COVID-19 has spread to various wildlife species, especially in areas with high human activity. The study highlights the need for careful monitoring of both humans and animals to understand and control the virus's spread.​

A new experiment uses powerful lasers and x-rays to search for axions, possible particles that could explain dark matter. This method may detect axions by observing changes in light, helping to solve major physics mysteries.

Researchers found that Olympic track and field athletes typically peak at age 27. Most compete in only one Olympics. Training age is the best predictor of peak performance. Athletes must time their peak to align with the Olympic schedule.​

The Default Mode Network (DMN) in our brain helps with creative thinking. Researchers found that disrupting the DMN makes people less creative. Understanding the DMN can help improve creativity and assist those who have trouble with creative thinking.​

A new study shows that our pupils are smallest when we start to breathe in and largest when we breathe out, challenging old beliefs. This discovery may help us understand how breathing affects brain function and behavior

A study found that X (formerly Twitter) polls during the 2020 U.S. elections were biased, often favoring Trump. Many votes were fake or from bots, and some polls spread false ideas about voter fraud, needing more transparency on social media.​

Researchers created RTNet, a new neural network that makes decisions like humans. RTNet's responses matched human accuracy, speed, and confidence. It uses probabilities and evidence, making it more human-like and better for understanding human behavior.​

Scientists created an AI model to help doctors diagnose different types of dementia using brain scans and medical data. This helps doctors identify the exact type of dementia quickly, leading to better and faster treatment for patients.​

Scientists discovered how our brain uses neurons to understand words. These cells respond to the meaning of words and the context they are used in, helping us make sense of language while we listen.

Scientists found that a gene called TRPC5 can cause obesity and depression after childbirth. This gene affects the brain. Future treatments might include gene therapy or special medicines to help manage these health problems.​
