worldwide. In healthy people, they usually resolve without the person even noticing. For people with preexisting liver damage, however, they can…
A new pan-European study has identified the key behavioral factors that influence whether health care professionals prescribe new, novel or nonroutine treatments for patients with neurodegenerative diseases.
Researchers from the Universities of Hildesheim, Bonn and Freiburg have uncovered how human skeletal muscle responds to resistance exercise at the molecular level. Their findings provide new insights that could help optimize training…
Sleep disturbances are far more common among workers in middle to later life than previously believed, according to a study that links work-related stress to a range of well-being issues. Researchers found that nearly 70% of participants…
Wearable health monitors have grown increasingly capable, but most are still limited by the fact that tracking different types of body signals requires separate sensors, each with its own circuitry and patch of skin. That leads to bulkier…
Having children marks a before and after in people's lives. It is a life event that brings significant biological, psychological and social changes. However, it does not affect the whole population equally. A study conducted by the OPIK…
