A team of researchers affiliated with multiple institutions in Hungary, working with two colleagues from Spain and one each from the U.S. and Germany, has discovered the neuronal pathway in the rat brain that is responsible for social grooming. In their paper…

​Palaeontologists have discovered a 380-million-year-old heart—the oldest ever found—preserved in a fossil of a prehistoric fish, which lays bare an important stage in our own evolution. Lead researcher Professor Kate Trinajstic said the Devonian fossil found…

The hallmarks of sexual selection can be found in some animals long after they have died.

Mina Bionta explores how light interacts with matter by capturing snapshots of those interactions on the timescale of the light’s oscillations.

As humans, we know that an active lifestyle gives us some control over our form. When we hit the pavement, track our steps, and head to the gym, we can maintain muscle development and reduce body fat. Our physical activity helps shape our physical figure. But…

The international habitat or, I-Hab for short, is one of ESA’s many contributions to the lunar Gateway – an outpost that will orbit the Moon as part of the Artemis programme.

An article published in the journal Scientific Reports presented an eco-friendly approach to the synthesis of aminated copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles from the leaf extract of Rosmarinus officinalis.

Non-camptothecin topoisomerase I inhibitor, Genz, shows potent activity against camptothecin-resistant cells through double-strand break induced cytotoxicity.

Astronomers say they have found ‘smoking gun’ evidence of a new small planet located within a protoplanetary disk.

Trypanosomes can sense signal molecules and coordinate their movement in response to such signals, a phenomenon termed social motility (SoMo). Here, Bachmaier et al show that cyclic AMP response protein 3 (CARP3) localization to the flagellar tip and its inte…

Researchers have performed a review to bridge different dynamically adjustable LC architectures with their various applications in Soft Mattonics.

Researchers have confirmed the existence of a celestial diamond, which is harder and stronger than a regular diamond, and say it arrived on Earth's surface by way of a meteorite.

The galaxy NGC 1961 unfurls its gorgeous spiral arms in this newly released image from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. Glittering, blue regions of bright young stars dot the dusty spiral arms winding around the galaxy's glowing center.

Today, space bubbles, fire and liquids aboard the International Space Station are major research themes to improve the quality of life for people living

As wildfire occurrences have increased, as do the pollutants from burned watersheds in the water. This was noted by researchers in a review paper that indicates the requirement for more research in this field.

Researchers have created the first maps of Antarctic Ocean temperatures over the past 45 million years, providing crucial information on future sea level changes.

Earthquakes which occur at depths of several hundred kilometers in the mantle are called "deep-focus earthquakes". Such earthquakes occasionally result in serious disasters such as the 1994 Bolivian earthquake, which occurred at a depth of 638 km with a magni…
