Scientists built a Spanish app called PreveCan. The goal is to share advice from the World Cancer Research Fund and the American Institute for Cancer Research. These organizations published guidelines in 2018 on how to keep cancer risk low. PreveCan shows tips about diet, exercise, weight, and ot
Scientists have looked beyond the usual parks and reserves to find other lands that could help wildlife survive. They called these places “Other Effective Area‑Based Conservation Measures” or OECMs. The idea is that some areas, even if not officially protected, still play a key role in keeping speci
Scientists have made a new family of tiny sugar molecules that can form glowing gels in many different liquids. The key is adding special light‑producing groups to the sugar core: one version has a naphthalene tag, another uses a benzothiadiazole unit, and the third carries a coumarin ring. All thre
Scientists working behind the scenes aren’t waiting for politicians to act—they’re already using clever tricks to fix Earth’s big problems. One big issue they’re tackling is dirt. By 2050, some places might run out of healthy soil, which is like losing the foundation for growing food. Instead of jus
Scientists have created a better way to see the brain chemical GABA. The new sensor, called iGABASnFR2, is brighter and faster than the first version. It can change its glow quickly when GABA appears, so researchers see signals more clearly. The team made many tiny changes to the protein.
Fanatics is putting a spotlight on women‑run brands for Women’s History Month. The focus isn’t just on the big names; it’s about fresh styles that let fans show support in a modern way. The collection includes WEAR by Erin Andrews, Gameday Couture, and Baublebar. Each brand offers a differe
Scientists have found that a group of man‑made chemicals, called PFAS, can lower bone strength in children. PFAS are used in many everyday items such as non‑stick pans, waterproof clothing and food packaging. They do not break down easily, so they stay in the air, dust, soil and even in about half o
Scientists have spotted a planet that doesn’t fit the usual categories we know. The world, called L 98‑59 d, was first spotted in 2019 but recent telescope data has opened a window into its bizarre climate. It is about one and a half times bigger than Earth, both in size and mass, making it a rocky
Scientists mixed 31 friendly bacteria in soy to make a clear liquid called IBM. They tested whether this drink could stop gut trouble in mice that were given a chemical called DSS to mimic colitis. For one week the mice drank IBM, then another week they received DSS. The researchers checked how sic
Scientists used a simplified computer model to watch how tiny silica particles that repel water attract and bind with a common soap‑like molecule called CTAC. They set up a virtual box 20 nanometers wide and let the system run for 250 nanoseconds at room temperature. The box held one silica particle
