Rhythm is important for human music and speech. But are we the only mammal with a sense of rhythm? Researchers show that seals can discriminate rhythm without prior training. Seals’ rhythmic ability may be linked to their ability to learn vocalisations…

Researchers have identified in mice the cells in the blood vessels of the brain that are necessary for a fever reaction. The results answer a long-standing question of which organs are involved in producing fever.

Why do metastases often only appear after the original tumor has been surgically removed? Scientists have now published an explanation for this phenomenon. They were able to identify a messenger substance of the cancer cells that locally promotes the g…

Remember iron-on decals? All you had to do was print something out on special paper with a home printer, then transfer it onto a T-shirt using an iron. Now, scientists have developed a very similar scheme, but instead of family photos or logos, it prin…
