Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly, whose real name is Colson Baker, have reportedly split up. The news comes after Fox allegedly found something disturbing on Baker's phone during Thanksgiving weekend in Colorado. This is not the first time the couple has faced challenges. Last year, they called off t
Do you know that Tourette Syndrome (TS) might be linked to changes in a specific part of the brain called the basal ganglia? Scientists have been trying to figure this out for a while now. The problem is, there aren't many studies on this, and the ones that exist often don't agree with each other. T
Have you ever thought about how cells manage to turn food into energy? They're like tiny factories, taking in chemicals and converting them into useful stuff. Scientists have been trying to copy this trick by creating teeny bubbles called microcompartments. These bubbles can grow and change, just li
Phosphorescent materials that glow at room temperature, known as RTP materials, have been a hot topic in research. These materials can provide clear images of the body, fight tumors, and kill bacteria all thanks to their unique properties. They have a high signal-to-noise ratio and can produce a lot
Have you ever wondered how we can make oil and water separate quickly and cleanly? Scientists have created a special kind of membrane that can do just that! This membrane is like a 3D sponge made from small molecules linked together. It's also really good at attracting oil (oil-loving, technically s
In the heart of the Amazon rainforest, a dark shadow is spreading. Organized crime groups are making their way into more cities than ever before. A new report tells us that in 2024, these gangs were active in over a third of the municipalities in Brazil's vast Amazon region. That's 260 out of 772 to
In the world of biosensing, enzymes often struggle with stability and efficiency. They can easily break down, and the substances they work on may decompose before the job is done. Scientists have found a clever way to fix this by trapping two essential enzymes, glucose oxidase and horseradish peroxi
Last weekend, Haiti faced a horrifying surge of violence that left almost 200 people dead, many of whom were followers of Vodou. The massacre was allegedly planned by a powerful gang leader who blamed Vodou practitioners for his son's illness. The UN human rights chief, Volker Türk, verified that at
Imagine going to a gymnastics event, thinking it's all about fun and skill. Little did the parents and kids know, the photographer there had a dark secret. David Eric Yellen, a once-trusted figure in Michigan's gymnastics community, was recently sentenced to seven years in prison. The 59-year-old's
Scientists are always looking for ways to make solar cells better, especially for buildings. Current ultra-narrow bandgap solar cells have issues like high energy levels and poor performance. One team has come up with a new idea: use benzothiazole-fused cyanoindone (BTC) as a key part of the solar c
