A team of researchers has shown that even small-scale quantum computers can enhance machine learning performance, using a novel photonic quantum circuit. Their findings suggest that today s quantum technology isn t just experimental it can already outperform classical systems in specific tasks. Notably, this photonic approach could also drastically reduce energy consumption, offering a sustainable path forward as machine learning s power needs soar.

Scientists have discovered a direct cause-and-effect link between faulty mitochondria and the memory loss seen in neurodegenerative diseases. By creating a novel tool to boost mitochondrial activity in mouse models, researchers restored memory performance, suggesting mitochondria could be a powerful new target for treatments. The findings not only shed light on the early drivers of brain cell degeneration but also open possibilities for slowing or even preventing diseases like Alzheimer’s. Read more ›

Scientists have discovered how harmful clumps inside brain cells—linked to diseases like ALS and Huntington’s—form, and found a way to break them apart. These sticky tangles of RNA develop inside tiny liquid-like droplets in cells and can linger long after their surroundings vanish. By introducing a special protein, the team could stop the clumps from forming, and with a custom-designed piece of RNA, they could even dissolve them. Read more ›

Scientists have discovered a parasite that can sneak into your skin without you feeling a thing. The worm, Schistosoma mansoni, has evolved a way to switch off the body’s pain and itch signals, letting it invade undetected. By blocking certain nerve pathways, it avoids triggering the immune system’s alarms. This stealth tactic not only helps the worm survive, but could inspire new kinds of pain treatments and even preventative creams... Read more ›

Astronomers have stumbled upon an incredible cosmic chain reaction: a young star launched a high-speed jet that ignited an explosion, creating a massive bubble in space that is now slamming back into the very star system that birthed it. This startling feedback loop, caught for the first time using ALMA data, may reshape what we know about how stars and planets form, and the volatile environments they endure. Nature, it...

A visionary plan proposes sending a paperclip-sized spacecraft, powered by Earth-based lasers, to a nearby black hole within a century. Led by astrophysicist Cosimo Bambi, the mission would test the limits of general relativity and explore the mysteries of event horizons. While current technology can t yet achieve it, advancements in nanocraft design, laser propulsion, and black hole detection could make the journey possible within decades, potentially rewriting the laws...
