In the vast, rugged landscapes of eastern Wyoming, a remarkable discovery was made over a century ago. A dinosaur mummy, preserved in clay, offered a glimpse into the past. Recently, a team of researchers, led by paleontologist Paul Sereno, set out to uncover more about this ancient creature. The j
Our memories are not fixed records of the past but rather flexible stories that our brains tell ourselves. Every time we recall something, our brains tweak the details, sometimes creating false memories. This isn't always a bad thing. Scientists are exploring how we can manipulate memories to improv
Recent findings have shown a surprising tie between blood sugar and the health of the aorta, the main blood vessel from the heart. Researchers looked at five blood sugar factors: type 2 diabetes, fasting glucose, fasting insulin, glycated hemoglobin, and post-meal glucose. Higher levels of these fac
Sleep apnea might seem like just a noisy nighttime nuisance, but it's more than that. It's a serious condition that can affect your brain health. New research shows that moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea is linked to tiny bleeds in the brain. These bleeds, called microbleeds, become more co
The Chicago Bulls have kicked off their season with a perfect 5-0 record, a feat not seen since the days of Michael Jordan. This time, it's not just one star carrying the team, but a group effort that's making waves. Josh Giddey, a young talent, has stepped up with a standout performance, scoring a
Chimpanzees have always been fascinating creatures, showing behaviors that remind us of humans. They can get tipsy, follow trends, and now, they've shown they can think rationally too. A group of scientists from the Netherlands wanted to see if chimps could change their minds when they see new evide
People with a brain disease called multiple sclerosis (MS) often take a medicine named dimethyl fumarate (DMF). This drug helps to ease the symptoms of MS. But how exactly does it work? Scientists wanted to find out. They did some tests on mice to see what happens. First, they gave the mice a subst
Pete Hegseth, the Pentagon chief, recently spoke out against China's actions in the South China Sea, calling them destabilizing. He was in Kuala Lumpur for meetings with allies like Australia, Japan, and the Philippines. Hegseth offered to help Southeast Asian countries by sharing technology to moni
The final match of the Sierra Grande High School volleyball team's season was a nail-biter. They faced off against Sangre de Cristo in a game that went the full four sets. The Panthers, as they're known, started strong, winning the first two sets. But Sangre de Cristo fought back, taking the third s
Humans stand out among primates because they walk on two legs. This ability didn't just happen by chance. It turns out, two small changes in our DNA played a big role in this unique trait. Researchers recently made an exciting discovery. They found that these genetic tweaks altered how a key hip bo
