NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte's strategic flattery of President Donald Trump has been crucial in maintaining U.S. engagement with the alliance, despite Trump's initial criticisms and demands, illustrating a delicate balance of power and diplomacy.
A neuroscientist examines the viral story of Jimothy, a Seattle raccoon with short spine syndrome, highlighting how his complex brain capabilities and dedicated maternal care allowed him to overcome disability and survive in the wild.
India's urban rivers, including the Yamuna, Mithi, Musi, Cooum, and Vrishabhavathi, are severely degraded, shrinking due to unchecked urban expansion, encroachment, and pollution from untreated sewage and industrial waste, despite significant government investments.
A study reveals how the tapeworm Anomotaenia brevis extends the lifespan of Temnothorax nylanderi worker ants. The parasite alters the ant's gene expression, making its fat body resemble that of a long-lived queen, while dampening brain activity to reduce work and increase survival for the parasite's life cycle.
An article explores Ernesto "Che" Guevara's 1960 quote prioritizing human life over material wealth, tracing its philosophical roots to Immanuel Kant and examining its relevance to modern challenges in healthcare, housing, and technology, where economic systems often prioritize property rights over human well-being.
A study reveals how the tapeworm Anomotaenia brevis extends the lifespan of Temnothorax nylanderi worker ants in Germany. The parasite alters ant gene expression, making their fat bodies queen-like for longevity, while dampening brain activity for a quieter, lazier existence, aiding its own life cycle.
Oksana Masters, born with severe birth differences linked to the Chernobyl disaster, overcame a childhood in Ukrainian orphanages to become America's most decorated Paralympian. Her journey highlights resilience, finding purpose through adaptive sports, and inspiring millions worldwide.
Exclusive research reveals over 16 million people in England and Wales live more than a 1km round trip from a 24/7 defibrillator, significantly increasing cardiac arrest mortality risk. The British Heart Foundation launches a campaign to address these 'defibrillator deserts'.
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, re-elected for a second term, reflects on his political journey, lessons learned from opposition, and his surprising similarities with former PM John Howard, amidst intense scrutiny and a challenging policy landscape.
A study published in Science Advances details how wild snapdragons in the Pyrenees precisely calibrate their petal colors using seven genes to attract bees. This intricate genetic dance, barely perceptible to humans, is vital for the flowers' survival and demonstrates natural selection's role in shaping molecular gradients.
Scientists at Washington State University discovered fruit flies completely rebuild their internal biological clocks to switch into a separate seasonal mode. This genetic 'winter lock' keeps insects in a low-activity state, offering insights for agricultural pest control and understanding seasonal human health conditions.
Chinese researchers published a paper in Science Advances detailing the evolutionary assembly of the flight-adapted bird body plan, focusing on the pygostyle. They highlighted the difficulty in studying this transformation due to the rarity of early-diverging birds and birdlike dinosaurs.
Virginia Tech research reveals nanoplastics, tiny plastic fragments, can strengthen bacterial biofilms and activate viruses in drinking water systems. This makes harmful microbes more resistant to disinfection, posing a challenge for water treatment and public health by fostering "superbugs" and increasing maintenance complexity.
Hong Kong's 6-strong triathlon squad, preparing for the Asian Games in Japan, is advised to perform aggressively from the start in the Edmonton World Triathlon Cup, crucial for maintaining the sport's Tier A status in Hong Kong.
In Thailand, a compassionate network of individuals and organizations provides emergency care for injured street animals, rooted in Buddhist principles of loving-kindness. Dr. Bow exemplifies this dedication, performing complex surgeries, while volunteers and groups like the Soi Dog Foundation offer daily support and large-scale sterilization programs.
Kelela's new album 'New Avatar' blends R&B with shoegaze and rock, marking a significant artistic reinvention. The artist discusses her evolving sound, influences from indie rock and progressive metal, and her commitment to a Black queer feminist vision.
Sky's acquisition of ITV, a £200m deal ending 70 years of independence, signals a crisis for British TV. Deep-pocketed US streamers dominate, forcing consolidation and raising fears of job losses and the future of iconic shows.
A new study reveals the British swallowtail butterfly (Papilio machaon britannicus) is genetically distinct with 20% less diversity than European relatives. Despite low diversity and high inbreeding, harmful mutations are not accumulating, but long-term survival faces challenges.
A new study reveals the British swallowtail butterfly (Papilio machaon britannicus) is genetically distinct with 20% less diversity than European relatives. Despite low diversity and high inbreeding, harmful mutations are not accumulating significantly, but long-term survival faces challenges.
The Andean leaf-eared mouse (Phyllotis vaccarum) lives at altitudes above 6,700 meters, making it the highest-dwelling mammal. Researchers studied its physiology and genomics, finding adaptations for cold, low oxygen, and processing toxins from plants, which could inform human medicine for conditions like heart problems and cancer.
