A large study of nearly 16,000 adults found no link between eating animal protein and higher death risk. Surprisingly, higher ...

Scientists have identified compounds that block bitter taste receptors activated by saccharin and acesulfame K. The most promising is (R)-(-)-carvone, which reduces bitterness without the cooling side ...

UBC researchers revealed that gut bacteria can digest cellulose-based food thickeners, once thought indigestible, by using ...

Scientists have discovered that electron spin loss, long considered waste, can instead drive magnetization switching in ...

Researchers cracked the mystery of altermagnets, materials with no net magnetization yet strange light-reflecting powers, by ...

Defects in spintronic materials, once seen as limitations, may now be key to progress. Chinese researchers discovered that ...

A Rochester team engineered a new type of solar thermoelectric generator that produces 15 times more power than earlier ...

Scientists have discovered that a gene called MUC19, inherited from Denisovans through ancient interbreeding, may have played a vital role in helping Indigenous ancestors adapt as they migrated into ...

Ripple bugs’ fan-like legs inspired engineers to build the Rhagobot, a tiny robot with self-morphing fans. By mimicking these insects’ passive, ultra-fast movements, the robot gains speed, control, ...

Researchers discovered that heart failure patients with inconsistent sleep patterns were more than twice as likely to ...

Researchers discovered that bees use flight movements to sharpen brain signals, enabling them to recognize patterns with ...

Scientists have developed a groundbreaking cryo-optical microscopy technique that freezes living cells mid-action, capturing ...
