This artist's impression shows a possible seed for the formation of a supermassive black hole. Two of these possible seeds were discovered by an Italian team, using three space telescopes: the NASA Chandra X-ray Observatory, the NASA/ESA Hubble Space...
UCLA scientists have made a major advance in understanding the biology of schizophrenia. Using a recently developed technology for analyzing DNA, the scientists found dozens of genes and two major biological pathways that are likely involved in the development...
The around 6000-year-old rock engravings can hardly be seen today. They were pecked into the rock with a hard point.

Arrows point to tiny sacks inside neurons called synaptic vesicles, which store neurotransmitters like dopamine before they're released from one cell to another. The gene TMEM230, shown in this study to cause Parkinson's disease, encodes a protein that extends...
The judicial decisions of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) have been predicted to 79% accuracy using an artificial intelligence (AI) method developed by researchers at UCL, the University of Sheffield and the University of Pennsylvania.
The method is...
