Gel turned human brain support cells into working neurons and improved memory in Alzheimer's mice
Live Science
Scientists invent a gel that creates neurons from other cells, which could help treat Alzheimer's
Scientists found a way to convert brain cells called astrocytes into neurons. In theory, this could replenish neurons lost in neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer's disease.

Melting Arctic sea ice is triggering a cloud making process missing from climate models
ScienceDaily
Scientists discover a natural Arctic cloud factory missing from climate models
A newly discovered Arctic process can dramatically boost the number of particles that help form clouds. Near melting sea ice, sunlight reacts with chemicals released by the ocean, algae, and ice, causing cloud-seeding particles to multiply by as much as 50 times in a day. Because the active ice-edge region is growing as sea ice retreats, the effect could become increasingly important. Scientists n

Largest known scorpion was a meter long and lived before forests existed
ScienceDaily
A coffee-table-size scorpion roamed Earth before forests existed
A meter-long scorpion with massive pincers stalked ancient Britain 415 million years ago, long before forests and the better-known age of giant insects. Its surprising size and possible semi-aquatic lifestyle could reshape ideas about how early arthropods became giants.

Scientists find Ozempic may slow aging itself
Semaglutide helped older healthy mice live longer while improving memory, muscle function, blood sugar control, and several biological signs of aging. Its effects went beyond those seen with calorie restriction, raising the possibility that GLP-1 drugs could tap into a separate biological pathway linked to longevity.

Hidden "immune organ" in the skull may help fight brain cancer
Scientists discovered a hidden "immune organ" inside the skull that acts as a rapid first responder against brain cancer in mice. Strengthening this local immune defense improved tumor rejection and survival, raising the possibility of new treatments that target the skull directly.

A broken rib from the world's largest T. rex hid a 66-million-year-old secret
A broken rib from Scotty, the largest known T. rex skeleton, contains an extraordinary fossilized network of blood vessels formed while the dinosaur was healing. Scientists used neutron and X-ray imaging to look inside the 66-million-year-old bone without damaging it, revealing details rarely preserved in fossils.

Scientists observe Einstein's gravity in the quantum world for the first time
Physicists have directly observed a long-predicted quantum effect of gravity, putting one of Einstein's foundational ideas to a striking new test. Using ultracold atoms, researchers split an atom's quantum wave so that one part was held in place while the other fell freely under gravity, then reunited the two to measure the tiny difference that emerged.

Distant time crystals can somehow fall into the same rhythm
Researchers have shown that multiple time crystals inside a semiconductor can synchronize their oscillations, much like pendulum clocks gradually falling into the same rhythm. The coupling is carried by spin-polarized electrons, allowing time crystals separated by up to 40 micrometers to lock to a common frequency. The discovery reveals surprisingly long-range connections between these exotic spin
