Animal testing could end in America by 2035, announces EPA
The debate surrounding the practice of testing using animals had remained a stalemate for the longest time. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), however, has finally stepped in and announced that it will stop requiring animal testing on the chemicals it evaluates come 2035. The announcement garnered strong reactions from both scientific circles and animal rights groups. Those in opposition to animal testing […]

An unspoken cooperation: Researchers find that Japanese trees nationwide synchronize their pollen release
Pollen can be a problem during the spring and summer months in some countries around the globe. In people suffering from allergic rhinitis, the presence of pollen can trigger uncontrollable sneezing, raise the pressure in their nose and cheeks and induce rashes. In a recent breakthrough, a team of Japanese researchers used tree pollen data collected […]

Other planets may be home to more diverse life forms than Earth, suggest scientists
The existence of planets orbiting distant stars outside of Earth’s solar system has accelerated the search for life in space. But despite the fact that these planets, called exoplanets, are too far off to explore using current space technologies, scientists think that they might possess a greater potential for life than Earth itself. Stephanie Olson, an astrobiologist […]

Novel study uses magnetic nanoparticles to “burn” cancer cells
Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by the rapid and uncontrollable growth of cells. It is the second leading cause of death in the United States, with nearly 600,000 fatalities reported each year. As one of the most extensively studied human diseases, various cancer treatments have been developed by scientists. One such treatment has been steadily gaining […]

Introducing prebiotics to children helps diminish the negative effects of early life stress
Prebiotics, the fibers that feed the good bacteria in the gut, can protect children from the effects of early life stress (ELS), according to scientists from University College Cork (UCC) in Ireland and Mead Johnson Pediatric Nutrition Institute in Indiana and the Netherlands. Published in the European Journal of Neuroscience, their findings demonstrated that introducing prebiotics to mice that had […]

EFSA independent analysis reveals aspartame is a “neurotoxic additive”
Despite glaring health risks linked to aspartame, a chemical ingredient used in processed foods and drinks, authorities still consider the infamous sugar substitute safe for human consumption. But a pair of scientists from the University of Sussex in the U.K. sounded the alarm on unreliable studies declaring aspartame safe. In particular, the duo blasted a risk assessment […]

The future of algal-biofuels: Study reveals how alga called diatoms harness solar energy for photosynthesis
Scientists from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey (RU) have exposed the mechanisms behind photosynthesis in diatoms, a major group of algae found in the oceans that produce 20 percent of the Earth’s oxygen. Their groundbreaking results, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, demonstrated that diatoms harness light using an active set of […]

Scientists develop brain stimulation techniques using light therapy that offer mental health benefits
Current studies on brain science affirm that light can stimulate brain cells (neurons). This general field and technique is called optogenetics and scientists use it to better understand the neural connections, electrical impulses and chemical signals that occur in the brain. In 2019, Shuo Chen, a postdoctoral scholar at the University of California in Berkeley received […]

Trees talk to each other – science explains how
It turns out, “talking trees” exist beyond science fiction, says actual science. The idea of trees talking – and humans understanding them – is a hot topic in environmental science. But for Suzanne Simard, a biologist and a pioneer of inter-plant communication research from the University of British Columbia, the idea that trees talk isn’t up for debate. In her 1997 […]

Researchers unveil “neural decoder” that can PREDICT what you want to say BEFORE you say it
Neuroscientists can now decode real-time spoken and heard speech signals in the brain into written text. Their groundbreaking research, published in the Nature Communications journal, is the first to demonstrate how a person’s intended speech can be drawn from brain signals and decoded into text before the actual act of speech itself. According to Edward […]
