The surprising way metabolism controls embryo growth

Pregnant women rely on a balanced diet and supplements to deliver proper nutrients to their babies, to ensure they grow healthfully. Such nutrients contribute to fueling development and providing cellular building blocks that lead to healthy brains, bones, organs, and immune systems. While this kind of nutritional preparation helps during…

In Costa Smeralda ville a peso d’oro – Notizie – Ansa.it

“Noi non vendiamo la casa, qui vendiamo il concetto: l’abitazione non è il primo centro di attenzione del cliente, arriva prima la località, le emozioni che il territorio sa regalare”. È un’idea di vendita che nulla ha a che fare con l’edificio in sé, ma parte da un racconto, quello…

Neutrinos may be the hidden force behind gold and platinum

The collision and merger of two neutron stars — the incredibly dense remnants of collapsed stars — are some of the most energetic events in the universe, producing a variety of signals that can be observed on Earth. New simulations of neutron star mergers by a team from Penn State…

Così i dipinti diventano ologrammi – Scienza e arte – Ansa.it

Una nuova tecnologia promette di portare ad un altro livello la crescente tendenza a realizzare dipinti e altre opere d’arte sempre più realistiche e tridimensionali: lo studio in via di pubblicazione sulla rivista Royal Society Open Science dimostra, infatti, che è possibile trasformare un’opera fatta di diversi strati in un…

Hubble reveals baby stars in a galaxy torn by gravity

This new Hubble Space Telescope Picture of the Week features a galaxy whose asymmetric appearance may be the result of a galactic tug of war. Located 35 million light-years away in the constellation Leo, the spiral galaxy Messier 96 is the brightest of the galaxies in its group. The gravitational…

NASA just confirmed its 6,000th alien world. Some are truly bizarre

The official number of exoplanets — planets outside our solar system — tracked by NASA has reached 6,000. Confirmed planets are added to the count on a rolling basis by scientists from around the world, so no single planet is considered the 6,000th entry. The number is monitored by NASA’s…

Scientists just made atoms talk to each other inside silicon chips

UNSW engineers have made a significant advance in quantum computing: they created ‘quantum entangled states’ – where two separate particles become so deeply linked they no longer behave independently – using the spins of two atomic nuclei. Such states of entanglement are the key resource that gives quantum computers their…

Strange new hybrid bird spotted in Texas backyard

Biologists at The University of Texas at Austin, who have reported discovering a bird that’s the natural result of a green jay and a blue jay’s mating, say it may be among the first examples of a hybrid animal that exists because of recent changing patterns in the climate. The…

Hidden gene trick lets ants smell with super precision

Ant societies are built on scent. Pheromones guide the insects to food, warn them of predators, and regulate the rhythms of their colonies. This chemical communication system is governed by a simple rule: one receptor, one neuron. Ant genomes contain hundreds of odorant receptor genes, each encoding a receptor tuned…

Stunning fossil from the Gobi Desert rewrites dinosaur history

A “teenaged” pachycephalosaur from Mongolia’s Gobi Desert may provide answers to lingering questions around the dinosaur group, according to new research published on September 17 in the journal Nature. The fossil represents a new species of pachycephalosaur and is both the oldest and most complete skeleton of this dinosaur group found…

This stunning X-ray advance could help detect cancer earlier

When German physicist Wilhelm Röntgen discovered X-rays in the late 1800s while experimenting with cathode ray tubes, it was a breakthrough that transformed science and medicine. So much so that the basic concept remains in use today. But a team of researchers at Sandia National Laboratories believes they’ve found a…

Simple therapies outperform drugs for knee arthritis pain relief

Knee braces, water therapy and exercise are the most promising non-drug therapies for treating knee osteoarthritis, according to a new meta-analysis publishing June 18, 2025 in the open-access journal PLOS One by Yuan Luo of the First People’s Hospital of Neijiang, China. Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a common and often…

Clear skin in a week with this breakthrough acne patch

Waking up with a pimple is no longer cause for panic, thanks to pimple patches — small, sticker-like bandages that cover and help heal the unwanted zit. A team of researchers publishing in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces has designed a two-stage pimple patch set with an array of tiny…

New breath sensor detects diabetes quickly and easily

In the U.S., one in five of the 37 million adults who has diabetes doesn’t know it. Current methods of diagnosing diabetes and prediabetes usually require a visit to a doctor’s office or lab work, both of which can be expensive and time-consuming. Now, diagnosing diabetes and prediabetes may be…

DNA from old ants reveals a hidden insect apocalypse in Fiji

From pollinating flowers to enabling decomposition and supporting nutrient cycles, insects’ abundance and biodiversity are critical for maintaining healthy ecosystems. However, recent studies showing population declines have raised alarm about how insects are coping with the modern world. Understanding whether recent observations are part of longer timescale trends can help…
