Why Multiple Sclerosis Can Be Difficult to Diagnose, Even With Modern Scans
MS diagnosis depends on symptoms, imaging and specialist judgment. New protein tests may help, but no single definitive test is on the horizon.
DeepMind’s Protein Watermarks Can Be Detected Easily—and Removed Just as Easily
DeepMind’s SynthIDBio can identify watermarked AI-designed proteins with high accuracy, but experts say simple edits can erase the signals.
Artemis II Commander Recalls the Moment He Feared the Crew Wouldn’t Come Home
Reid Wiseman feared Artemis II had overshot its return point—until the Orion capsule’s distance counter began to fall.
Crows Make Fast Visual Decisions Using Brain Processes Seen in Primates
Two carrion crows judged moving dots in 235 milliseconds on average, with brain recordings pointing to decision processes shared with primates.
Brain Scans Show Fractions and Whole Numbers Share a Mental Number Line
A brain imaging study found that fractions and whole numbers map onto a shared neural scale, organized by value rather than by the digits they contain.
Dwarf Reed Snakes Cartwheel at Nearly Four Times Their Slithering Speed
Three dwarf reed snake species can roll at up to 12.1 feet per second, steering their bodies while keeping their heads stable.
How Plants Survived the Great Dying—and What Their Adaptations Mean for Climate Change
Ancient plant survival depended on flexible growth, seed banks and rapid evolution. Those same traits may help species face climate stress today.
