The safety of medicines can be hurt by light and heat, so scientists must test how drugs stand up to these forces. Traditional tools like HPLC, DSC and GC‑MS take time, need extra steps, and often look at light damage and heat damage separately. A new approach called microwave plasma torch mass spec
Machine learning has changed how we predict weather and decode proteins, but scientists who study the ocean still face a problem: most models act like black boxes that give answers without explaining why. A new idea tackles this issue by using a technique called symbolic regression, which searche
The foreign minister of Oman, Badr bin Hamad Al Busaidi, is working behind the scenes to keep U. S. and Iranian leaders talking about Tehran’s nuclear program.

He said he would be willing to improve relations if Washington officially recognized the country as a nuclear‑armed state. The congress, held every five years, is a key momen
Scientists have created a new chemical that can boost the activity of a special type of brain receptor called GluN3. These receptors are part of the larger NMDA family, which normally help brain cells talk to each other. Most research has focused on receptors that contain a different part, GluN2, bu
