Did you know that your belly is home to trillions of tiny creatures, often called gut bacteria? These little guys are not just there for the ride; they're working hard to keep us safe from nasty chemicals like chlorpyrifos. This pesticide is no friend to our liver and kidneys, but some gut bacteria
Celery, a key player in the vegetable world, has many forms. There's common celery, known for its solid, crisp stalks, celeriac with its fleshy, underground stems, and leaf celery, which has long, hollow stalks. Here's where things get interesting: scientists recently created a detailed map of the c
In 2024, artificial intelligence (AI) showed its power in surprising ways. Scientists used AI and X-rays to read ancient scrolls from Herculaneum, Italy, that were buried by the Mount Vesuvius eruption in 79 AD. These scrolls are so delicate they can't be unrolled, but AI helped decode over 2, 000 c

Imagine diving into a world invisible to the naked eye—the world of microbes in wastewater. In Africa, this approach, known as metagenomics, offers a treasure trove of insights. By analyzing wastewater, scientists can keep tabs on public health, track nasty bugs that resist medicines, and even find
Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to revolutionize radiotherapy (RT) by saving time and enhancing quality. However, the adoption of AI in RT still faces hurdles. To tackle this, researchers turned to implementation science to create a framework for designing an AI implementation strateg
Ever wondered how the health of our land affects our societies? Let's explore the fascinating connection between physical, natural, and social sciences. Scientists are delving into critical essays and case studies to understand how societies interact with land degradation and desertification. Imagi
Imagine tiny warriors, so small they can sneak into cancer cells undetected. These mini boosters are like secret agents, evading the body's usual defenses. Scientists are working hard to make these tools even better and safer for patients. It's a tough fight, but each small win matters. The journey
