Scientists discover why this deadly lung cancer keeps coming back

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is among the most aggressive types of lung cancer, with a five-year survival rate of just five percent. Although it often responds well to chemotherapy at first, that success is usually short lived. Most patients experience a relapse, followed by rapid disease progression. Because of…

24 new deep-sea species found including a rare new branch of life

Scientists just discovered bees and hummingbirds are drinking alcohol

As bees and hummingbirds move from one flower to another, feeding on nectar while helping plants reproduce, they are also consuming something unexpected: small amounts of alcohol. In the first large survey of alcohol in floral nectar, biologists at the University of California, Berkeley detected ethanol in at least one…

Metformin’s hidden brain pathway revealed after 60 years

For over 60 years, metformin has been a first-line treatment for type 2 diabetes, yet scientists have not fully understood how it works. Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine, along with international collaborators, have now identified an unexpected factor behind the drug’s effects: the brain. By uncovering a brain-based pathway…

Astronomers solve 50-year mystery of a naked-eye star’s extreme X-rays

The star γ Cas, visible to the naked eye in the constellation Cassiopeia, has confused astronomers for decades. It produces X-rays far more intense and hotter than what scientists expect from a typical massive star. New observations using the Resolve instrument aboard Japan’s XRISM space telescope now link these emissions…

Project Hail Mary meets reality: 45 planets could harbor alien life

Astronomers searching for extraterrestrial life have now identified the most promising places to look. Out of more than 6,000 known exoplanets, researchers have narrowed the list to just under 50 rocky worlds that may be capable of supporting life. The findings, published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society,…

Why your brain may be sabotaging your balance as you age

Lena Ting of Emory University and her team set out to understand how aging and Parkinson’s disease affect the way the brain and muscles respond when a person tries to regain balance. In earlier experiments, the researchers studied young adults by suddenly destabilizing them, essentially pulling a rug out from…

First ever atomic movie reveals hidden driver of radiation damage

Scientists filmed atoms “roaming” before exploding — revealing a hidden driver of radiation damage. The process: The research centers on electron-transfer-mediated decay (ETMD), a radiation-driven process that can cause loosely bound atoms to break apart. This mechanism is especially important because it can generate highly reactive particles in water, making…

Honey bees dance better with an audience

“Dance like nobody’s watching?” That idea does not apply to honey bees. Scientists have spent years decoding the honey bee “waggle dance,” a highly sophisticated form of communication. Researchers from the University of California San Diego and their international partners have now clarified how this behavior allows bees to share…

A new study published in JAMA Network Open reports that diagnoses of depression and stress-related conditions rise about a…

This tiny implant, smaller than a grain of salt, can read your brain

Researchers at Cornell University, working with collaborators, have created an extremely small neural implant that can sit on a grain of salt. Despite its size, the device can wirelessly transmit brain activity data from a living animal for more than a year. The advance, reported in Nature Electronics, shows that…

Scientists just solved a major mystery about how your brain stores memories

For memories to be useful, the brain must connect what happened with the situation in which it occurred. Researchers at the University of Bonn have now uncovered how the human brain handles this task. Their findings show that two distinct groups of neurons store content and context separately, then coordinate…
