Birds, not wind, brought life to Iceland’s youngest island

When the volcanic island of Surtsey emerged from the North Atlantic Ocean in 1963, it presented scientists with a rare natural experiment: a chance to watch life begin on untouched land. For many years, ecologists assumed that plants reached remote islands mainly through special traits that allowed long-distance travel, such…

2.7-million-year-old tools reveal humanity’s first great innovation

For nearly 300,000 years, early humans shaped stone tools with precision, even as they faced constant wildfires, severe droughts, and dramatic shifts in their environment. A new study published in Nature Communications reveals astonishing evidence of this long-lived technological tradition in Kenya’s Turkana Basin. At the Namorotukunan Site, an international…

This new drug candidate might finally outsmart tuberculosis

Scientists have created a promising new compound that could mark a major step forward in the global effort to control tuberculosis, the world’s deadliest infectious disease. A new study in Nature highlights the potential of this compound, called CMX410, which targets a key enzyme in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacterium that…

Walking may be the brain’s best defense against Alzheimer’s

Walking a few thousand steps daily may help hold off Alzheimer’s for years, a Mass General Brigham study found. Even moderate physical activity slowed both cognitive decline and the buildup of harmful tau proteins in the brain. The researchers say these results show lifestyle changes can meaningfully delay Alzheimer’s symptoms,…
