Researchers from the Laboratory of Oncolytic-Virus-Immuno-Therapeutics (LOVIT) at the LIH Department of Oncology (DONC) are working on the development of novel anticancer strategies based on oncolytic ...

Huge radio telescope will be complete by 2030 featuring hundreds of radio dishes and thousands of radio antennas in southern Africa and Australia

Humans have eaten eggs for millions of years. Today, eggs are used in all sorts of dishes and drinks, from meringues to eggnog. Perhaps more commonly, they are used to make breakfast.

It's easy to get distracted - whether you're daydreaming about a special someone while you should be working, or completely going blank and just taking a brain break.

Six weeks after assembly began, SpaceX has completed Starship’s first true Super Heavy booster prototype, rolled it out of its ‘high bay’ nest, and installed the building-sized rocket at the launch pad. Standing some 65 meters (~215 ft) tall, Super Heavy…

How does the human brain keep track of the order of events in a sequence?

University of Maryland’s Professor William McDonough and Tohoku University’s Dr. Takashi Yoshizaki have developed a model showing that the density, mass and iron content of a rocky planet’s core are influenced by its distance from the magnetic field of the…

New research suggests that filaments of matter connecting one galaxy to another may be spinning

Two astronauts on Sunday made the first spacewalk outside China's new orbital station to set up cameras and other equipment using a 15-meter-long (50-foot-long) robotic arm.

Originally built to speed up calculations, a machine-learning system is now making shocking progress at the frontiers of experimental quantum physics

Researchers have demonstrated how to keep a network of nanowires in a state that's right on what's known as the edge of chaos – an achievement that could be used to produce artificial intelligence (AI) that acts much like the human brain does.

The Milky Way is 13 billion years old. Some of our galaxy's oldest stars were born near the beginning of the Universe itself. During all these eons of time, we know at least one technological civilization has been born – us!
