It uses light to record and transmit brain signals and worked for a year with minimal scarring in mice. The post This Wireless Brain Implant Is Smaller Than a Grain of Salt appeared first on SingularityHub.

Gene editors usually take years to test and perfect. KJ Muldoons treatment took only six months. Now his doctors want to go even faster. The post Scientists Race to Deliver Custom Gene Therapies for Incurable Diseases in...

Microplastics-tiny particles now found in food, water, air, and even human tissues-may directly accelerate artery-clogging disease, and new research shows the danger may be far greater for males. In mice, environmentally...

Researchers have created one of the most detailed virtual mouse cortex simulations ever achieved by combining massive biological datasets with the extraordinary power of Japans Fugaku supercomputer. The digital brain beh...

Researchers have discovered chemical traces of life in rocks older than 3.3 billion years, offering a rare look at Earths earliest biology. By combining advanced chemical methods with artificial intelligence, scientists ...

New research shows that spontaneous eye blinks naturally sync to the beat of music, revealing a hidden form of auditory-motor synchronization that occurs even without conscious movement. In more than 100 participants lis...

New research reveals that the loss of a single ion channel, TRPM1, is enough to produce persistent rhythmic oscillations in the retina, a feature observed in both congenital stationary night blindness and retinitis pigme...

Archaeologists in Kyrgyzstan have discovered the remains of a drowned medieval city that was once a Silk Road hotspot.

New research shows that CTE may stem from DNA damage and inflammation set in motion by blows to the head.

A massive international genetic study has uncovered rare, high-effect variants in three specific genes-MAP1A, ANO8 and ANK2-that dramatically increase the likelihood of developing ADHD. These variants, though extremely u...

A comprehensive UN report has found that cities and towns are home to 81 per cent of the worlds population, much more than previously thought

Save $100 on the Apple AirPods Pro 2 wireless earbuds at Walmart - but hurry, this early Black Friday deal will not last long.

An amateur astronomer has accidentally uncovered a series of puzzling radio signals coming from SpaceX's government-operated "Starshield" network. The signals overlap with protected frequencies and could disr...

A slender glass fiber no thicker than a human hair placed across a particle beam could improve accelerator monitoring. A team is testing the use of hollow-core optical fibers to measure the profile and position of the be...

Ancient rock art was meant to be heard as well as seen and now acoustic archaeologists are bringing the sounds of prehistoric rituals to life

Developed at Caltech, a new robot is a humanoid that can launch an M4 drone, switching between different modes of motion, with wheels that can become rotors.

An incredible new image shows the multi-tailed alien comet 3I/ATLAS shooting past a distant galaxy in the night sky. The stunning scene is a reminder of the object's perfectly natural interstellar origins, photograph...

Physicists from Swansea University have played the leading role in a scientific breakthrough at CERN, developing an innovative technique that increases the antihydrogen trapping rate by a factor of ten.

When current flows through a wire, it doesn't always have a perfect path. Tiny defects within the wire mean current must travel a more circuitous route, a problem for engineers and manufacturers seeking reliable equi...

Everyday life on the internet is insecure. Hackers can break into bank accounts or steal digital identities. Driven by AI, attacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated. Quantum cryptography promises more effective pro...

AlphaEvolve, an AI system created by Google DeepMind, is helping mathematicians do research at a scale that was previously impossible - even if it does occasionally "cheat" to find a solution

Optical quantum computers are gaining attention as a next-generation computing technology with high speed and scalability. However, accurately characterizing complex optical processes, where multiple optical modes intera...
