Scientists have uncovered a surprising new role for little-known brain cells called tanycytes that may influence the development of Alzheimer’s disease. These specialized cells appear to help remove toxic tau protein from the brain by transporting it from the cerebrospinal fluid into the bloodstream. When tanycytes become damaged or dysfunctional, tau can accumulate in the brain, a hallmark of Alzheimer’s.

Break out the oxygen masks. The number of breathless headlines is about to soar. SpaceX is expected to file its initial IPO paperwork with the Securities and Exchange Commission any day now. It will be the confidential version, so we won’t get to see it. But what is usually a procedural nonevent for the public has turned into a carnival thanks to the sky-high numbers bankers are throwing around regarding... Read more ›

"Scientists have created a microscopic QR code so tiny it can only be seen with an electron microscope," reports Science Daily. It's "smaller than most bacteria and now officially a world record." "But this isn't just about size; it's about durability. By engraving data into ultra-stable ceramic materials, the team has opened the door to storing information that could last for centuries or even millennia without needing power or maintenance."...

The FBI doesn't need AI to conduct mass surveillance — it just needs access to the commercial data infrastructure that already blankets everyday life. The Guardian's report reveals that the real surveillance debate isn't about algorithms; it's about the vast, already-built ecosystem of databases, data brokers, and legal doctrines that make comprehensive population monitoring possible without a single line of machine learning code.

В прошлой нашей статье мы рассказывали, как написали программу ExoLogica AI для анализа экзопланет. В комментариях Senior Data Scientist'ы справедливо разнесли нас за то, что наша нейросеть ничего не знала об уравнении состояния вещества (не хватало inductive bias).Мы признали критику, ушли переписывать архитектуру и внедрили полноценный Physics-Informed ML. Но когда мы запустили гибридную модель v2.0, мы обнаружили нечто пугающее. Оказалось, что главный астрономический Индекс Подобия Земле (ESI) систематич Read more ›

OpenAI has officially announced the shutdown of Sora, its dedicated social media application, just six months after its high-profile launch. While the underlying Sora 2 generative model remains a technological milestone for video and audio synthesis, the standalone platform failed to maintain the necessary momentum to compete in the crowded social media landscape. Modeled after the vertical-feed interface of TikTok, Sora was designed as an AI-native social network. Its most... Read more ›

Scientists have created a new kind of time crystal using sound waves to levitate tiny beads in mid-air. These particles interact in a one-sided, unbalanced way, breaking the usual rules of motion and creating a steady, repeating rhythm. The system is surprisingly simple yet reveals complex physics with big implications. It could help advance quantum computing and deepen our understanding of biological timing systems. Read more ›

A decades-old superconducting mystery just took a surprising turn. Strontium ruthenate, a material that conducts electricity with zero resistance at low temperatures, has long puzzled scientists with hints of an exotic, complex superconducting state. But by carefully twisting and distorting ultra-thin crystals, researchers found something unexpected: the material barely reacted at all. This challenges years of assumptions and suggests its behavior may be far simpler—or far stranger—than previously thought. Read more ›

Scientists in Australia have demonstrated a prototype quantum battery that could revolutionize energy storage. By harnessing quantum effects, it can absorb energy in a rapid “super absorption” event, enabling much faster charging than conventional batteries. Even more surprisingly, the system becomes more efficient as it scales up. The research opens the door to ultra-fast, next-generation energy technologies. Read more ›

Scientists have uncovered a surprising brain-based trigger for high blood pressure, tracing it to a small region in the brainstem that normally controls breathing. This area, which kicks in during forceful exhalations like coughing, laughing, or exercise, also appears to activate nerves that tighten blood vessels—raising blood pressure. When researchers switched off this region in experiments, blood pressure dropped back to normal, suggesting it plays a direct role in hypertension. Read more ›

A surprising new study reveals that blocking a supposedly protective enzyme, Caspase-2, could actually backfire—raising the risk of chronic liver damage and cancer over time. Researchers found that without this enzyme, liver cells grow abnormally large and accumulate genetic damage, leading to inflammation, scarring, and eventually tumors, especially with age. While inhibiting Caspase-2 may offer short-term benefits, such as reducing fatty liver disease, the long-term consequences appear dangerous. Read more ›

A new blood test could change the outlook for one of the deadliest cancers—pancreatic cancer—by catching it much earlier than ever before. Researchers identified two previously unknown proteins in the blood that, when combined with existing markers, dramatically improved detection accuracy. The four-marker test was able to spot pancreatic cancer in over 90% of cases and performed especially well even in early stages, when treatment has the best chance of... Read more ›

Tiny plastic particles aren’t just choking oceans and cities—they’re quietly infiltrating forests too. Scientists discovered that most microplastics arrive through the air, settling onto treetops before being washed or dropped to the forest floor in rain and falling leaves. Once there, natural processes like leaf decay help bury and store these particles deep in the soil. The findings reveal forests as hidden reservoirs of airborne pollution—and potentially a new frontline... Read more ›

People often get the environmental impact of food wrong, according to new research. While many assume processed foods are the worst, they tend to overlook the surprisingly high impact of items like nuts and underestimate how damaging beef really is. These misunderstandings come from relying on simple categories like “animal vs. plant” rather than the full picture. Read more ›

Scientists have uncovered a hidden “death switch” in the brain that may be driving Alzheimer’s disease—and even found a way to turn it off in mice. The culprit is a toxic pairing of two proteins that, when combined, triggers the destruction of brain cells and fuels memory loss. By using a new compound to break apart this deadly duo, researchers were able to slow disease progression, protect brain cells, and... Read more ›

Researchers have developed a teeth-whitening powder that works with the vibrations of an electric toothbrush to safely remove stains. Unlike traditional whiteners, it not only brightens teeth but also repairs enamel and supports healthy oral bacteria. Lab tests showed dramatic whitening effects, while animal studies revealed reduced harmful microbes and inflammation. This could pave the way for a new generation of at-home dental care. Read more ›
