Neuromorphic computers, inspired by the brain's structure, can now solve complex math equations (PDEs) efficiently. This breakthrough could lead to energy-efficient supercomputers for national security and offers new insights into brain computation.
Scientists used sounds to guide dreams about unsolved puzzles, boosting post-sleep problem-solving. This suggests REM sleep can aid creativity, though it doesn't prove dreams directly cause solutions.
UCI researchers used a new machine learning tool, SIGNET, to create detailed maps of cause-and-effect gene interactions in Alzheimer's-affected brain cells, revealing key regulatory genes and pathways that drive the disease.
Aligning overnight fasting with sleep cycles, without cutting calories, improved heart and metabolic health in at-risk adults by extending fasting and avoiding late-night eating.
COVID-19 mRNA vaccination before or during pregnancy is not linked to autism or developmental issues in children, a new study finds.
In 2025, tens of thousands of earthquakes near Santorini were caused by rising magma, which stalled 4 km under the seafloor, fracturing rock. AI and seafloor sensors provided detailed analysis.
A physicist's updated model suggests the universe, now 13.8 billion years old, may collapse in a "big crunch" in about 20 billion years, based on new dark energy data indicating a negative cosmological constant.
Researchers confirmed a material can have true 1D electronic properties using phosphorus atom chains on silver. Isolating individual chains showed this 1D behavior. Spacing matters: farther apart acts as a semiconductor, closer together predicts metallic behavior.
Scientists found the enzyme N4BP2 triggers chromothripsis, a catastrophic chromosome shattering that drives aggressive cancers. Blocking it could slow tumor evolution and drug resistance.
New analysis of Scandinavia's oldest plank boat suggests it was built in the Baltic Sea region around 2,400 years ago, based on pine pitch used for waterproofing. A preserved fingerprint was also found in the caulk.
