Many health studies today rely on digital tools, but reviews of these studies often fall short. Researchers looked at how well these reviews spot strong evidence. The problem? Many don’t. Shaky methods can blur key findings, making it harder to trust what we read. A big issue is how reviews pick st
Every year, Colorado Mountain College gives its students a big stage to showcase their work on sustainability. This year, their free online conference on April 24 will run from 9 AM to noon, focusing on how local research can help mountain communities tackle environmental challenges. The event isn’t
Mixing herbs and spices isn’t just about taste—it’s a smart way to boost your body’s defenses. Scientists found that pairing certain plant compounds, like the fiery capsaicin from chili peppers and the cooling menthol from mint, can supercharge their anti-inflammatory effects by hundreds of times co
Lupus, a tough condition where the immune system attacks the body by mistake, has long been hard to treat. Doctors struggle because the disease varies so much from person to person. Some patients have mild symptoms while others face serious organ damage. For years, treatment options were limited, bu
The European Union is making a bold move to lead the world in quantum computing by teaming up with 13 partners across eight countries in the Lumi-Q project. This effort isn’t about replacing the supercomputers we already rely on. Instead, it’s about combining the strengths of both classical and quan
Neuroscientists often compare the brain to a crowded stadium. A microphone placed in the center can pick up a general hum, but it tells you nothing about individual conversations. To get real insight, scientists must listen to each speaker separately. This idea guides the work of a researcher who st
A recent meeting gathered doctors, researchers, patient groups, regulators and pharma to talk about medicines that stay in the body for weeks or months. The main goal was to make sure pregnant women, nursing mothers and children can safely use these new drugs. Three questions guided the talks:
North Dakota is stepping up as the leader in a new nationwide push to bring smarter technology to farms. The state’s Grand Farm campus, near Fargo, isn’t just joining the effort—it’s running the whole show. This isn’t just another research project. It’s a full-scale test run for farming tech, with t
Every year, over a million Americans get a concussion, often from small accidents like slipping on ice or bumping heads during playtime. Yet when these injuries cause long-term damage, many victims struggle because government support for brain injury research vanished years ago. Experts warn that wi
A new cloud tool from Amazon’s tech branch is letting scientists skip writing code while hunting for new medicines. The system, called Amazon Bio Discovery, comes with ready-made AI models that can sketch, test, and rank potential drug molecules faster than before. Researchers simply pick their targ
