Reports on genetic engineering, biodiversity, peer-reviewed longevity studies, and the academic publishing ecosystem.
Physicists at CERN's CMS experiment have made the most precise measurement yet of a quantum asymmetry thought to explain why the universe contains matter at all. The results, drawn from three years of collider data, confirm the Standard Model but tighten the net around any hidden new physics.
Teeth and jaw fragments from a Queensland fossil site have led scientists to propose a new marsupial order that may have lived on the continent for 35 million years. The lineage left no known descendants.
Scientists in Vienna have formally proposed a new category of natural material, dubbed "bio-metals", after studying the metal-reinforced jaws of a common marine bristle worm. The findings, could guide the design of tough, lightweight materials produced without industrial forges or furnaces.
New satellite maps and recent drilling expeditions have revealed a continent beneath the continent: mountains as tall as the Alps, more than 400 liquid lakes, and microbial life sealed in darkness for millions of years. The discoveries are reshaping how scientists model sea-level rise.
Anthropic has released Claude Science, an AI workbench that unifies scientific databases, code execution, and computing infrastructure in a single environment. The platform, now in beta for paying subscribers, is aimed squarely at computational biology and pharmaceutical research.
