Being Human

UCLA’s Broad Center researchers have developed an antibody therapy to help the heart heal after a heart attack. This therapy, which blocks the ENPP1 protein, reduces scar tissue formation that can lead to heart failure. Early tests showed that treated animals had less scarring and a reduced risk of severe heart failure. With plans for human trial...

In a post titled 'From an Indian to an Indian', a non-residential Indian (NRI) from Krakow, Poland, expressed his disappointment with the alleged actions of other Indian co-passengers aboard a plane.

Growing tissues in labs on Earth can be a challenging task as gravity pulls cells into contact with the bottom of a plate or dish.

NASA has identified nine candidate landing regions for the Artemis III mission, which marks humanity’s return to the Moon after fifty years. The selected regions are near the lunar South Pole, rich in scientific opportunities. These areas will be assessed for geological features and resource potential, especially water. Future missions will also ...

Twins are a captivating subject of study, with two main types: identical and fraternal. Identical twins result from a single fertilised egg splitting, sharing identical DNA. Fraternal twins develop from separate eggs fertilised simultaneously. Their emotional connection often surpasses typical sibling relationships, leading to intriguing dynamics. ...

Recent research has shed light on how "selfish DNA," particularly LINE-1 transposons, plays a key role in early human development. Once viewed primarily as harmful, these elements have now been found to be essential for the normal formation and specialisation of cells during the embryo's early stages. Blocking their activity causes developmental di...

World Iodine Deficiency Day 2024: This article explores the impact of iodine deficiency on both the foetus and the mother, highlighting why its essential to maintain adequate iodine levels during pregnancy, and what can be done to prevent deficiency-related complications.

A new AI tool developed by Google DeepMind helps people with opposing views reach consensus by summarising viewpoints fairly. Tested on UK residents, the AI-generated summaries were preferred over those of human mediators, showcasing potential for improving democratic deliberation processes. The tool, named the Habermas Machine, could be crucial in...

The gut could be key to understanding longevity, according to a study that found a gut hormone in fruit flies could control lifespan, a result important to humans as both species have many similar genes and hormones.

Astronauts walking on the moon as part of NASA's first human mission to the lunar South Pole will be wearing Prada, as part of a new venture unveiled.

Shraddha Kapoor talks about her fears and being vulnerable in latest interview and how she looks at life positively because of it

October 2024 is instead being termed as "Croc-tober" as this iconic shoe brand has an adorable launch in store

Being intelligent, or putting effort into being more intelligent, may not matter much, as an enormous amount of machine intelligence would be available on tap, helping us automate work that consumes almost 60-70% of our time today

Optimus robot was seen dancing, serving drinks, chatting with guests and even posing for a selfie at the 'We, Robot' event held in California.
