Some Pancreatic Cells Are Just One Genetic Tweak Away From Treating Diabetes (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A human pancreas typically contains about a billion beta cells, the primary producers of insulin. Among people with diabetes, these cells are either missing or dysfunctional, and thus scientists have been looking for ways to replenish their numbers as a possible long-term treatment or even cure for the condition. A team of researchers recently took a step closer to that reality, genetically altering another type of pancreatic cell to produce and release insulin in response to high blood sugar. T
A Gravitational Battle Within the Earth Is Changing the Length of Days (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Earth's days are not exactly the same length. Scientists have been recording small variations in for decades. These changes are minuscule—sometimes just a few milliseconds—and mostly imperceptible, but scientists are keen to understand them as they point to a much more monumental change: Our planet’s rotation speed is shifting. Scientists have already pinpointed a handful of compounding causes. Fluctuations in the atmosphere and oceans can slightly speed up or slow down the Earth’s rotation; maj
Scientists Detect Radio Signals from an Exoplanet for the First Time in History (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Approximately 63 light-years from Earth lies a planetary system so young that its less than 1 percent as old as our solar system. It is called Beta Pictoris, and—as far as astronomers have confirmed—it consists of a star more massive than the sun, three giant planets, and a huge disk of dust and debris. The middle planet in the system, Beta Pictoris b, is a gas giant several times more massive than Jupiter. Being a gas giant, it likely does not have a solid surface on which to “land,” and at jus
He Won the Nobel Prize for Protein Design. Now He Uses AI to Create Molecules Not Found in Nature (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The natural world as we know it represents only a fraction of what might exist. Based on this idea, AI BioDesign was born: a scientific project that combines artificial intelligence and large-scale laboratory experiments to design and test new molecules and biological functions that are not found in nature but are physically and chemically possible. In doing so, the researchers are aiming to create databases, models, and tools that could serve as “seeds” for developing the medicines and technolo
Cockroach Milk, How to Blow Your Nose, and Mosquito Printers: The Ig Nobels of 2026 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Achievements that first make people laugh and then make them think. That’s the motto of the Ig Nobel Prizes, an annual competition that—parodying the Nobel Prizes—recognizes some of the world’s most unusual scientific studies. The organization Improbable Research has been hosting the event since 1991 with the aim of showing that science also has a humorous side in its quest to meaningfully answer questions about the world. This year the ceremony was held in Zurich, Switzerland, and recognized 10
