And it can affect all of us.

Some of us are cursed to hear the future.

Research project aims to discover how age, size and shape of woodlands affect people’s happiness and wellbeing

Purdue University researchers’ discovery not only sheds light on life’s origins on Earth, but could help save lives by enhancing medicinal chemistry reactions

The nature of consciousness and the measurement problem in quantum physics remain two of the greatest mysteries in science. Is it possible they are connected?

Brilliant flashes could be a clue.

Early life may have been far more like animals than we thought, suggests new research that shows bacteria can 'develop' like an embryo.

Study shows cognition in early-stage patients on lecanemab declines by 27% less than those on placebo

Researchers have found that eating cranberries could improve memory, ward off dementia, and reduce 'bad' cholesterol. The research team studied the benefits of consuming the equivalent of a cup of cranberries a day among 50 to 80-year-olds. They hope that their findings could have implications for the prevention of neurodegenerative diseases such as dementia.

Alzheimer's disease has long thwarted our best efforts to pinpoint its underlying causes.
