Mexico has confirmed its first case of influenza A(H3N2) subclade K, a variant commonly referred to as the "super flu," health authorities said,

New research reveals that when gut bacteria closely resemble the myelin sheath that protects nerve fibers, the immune system can become confused and attack both — accelerating multiple sclerosis.

A study from Stanford Medicine revealed that mRNA-based vaccines for COVID-19 can cause myocarditis in young men and adolescents.

Gut microbes produce a molecule that switches off inflammation linked to diabetes, offering a surprising new path to metabolic protection.

Experts explain what is behind the increasing rate of heart attacks in young women, why these are often misdiagnosed or mistreated, and how to reduce your risk.

Researchers tracking over 63,000 adults found that high-quality, minimally processed plant foods significantly reduce cardiovascular risk. But when those plant foods are ultra-processed, the advantage disappears—and can even backfire. Some ultra-processed pla…

Ultra-processed foods, often made with cheap extracts and additives, now account for about 70% of the U.S. food supply. In a recent study, older adults who reduced their intake of these foods ate less without even trying and showed improved insulin sensitivit…

iPTF14hls exploded for over 1,000 days, fluctuating in brightness five times. It had already exploded in 1954.

This could be the end of the orbiter that studies the Red Planet’s atmosphere and relays communications between NASA and its Mars rovers.

US News: Massive underground tunnels discovered across South America are not human-made. Scientists now believe extinct giant ground sloths dug these extensive

A new paper (accessible here) reports the detection of a periodic wobble in the anti-tail jet of the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS with a…

Thanks to it, scientists have been able to estimate the comet's mass more precisely.

Strength, endurance, power and balance all decline with age – but you can measure where you stand. A coach breaks down the key fitness benchmarks men over 40 should aim for, and how to adjust expectations decade by decade.

The novel design for the new qubit uses the chemical element tantalum in tandem with a special silicon substrate, creating what researchers say are the most coherent superconducting qubits to date.

A plant that looks like a fungus, lives like a parasite, and clones itself in the dark—Balanophora may be one of evolution’s strangest experiments. At the foot of moss-covered trees in the mountains of Taiwan and mainland Japan, as well as within the subtropi…

On 19 December 2025, interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS will at long last make its closest approach to Earth.

Smooth filaments stretching for many light-years, seen by the powerful space telescope, could indicate what the right "recipe" is for dark matter.

Our Standard Model of the Universe, for both particle physics and cosmology, remains intact for now. When will its foundations crack?

The Earth's magnetic field and oxygen evolved together over 540 million years, according to a major NASA study.

For a carbon-neutral bioeconomy, processes are needed that can efficiently capture CO2 and convert it into valuable products. Formic acid, or more specifically its salt, formate, is considered a promising candidate as it can be produced from CO₂ using renewab…

A new computational approach developed at the University of Chicago promises to shed light on some of the world's most puzzling materials—from high-temperature superconductors to solar cell semiconductors—by uniting two long-divided scientific perspectives.

Astronomers Observe Spacetime Whirlpool for the First Time: This theoretical phenomenon was discovered after being predicted by Einstein.

Australian researchers have played a central role in a landmark result from the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment in South Dakota—the world's most sensitive dark matter detector. Today, scientists working on the experiment report they have further narrowed constrain…

When postdoctoral researcher Matthew Zipple releases lab mice into a large, enclosed field just off Cornell's campus, something remarkable happens.
