The discovery of a gut-to-brain regulation pathway in flies highlights the potential for certain medications to be further explored as treatments for obesity and diabetes in humans. Researchers at Brown University have uncovered how a neuropeptide hormone produced in the gut of flies can control their lifespan. The findings, published in PNAS, have implications for […]

NASA is advancing lunar exploration with the Artemis campaign, engaging SpaceX and Blue Origin to deliver vital equipment to the Moon. This initiative, which includes sending a rover and a habitat, sets the stage for extended lunar stays and a future Mars exploration. Artemis Lunar Exploration NASA, in collaboration with its industry and international partners, […]

Research on moscovium and nihonium shows they are more reactive than flerovium and subject to notable relativistic effects, broadening our understanding of superheavy elements and their potential uses. An international team led by scientists from GSI/FAIR in Darmstadt, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, and the Helmholtz Institute Mainz has successfully determined the chemical properties of the […]

Caltech’s new optical devices, evolved by algorithms and crafted via precise 3D printing, offer advanced light-manipulation for applications like augmented reality and cameras. Researchers at Caltech have developed a groundbreaking technology that “evolves” optical devices and fabricates them using a specialized 3D printer. These devices, composed of optical metamaterials, gain their unique properties from nanometer-scale […]

Pain signals travel through the nervous system with the help of proteins known as calcium channels, which play a crucial role in the process. Researchers at Linköping University in Sweden have identified the precise location of a specific calcium channel that modulates the intensity of these signals. This discovery could pave the way for the […]
