A new international analysis suggests there may be a surprisingly simple secret to keeping weight off after dieting: walking about 8,500 steps a day. Researchers found that people who boosted their daily steps to around that level during a weight-loss program — and kept it up afterward — were far more successful at avoiding the frustrating cycle of regaining lost weight. The study highlights a major challenge in obesity treatment, since most people regain much of the weight they lose within a few years.

The Boring Billion is the name geologists give to the stretch between roughly 1.8 and 0.8 billion years ago, when low-oxygen oceans slowed complex life — but evolution did not pause and Earth was not simply a billion years of slime

For roughly a billion years — from 1.8 to 0.8 billion years ago — Earth's oceans went chemically stagnant, oxygen stalled, and life did nothing much except reproduce as microbial slime. Geologists call it the Boring Billion, and it is the longest uneventful chapter in the planet's history. Read more

A UCLA study has identified a hidden Achilles' heel in aggressive small cell cancers that have resisted new treatments for decades. Scientists found that tumors lacking the RB gene become critically dependent on the protein E2F3 for survival. Blocking E2F3 shut down tumor growth in laboratory models, and existing FDA-approved drugs may be able to exploit this vulnerability. The discovery could pave the way for faster development of more effective... Read more
