Exercise’s positive effect on depression is well-known, but not how it produces its anti-depressant effects. After reviewing a broad range of studies into how depression and physical activity affect motivation, researchers have now come up with a hypot… Continue reading A familiar culprit thought to be why depression affects motivation
Researchers have developed technology that creates nanoscale sacs containing a compartment within a compartment, like a Russian matryoshka doll. The novel tech is capable of delivering two drugs simultaneously or at different times.Continue ReadingCate… Continue reading Nanoscale ‘Russian doll’ tech delivers two drugs at different times
The recognition of same-sex marriage across the European Union has had a negative impact on the US economy, causing the number of highly skilled foreign workers seeking visas to drop by about 21%, according to a new study.Continue ReadingCategory: Life… Continue reading Same-sex marriage recognition means highly skilled workers avoided US
Speaking a language with different words for different color shades allows the brain to perceive those shades quicker than using a language with only one word for that color, according to new research. The findings highlight the important interaction b… Continue reading Language affects how fast our brains perceive different shades of color
Researchers have combined the bacteria-killing actions of two classes of antibiotics into one, demonstrating that their new dual-action antibiotic could make bacterial resistance (almost) an impossibility.Continue ReadingCategory: Health & Wellbein… Continue reading New antibiotic nearly eliminates the chance of superbugs evolving
One dose of a new treatment, delivered by nasal spray, clears away build-ups of the toxic tau protein associated with Alzheimer’s disease from inside brain cells, improving memory, according to new research. It paves the way for new treatments for the debilitating disease.

The discovery of a quartet of fossilized snakes, a never-before-seen species from the boa family that lived 38 million years ago, has provided paleontologists with a rare insight into reptilian social behavior and provides clues about the evolution of … Continue reading New snake species reveals rare reptilian social behavior
Researchers have figured out how a commonly used general anesthetic drug induces unconsciousness by causing brain activity to become increasingly unstable. The findings could lead to better anesthetic control in the operating room and treatments for co… Continue reading Anesthetic causes unconsciousness by creating brain chaos
Researchers have developed a remote, non-invasive method of selectively controlling neurons in the brain using magnetic fields. The technique opens the door to a greater understanding of brain function and, potentially, new treatments for disorders.Con… Continue reading Mind control magnets modify appetite and social behavior
