A new screening test app could help advance the early detection of Parkinson’s disease and severe COVID-19, improving the management of these illnesses. Developed by a research team of engineers and neurologists, the test can produce accurate results u…
A new study of a tiny Triassic fossil reptile first discovered over 100 years ago in the north east of Scotland has revealed it to be a close relative of the species that would become pterosaurs — iconic flying reptiles of the age of the dinosaurs.

In a recent study, researchers predict disruptions in the immune system that can lead to long-term or severe COVID-19.
In the brain of adult mammals neural stem cells ensure that new nerve cells, i.e. neurons, are constantly formed. This process, known as adult neurogenesis, helps mice maintain their sense of smell. A research team recently discovered a second stem cel…
Older people exposed to food flavors from their youth were able to ‘time travel’ back to the past with an enhanced memory of the event. For food memory, the researchers worked with the participants to create bespoke flavor-based cues for each one. The …

Researchers have reported that nitrate accumulated in soil bordering streams plays an important role in the increase of nitrate levels in stream water when it rains. Their findings may help reduce nitrogen pollution and improve water quality in downstr…
A new study may have solved a mystery surrounding Crohn’s disease, an inflammatory bowel illness where immune defenses, meant to attack invading microbes, instead mistakenly target the body’s own digestive tract. Norovirus, a common infection that caus…
Scientists have shown that in one in every 4,000 births, some of the genetic code from our mitochondria — the ‘batteries’ that power our cells — inserts itself into our DNA, revealing a surprising new insight into how humans evolve. Researchers show …
Astronomers have discovered a stellar binary, or pair of stars, with an extremely short orbit, appearing to circle each other every 51 minutes. The system seems to be one of a rare class of binaries known as a ‘cataclysmic variable,’ in which a star si…
Engineers have created shape-memory materials made of ceramic rather than of traditional metal. The development opens a new range of applications, especially for actuators in high-temperature settings.
