The IPL 2026 final between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Gujarat Titans is set to repeat the playoff start, offering fans a full-circle moment. All eyes are on Ahmedabad’s sky and the fitness of Phil Salt, whose inclusion remains unclear. Teams often hide injury news until the last minute, and ton
Scientists are now using artificial intelligence to design small protein rings that can fine-tune the body’s immune responses. These rings, called cyclic peptides, act like tiny light switches for immune cells. Instead of turning lights on or off, they control whether immune cells get activated or s
Over the last ten years sci-fi has become less about rockets and more about real-world fears mixed with playful ideas. Writers now mix heavy topics like climate change or artificial minds with stories that feel closer to today than to some distant galaxy. Some of these tales leapt from shelves to sc
Scientists tested new sun-blocking chemicals inspired by a popular sunscreen ingredient. They created versions that stay stable in sunlight and protect skin better. Two of these new chemicals stood out. One absorbs mostly UVA rays, the strongest aging rays from the sun. The other blocks both UVA and
Russia is scrambling to get its hands on advanced technology from the West, not just to keep its military running but to stay relevant in the long run.

Choosing between a 4K TV and a 4K projector isn’t just about money—it’s about how you use the space. Projectors often cost more upfront, but that changes when screen size jumps past 85 inches. At that point, a good projector might match a TV’s price while giving you a much bigger picture. Still, not
Across Europe, many Syrian refugees say they feel more lonely and worried than before. In Germany and Sweden, two studies tried a new way to help: smartphone apps. The apps gave refugees small ideas to feel better—like tips on sleep or ways to talk with others. The twist? The apps were mostly self-g
Research shows that the bond between a patient and therapist can shape how well therapy works. But does this connection matter for people in the justice system? A review looked at studies to find out. They searched big databases for articles on therapy with people who had committed crimes. They pick
Researchers have begun using computer‑made pictures to study how people feel. These synthetic images are created by artificial intelligence that learns from real photos and then invents new ones. The advantage is clear: scientists can control every detail of a picture, such as lighting or facial exp
Missouri will enforce a new rule that stops power and gas companies from cutting off service when it’s too hot. The change takes effect on June 1 and runs until September 30. The rule protects people who rely on electricity or gas for air conditioning. If the National Weather Service says that temp
