È stato “inopportuno portare fino Venezia” le parole pronunciate dal Presidente della Repubblica in occasione della presentazione dei David di Donatello al Quirinale. Così il ministro della Cultura, Alessandro Giuli, commenta le affermazioni del presidente della Biennale Pietrangelo Buttafuoco, intervenendo a Sky Tg24 Live in Roma.     Secondo Giuli, “questo…

New “Trojan horse” obesity drug supercharges weight loss in early tests

Researchers led by metabolism expert Prof Timo D. Müller at Helmholtz Munich have developed a new strategy to treat obesity and type 2 diabetes. Their approach uses a specially designed hybrid molecule that takes advantage of the well-known GLP-1/GIP signalling pathway as a kind of entry point into cells. Once…

Scientists discover why Ozempic works better for some people

GLP-1 drugs such as Ozempic have transformed treatment for many people with type 2 diabetes by helping lower blood sugar and support weight loss. But researchers are finding that these medications do not work equally well for everyone. A new study from Japan suggests that a person’s eating habits and…

Al voto per le elezioni locali nel Regno Unito – Notizie – Ansa.it

Nel Regno Unito i seggi elettorali hanno aperto per le elezioni locali, destinate ad aumentare la pressione sul già provato Primo Ministro laburista Keir Starmer e a mettere in luce l’ascesa dei populisti di estrema destra e di sinistra. I seggi hanno aperto alle 7 (le 8 in Italia) in…

Scientists find a way to stop dangerous belly fat as we age

As people get older, both the amount of fat in the body and where it is stored begin to shift. Most body fat is subcutaneous, meaning it sits just beneath the skin. This type of fat is generally not harmful and is actually necessary for overall health. Visceral fat is…

Scientists accidentally discover DNA that breaks the rules of life

A test designed to push the limits of single cell DNA sequencing ended up revealing something far more surprising: a microscopic organism from a pond at Oxford University Parks appears to use the genetic code in a way scientists had not seen before. Dr. Jamie McGowan, a postdoctoral scientist at…

People once risked everything just to keep their hats on

From courtroom standoffs to tense encounters with highway robbers, hats in early modern England carried far more meaning than simple fashion. New research reveals that what people wore on their heads could signal loyalty, rebellion, status, and even personal safety. Today, choosing whether to wear a hat is a personal…

Your DNA may predict your future success more than your upbringing

A major twin study is shedding new light on the long running debate over nature versus nurture, suggesting that genetics may play a far larger role in future success than many people realize. Researchers found that IQ measured at age 23 was strongly connected to socioeconomic status by age 27,…

Scientists reverse diabetes in mice with lab-grown insulin cells

Scientists in Sweden have developed a more reliable way to create insulin-producing cells from human stem cells, bringing new momentum to efforts to treat type 1 diabetes. The research, published in Stem Cell Reports, shows that these lab-grown cells can effectively control blood sugar in tests and even reverse diabetes…

Scientists finally solve 40-year-old physics puzzle about how things grow

Understanding how surfaces grow has long been one of physics’ most important challenges. In 1986, researchers introduced the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation, a theory designed to describe growth across a wide range of systems. Over time, this framework has been applied to everything from crystal formation and population dynamics to flame…

This town found clean energy deep inside old coal mines

Cumberland, British Columbia, grew out of coal mining. For decades, the industry defined daily life, employing thousands of workers and sending millions of tonnes of coal around the world. When mining operations shut down after roughly 80 years, they left behind more than empty tunnels. The closures also created a…

NASA captures wild swirling clouds and rare arctic storm over Alaska

Winter 2026 ended on a dramatic note across southern Alaska. Coastal areas experienced colder-than-average temperatures along with periods of moderate to heavy snowfall. From above, the atmosphere revealed just how unstable conditions had become, with striking cloud formations spreading over the nearby ocean. On March 19, 2026, the final day…

Blue Origin’s new moon lander just survived extreme space testing on Earth

Blue Origin’s MK1 lunar lander, also known as Endurance, is an uncrewed cargo spacecraft designed to test key technologies for future Moon missions. The vehicle is part of a commercial demonstration effort aimed at strengthening Human Landing System capabilities for NASA’s Artemis program. The project highlights a growing public-private collaboration…
