An experiment in the UK involving geoengineering was recently approved and supported by the UK government. Geoengineering remains a highly controversial topic, but if all goes well in this experiment, we may have a new, successful prevention method for climate change.
While we have long believed that the brain does not retain memories from an early age, new studies show that this may not be the case. Our early memories may not be gone, only locked away.
Due to a lack of organ donors, there has been a shortage of suitable organs for transplants in the U.S. However, new technologies using bioengineered pig organs could be the solution to this problem.
Global warming and Climate Change are causing earth's atmosphere to shrink, leading to the accumulation of space debris in the thermosphere. This accumulation could lead to disastrous impacts on our satellites.
Microplastics and nanoplastics, or MNPs, have recently been discovered to exist in large quantities in the human brain. Currently, it is unknown how these tiny plastic shards get there, or what overall medical impacts they could have.
What is Alice in Wonderland Syndrome? AWIS is a condition that affects how you perceive your surroundings, causing a variety of symptoms, including: a distorted sense of time, perceiving objects as different sizes than in reality, or feeling as if you are split in two.
Gut microbiota, the things responsible for your food digestion, have been discovered to have the ability to relieve stress. Scientists are currently conducting studies to figure out whether or not this knowledge can be used in future pharmaceuticals.
Acellular fish skin grafts have been proven to be faster, less painful, and lower-cost than other common skin grafts. But how does this work, and will fish skin grafts be able to replace the more common ones we use today?
Scientists at the University of Queensland have discovered that the superworm is able to degrade polystyrene (Styrofoam). While these worms may not be used themselves, the scientists are using them to develop a chemical process to degrade the plastics.
Cotard's Syndrome: a rare condition that can cause people to believe they are dead, dying, or even immortal. There are only around 200 known cases of this condition, so how can we diagnose it?
When it comes to AI, not everything you see is true. In the case of elections, misuse of AI is rapidly becoming a problem, spreading misinformation and strengthening voter distrust.
What is Misophonia? Misophonia is a sound sensitivity that can cause intense reactions to hearing certain "trigger" sounds. While there may be no current cures for Misophonia, there are several different ways to lessen the severity.
