Spanish researchers identified a specific group of neurons in the brain's emotional center that can switch anxiety on and off. Even better, they successfully reversed anxiety and social withdrawal in mice by restoring balance to this circuit.
Researchers at the University of Glasgow invented circuit boards that are 99% compostable, offering a breakthrough solution to the growing mountain of electronic waste. The zinc-based circuits can safely decompose in soil or dissolve in vinegar while performing just as well as traditional boards.
Scientists discovered a brain circuit that drives chronic pain separately from protective acute pain, opening the door to treatments that could help 60 million Americans without dulling their danger responses. When researchers silenced this circuit in mice, chronic pain disappeared while normal pain signals stayed intact.
University of Houston researchers just achieved what many thought impossible: electricity flowing with zero resistance at the highest temperature ever recorded under normal pressure. This breakthrough could transform our power grids and save billions in wasted energy.
Researchers have engineered the first artificial electrical connection that can strengthen specific brain circuits, opening doors to treatments for neurological conditions. This breakthrough lets scientists precisely edit how brain cells communicate without affecting surrounding tissue.
India's 2026 budget introduces a Buddhist Circuit connecting six northeastern states to boost tourism and preserve ancient heritage sites. The initiative aims to transform overlooked regions into thriving pilgrimage destinations.
UCLA researchers discovered that the same brain circuits that drive mice to care for their babies also motivate them to comfort distressed adults. This breakthrough could unlock new treatments for conditions affecting social connection.
The team behind the world's largest particle accelerator just released thousands of electronics components for free. Circuit designers worldwide can now access the same professional parts library used by Europe's top physics research facility.
Researchers created BioConNet, a programmable system that grows human brain-like neural circuits in a lab dish, opening new paths to understand and treat dementia and ALS. They're sharing the blueprints free with the world.
Singapore's new AI-powered driving circuit will let learners practice independently with cameras and sensors monitoring every move, expanding training capacity and offering flexible scheduling. The technology aims to provide objective feedback while keeping human examiners for road tests.
Researchers in India discovered how the brain uses stress to naturally suppress itching, opening doors to better treatments for millions suffering from chronic itch. The breakthrough reveals a specific neural circuit that could transform how we treat conditions like psoriasis.
Scientists at UC Berkeley have mapped the exact brain circuits that release growth hormone during deep sleep, revealing how rest directly rebuilds your body and sharpens your mind. This breakthrough could lead to new treatments for sleep disorders, diabetes, and brain diseases.
Scientists built the world's first superconducting quantum heat engine that turns near-absolute-zero heat into useful work. The breakthrough could eliminate millions of costly cables currently needed for large-scale quantum computers.
Researchers have engineered a molecular tool that can strengthen connections between specific brain cells, opening new possibilities for treating neurological conditions. The breakthrough could one day help restore lost functions in patients with brain injuries or diseases.
Scientists have discovered the exact brain pathway that decides whether new experiences get filed separately or merged together—and they can control it in both directions. The breakthrough could lead to new treatments for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, where memories blend together incorrectly.
Engineers just solved a decade-old problem that lets 3D printers add electronics to living tissue without burning it. The breakthrough could mean smart implants that warn doctors before they fail.
University of Toronto researchers have discovered the specific brain pathway that causes pain to worsen when we expect it to hurt. The breakthrough could finally validate and treat pain that's often dismissed as "imaginary."
A Malaysian physicist just became a principal investigator at one of China's top universities at age 28, years ahead of the usual timeline. His breakthrough discovery in superconductivity is opening doors that typically stay closed until mid-career.
