The United Kingdom’s looming exit from the European Union has spurred concerns about the future of research and innovation in Europe. Members of the scientific community in the UK and

Previously overlooked in both anatomy and medicine, scientists have just discovered a new feature of the human body that may soon be classified as an entirely new organ: “the interstitium”.
Through the references under the world’s “most elite publications” in science, scholars have shown which countries provide the most background knowledge for the most cited papers in the scientific literature.
In an effort to foster collaboration among academic networks of the EU, four universities in Europe are leading the charge in forming a “4EU” alliance for the betterment of research
It has long been observed in the field of ageing research that nonhuman animals on a calorie-restricted diet boast slower metabolisms and live longer than their counterparts who regularly consume
Most MEG machines are limited by their size, weight, and sensitivity to movement. With the development of a wearable brain scanner, neuroscientists might soon be able to study the brain
New research demonstrates that differences in pupil size can predict success during free recall tests of memory in humans, suggesting that pupil responses might be a valid marker of underlying
In perhaps the biggest news in neuroscience this year, a recent study has found that neurogenesis, a process by which new neurons are generated in the brain, grinds to a
By modelling the behaviour of a simple yeast cell, researchers have arrived at a unique understanding of a machine-learning algorithm that can simulate basic cell biology, opening the door to
By harnessing the power of a perceptual movement illusion, researchers report that amputees with prosthetic hands can improve their motor performance and regain a sense of control through neural-machine interface.
