An astonishing finding from Israeli scientists at Reichman University and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem shows that a person’s name really affects their appearance. The scientists call this the “face-name…
Researchers used artificial intelligence to digitally reconstruct the appearance of a man who died in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Archaeologists previously found his remains and those…
Marine cloud brightening could locally reduce warming and help protect vulnerable ecosystems from extreme heat. Led by Professor Hugh Coe at the University of Manchester, the team is running experiments…
Who would have guessed—young people think artificial intelligence gives better answers to mental-health questions than psychiatrists. At least, that’s what participants in a study carried out by researchers from the…
Huawei’s headlights can now project movies. If the driver doesn’t like the film, the driver can switch to sports or other videos instead. Huawei developed the XPixel lighting system with…
As British neurobiologist and author Dean Burnett argues, there’s no logical reason to root for the dark side. But we do it anyway. Burnett says a favorite movie villain can…

It might sound odd, but scientists who study dogs haven’t paid enough attention to how important play is for dogs and their owners. In a new study, a team of…
The ancient ancestors of modern octopuses that lived in Earth’s oceans 100 to 72 million years ago resembled krakens — the giant cephalopods from Norse myth said to attack ships.…
At the rock shelter Kakapel in western Kenya, researchers reconstructed a nearly 9,000‑year‑old visual archive—and, for the first time, linked individual layers of paintings to specific human communities. A study…
