From sea lettuce adorning tidal pools and bull kelp left in windrows at the high tide line to towering underwater forests of giant kelp providing refuge and food for countless species, British Columbia's seaweeds are both prominently visible along shorelines and hidden from sight in the deep.
A new perspective paper published in Frontiers in Nutrition argues that current public health recommendations for physical activity and protein intake are designed to prevent deficiency rather than maximize long-term health, independence and quality of life. The paper explores first-principles questions: How much protein should you have? What exercises should you be doing? What does the latest science tell us?
Whether it's to the moon or Mars, a NASA mission requires some essential preparations: designing and developing the spacecraft, astronaut training and safety checks, clear goals, and strategies and procedures for maintaining communication between crews on Earth and in space.
There is a more than 60% chance that a "super" El Niño will develop by the end of this year.
A comprehensive analysis of 173,303 genomes from Pakistan, published today in Nature, is upending how scientists understand human genetics and drug development. By identifying 34,000 people who are "human knockouts," with complete loss of function of at least one gene, the study reveals variation in the human genome needed to shape new treatments for human diseases while also illuminating why drugs developed in mice often fail in humans.
Europe's first and only TES spectrometer at a synchrotron source is now in operation at BESSY II, developed within a collaboration between the HZB, the MPI-CEC (Mühlheim-an-der-Ruhr, Germany) and the NIST (Boulder, Colorado, U.S.). The photon detection efficiency of the new instrument exceeds that of wavelength-dispersive X-ray emission spectrometers by a factor of 100 to 1,000. It will be used to investigate the electronic properties of atomically thin layers, nanostructures and highly diluted atomic and molecular samples. The team is looking forward to receiving exciting research proposals from the user community.
Some stars have planets. Others are orbited by brown dwarfs, balls of gas too massive to be planets, but too low-mass to be stars. Astronomers love these brown dwarf-star pairs because being paired with a star helps reveal a brown dwarf’s age. Ages of astronomical objects are often hard to measure, but essential for understanding […] The post Search for Hidden Cosmic Companions in Sun’s Backyard appeared first on NASA Science.
In Toy Story 5, Woody, Buzz, Jessie and the gang are up against a new challenge: Bonnie's tablet. Even Rex, the toy dinosaur, is worried about going extinct again.

Dr. Shing-Chi Leung, assistant professor of physics at SUNY Polytechnic Institute, has published the article "Primordial Black Hole Triggered Type Ia Supernovae II: Comparison with Supernova Remnants and Galactic Chemical Evolution" in The Astrophysical Journal. The paper was co-authored by SUNY Poly student Seth Walther, a senior majoring in electrical and computer engineering and applied mathematics with a minor in physics; Alexander Kusenko (UCLA); Ken'ichi Nomoto (Kavli IPMU, recipient of the 2026 Shaw Prize in Astronomy and the 2026 Gruber Cosmology Prize); and Tomoharu Suzuki (Chubu University).
Immune checkpoint inhibitors are a form of cancer immunotherapy successfully used to treat a wide range of cancers. However, these treatments can cause side effects including immune-related colitis, or inflammation of the bowel, which affects up to 50% of patients. Researchers at Peter Mac have developed an Australian-first digital tool that can rapidly and accurately identify cancer patients who have developed immune-related colitis, one of the most common and potentially serious side effects of immunotherapy treatment.
New research from the University of St. Andrews is calling on employers to rethink flexible-working policies, warning that current approaches fail to reflect increasingly blurred boundaries between work and personal life.
Hundreds of genes have been linked to autism, yet the precise molecular and cellular mechanisms behind it remain largely unclear. A new study published in Nature, led by Gaia Novarino at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA), aims to uncover these mechanisms and, in doing so, might lay the groundwork for developing medical therapies.
Why settle for a trial-and-error approach, reviewing an almost endless number of combinations, when you can systematically narrow the list to something more manageable using established data and knowledge?
A new gene therapy appears to be safe in patients diagnosed with Friedreich ataxia cardiomyopathy, a progressive and fatal inherited cardiac disease, according to a phase 1 clinical trial led by Weill Cornell Medicine researchers. The treatment may also reduce heart damage, although further investigation is needed.
Methane is one of the most powerful greenhouse gases, and lakes and wetlands are among its largest natural sources. In many lakes, methane can be seen bubbling up from the bottom and escaping directly into the atmosphere.
The GCAT|Genomes for Life team, a strategic project of the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute (IGTP), has developed PolyGenie, a new tool designed to facilitate the exploration and reuse of genomic data by the research community. This initiative represents a further step in the project's strategy to promote FAIR data, reusable resources, and open infrastructures for biomedical research. The platform and its application to the GCAT cohort are described in an article published in the journal NAR Genomics and Bioinformatics.

A multidisciplinary team of researchers at the University of Wisconsin–Madison has identified a promising new therapeutic candidate against Candida auris, an emerging fungal pathogen that has alarmed health officials worldwide because of its ability to resist multiple antifungal drugs and spread rapidly through hospitals and care facilities.
Every day, millions of people play Wordle, the popular New York Times game that challenges users to guess a secret five-letter word. Using information theory, a team of researchers at Binghamton University, State University of New York, has developed a method to solve the game with a 99% success rate.
