The age of the oldest fossils in eastern Africa widely recognised as representing our species, Homo sapiens, has long been uncertain.
Scientists have found evidence that a type of the antibiotic-resistant superbug MRSA arose in nature long before the use of antibiotics in humans and livestock, which has traditionally been blamed for its emergence.
Spin-off company Cambridge Raman Imaging Ltd. and the Cambridge Graphene Centre will lead ‘CHARM’ project, recently awarded with €3.2 million
A Texas A&M teamhas developed a new class of biomaterial inks that mimic native characteristics of highly conductive human tissue.
Research from Texas A&M could untether patients from bulky cuffed devices by applying small strips of graphene to the skin to collect cardiovascular data.
A new way of dating collisions between asteroids and planetary bodies throughout our Solar System’s history could help scientists reconstruct how and when planets were born.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is on the cusp of driving an agricultural revolution, and helping confront the challenge of feeding our growing global population in a sustainable way. But researchers warn that using new AI technologies at scale holds huge risks that are not being considered.
Carr's current work explores how galaxies' atmosphere keeps them from forming too many stars.
Researchers are using photodynamic therapy to break the dangerous cycle of fighting increasingly resistant bacteria with increasingly stronger antibiotics.
Statistics tools support the idea that all radio bursts may repeat if observed long enough.
With full genetic control and visibility into neural activity and behavior, MIT scientists map out chemical’s role in behavior.
An analysis of human brain cells provides new evidence in support of the “amyloid hypothesis,” the prevailing idea that Alzheimer's is caused by the accumulation of beta-amyloid proteins in the brain.
Using insights into how people intuit others’ emotions, researchers have designed a model that approximates this aspect of human social intelligence.
People who lost loved ones were asked in a study to recall moments of grief. Their blood pressure escalated as a result.
A Rice University report released in February showed that people affected by natural disasters generally have a lower amount of overall trust in government.
The University of Houston released a market study in December that showed the increasing purchasing power of Latino millennials, a crucial element for the consumer segment that demands attention from retailers and creators.

The concept known as IDSov emphasizes Indigenous Peoples' right to control data about their people, lands and cultures. Stephanie Russo Carroll, associate director of the University of Arizona Native Nations Institute, has focused her career on encouraging institutions to adopt policies and practices that recognize that right.
A University of Arizona Health Sciences-led study found that more than 50% of people don't fully trust AI-powered medical advice, but many put faith in AI if it's monitored and guided by human touch.
A team led by a University of Arizona College of Medicine – Tucson scientist harnesses artificial intelligence to trace the path from a healthy brain cell to one afflicted by Alzheimer's disease.
