Anthropic says its Claude agents found a new CRISPR-like enzyme system in phage DNA. A Copenhagen researcher says his team had already identified it, and he is asking what data the model saw.
A University of Copenhagen study of 27 language models finds that AI chatbots offer a narrower range of information than a Google search, raising the risk of 'knowledge collapse' if we rely on them too much.
When people talk about the biology of Alzheimer's disease, the conversation almost always centers on two culprits: amyloid-beta plaques and tau tangles. A new study from Carnegie Mellon University, the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, and the University of... Continue Reading →
On July 20, 2026, mathematician Levent Alpöge posted a strangely casual message on X: "hello there the jacobian conjecture is false thanx to my close friend akhil for asking about it and my other close friend fable for working during... Continue Reading →
Octopuses have long been known as escape artists and problem-solvers, but a new Dartmouth study adds a striking skill to their résumé: they can use mirrors to locate prey hidden out of their line of sight, a form of spatial... Continue Reading →
Researchers at University of Galway have developed a way of bioprinting tissues that change shape as a result of cell-generated forces, in the same way that it happens in biological tissues during organ development. The breakthrough science focused on replicating... Continue Reading →
Microgravity is known to alter the muscles, bones, the immune system and cognition, but little is known about its specific impact on the brain. To discover how brain cells respond to microgravity, Scripps Research scientists, in collaboration with the New... Continue Reading →
Using artificial intelligence, physicists have compressed a daunting quantum problem that until now required 100,000 equations into a bite-size task of as few as four equations — all without sacrificing accuracy. The work, published in the September 23 issue of Physical Review... Continue Reading →
University of Alberta researchers have taken another step forward in developing an artificial intelligence tool to predict schizophrenia by analyzing brain scans. In recently published research, the tool was used to analyze functional magnetic resonance images of 57 healthy first-degree relatives... Continue Reading →
