Professional race car drivers push their bodies to extreme limits every race—speed, precision, even danger. But behind the thrill of the track lies a hidden risk: repeated hits to the head. Whether from big crashes or constant small jolts, these impacts add up over time. Even when drivers don’t get
This year’s standout young researchers and entrepreneurs in Asia are tackling big challenges in science and healthcare. Their work spans from decoding brain signals to designing AI tools that respect privacy. Some, like Hikari Okita, dive deep into genetics, studying xeno-nucleic acids (XNA). Unlike
France and Norway just announced they’ll talk about France protecting Norway with its nuclear weapons if needed. This new idea shows how European countries are trying to depend less on the U. S. for their safety. For years, Norway trusted NATO and America’s nuclear shield. Now, it’s looking closer
The journey of a child with brain cancer in Ghana often starts long before the hospital door opens. Health workers on the ground report that delays and shortages are not just random hiccups; they stem from deeper, system‑wide issues. One key obstacle is the shortage of specialized neurosurgeons a
Western Europe is experiencing an extreme heat event that has pushed temperatures to new highs. London recently recorded a May temperature of about 95°F, while parts of France reached nearly 99°F and Spain exceeded 100°F. The cause is a high‑pressure “heat dome” that traps hot air over the region, s
Los Angeles voters are seeing a very unusual race for mayor this year. One candidate stands out not just for his fame, but for how he’s shaking up the usual rules.

Politicians and late-night TV hosts often lock horns, but few feuds get as personal (or as public) as this one. Earlier this week, a well-known health official made a claim about late-night comedy struggling, only to get schooled by a comedian who saw straight through the politics. The official sugg
Blurry lights and odd colors in night shots usually come from flare—those unwanted bright spots caused by strong light sources. Most photo-fixing tools ignore how flare mixes with the real light in the scene, so they often leave behind messy patches of wrong colors or fuzzy edges. A new approach tri
For years, ADHD was mostly linked to kids who couldn’t sit still. Now, adults—especially women—are getting diagnosed long after childhood. Why? One big reason might be that doctors are finally listening instead of dismissing complaints about forgetfulness or messy thoughts as “just stress” or “bad h
Two companies want to team up. One holds private data shaped like a network: hospitals see how diseases spread, banks track transaction patterns. The other has a secret AI model that makes sense of such data to predict risks or trends. But neither can share their secrets directly—client privacy rule
