In a complex world of ant colonies, he became queen and kept the size of the workers more than just size, which was related to what it was genetically meaningful. A new study by...
In a pioneering twist in quantum networks, physicists have proposed using entangled atomic clocks to detect how the space-time bending of gravity affects the quantum world. The work, led by researchers at Stevens Institute...
Autoregressive video generation is a rapidly developing research field. It focuses on a frame-by-frame synthesis of learning patterns using spatial arrangements and temporal dynamics. Unlike traditional video creation methods that may rely on pre-built...
Americans under 65 who are diagnosed with cancer face steep out-of-pocket expenses, nearly $600 more per month than their peers without cancer, and those expenses have risen sharply as the disease phases get. one...
According to a global study of more than 100,000 people worldwide, young people who received smartphones before the age of 13 are more likely to report suicide thoughts, aggression and reduced emotional resilience. The...
Using genetic data from more than 5 million people, scientists have developed a new multigene risk score that predicts the risk of adult obesity starting in young children. These findings are published in Natural...
Astronomers have discovered a distant trans-North River object (TNO), which has a rare orbit that may help solve the lingering mystery about the formation of the solar system. Nicknamed “Ammonite”, the object was appointed...
A team of engineers and oncologists at the University of Colorado took inspiration from the gecko’s toes to create a new drug delivery system that adheres closely to the tumor while minimizing damage to...
When DNA inside mitochondria is damaged, it is usually not repaired – it is destroyed. This degradation can cause inflammation and lead to Alzheimer’s disease to heart failure. Now, researchers at the University of...
