- How the world's highest-dwelling mammal survives above 6,700 metresAndean leaf-eared mice endure minus 60 degrees and half the oxygen of sea level by turning their whole metabolism into a furnace, a study in Science finds.
- Semaglutide slowed markers of biological ageing in a randomised trial โ with caveatsThe first placebo-controlled human evidence that a GLP-1 drug shifts epigenetic ageing clocks comes from an exploratory analysis of 84 people, and its authors are the first to say so.
- AI makes the quiet slipping of the San Andreas Fault visibleA Potsdam team found dozens of previously unnoticed slow-slip events in eight years of archived measurements โ and a systematic link to later earthquake signals.
- Astronomers find erythrulose โ the first sugar in the interstellar mediumThe discovery near the centre of the Milky Way supports the idea that Earth received key building blocks of life from space โ and challenges a common assumption in astrochemistry.
- Bloomberg Philanthropies Commits $260 Million to Turn Ocean Pledges Into EnforcementThe money targets the gap between the roughly 10% of the ocean nations have promised to protect and the far smaller share that is actually managed, funded and policed.
- Brussels Clears 659 Million Euros in German Chip SubsidiesFour specialist plants in North Rhine-Westphalia, Schleswig-Holstein, Hesse and Bavaria may be subsidised โ one piece of the EU's attempt to double its share of world production by 2030.
- Aalto Physicists Build the First Heat Engine Inside a Superconducting Quantum CircuitA transmon qubit runs through an Otto cycle and does more work than is put into it โ a possible way out of the wiring problem facing large quantum computers.
- Remeasured: Neighbouring Planet GJ 3378b Turns Out to Be a Potentially Habitable Super-EarthCorrected values for mass and orbital period pull the exoplanet, 25 light-years away, out of the gas-dwarf category and into the habitable zone โ making it a target for future telescopes.
- How Devoted Dads Evolved: Citizen Scientists Rewrite the Story of Parental CareBy pairing three decades of fieldwork with iNaturalist photos, researchers doubled the known cases of parental care in harvestmen โ and traced how fatherhood arose again and again.
- After Decades of Loss, Southeast Asia's Mangroves Are Growing BackFour decades of satellite data reveal a hopeful reversal: since 2010 the region has swung from the epicenter of mangrove loss to a driver of global recovery.
- Shared memories ease the grief of dementia caregiversA digital platform helps soften the anticipatory grief of dementia โ and strengthens the bond between patients and those who care for them.
- Riddle of Earth's greatest mass extinction solved: heat and lost oxygen decided who livedA Stanford-led study explains why the "Great Dying" 252 million years ago wiped out some sea creatures and spared others.
- A Roman guardian spirit, buried for 1,600 years, resurfaces at Hadrian's WallArchaeologists at Vindolanda uncovered a rare carved 'Genius' beneath a barracks floor, its fine details preserved intact.
- NASA telescope pins down a 'lighthouse' pulsar's magnetic field for the first timeIXPE's X-ray vision confirmed how high-energy particles escape one of the cosmos's most extreme objects โ and found its magnetism calmer than expected.
- AI uncovers the silent movements of the San Andreas FaultA German-American team filtered dozens of previously hidden, shake-free ground movements out of years of measurements.
- Turkish cave: Neanderthals and Homo sapiens shared one culture for over 20,000 yearsFinds from รรงaฤฤฑzlฤฑ II Cave reveal a cultural continuity that spanned the species divide โ down to symbolically collected seashells.
- A century of children growing taller: how the world pushed back stuntingA new dataset reconstructing more than a hundred years of children's heights shows that severe malnutrition is not inevitable โ and Japan's history proves it can be beaten.
- On a Sicilian volcano, drones map the gases that foreshadow an eruptionGerman research teams are testing laser- and sensor-equipped drones on Vulcano, gathering readings that were once too dangerous to collect on foot.
- DNA on the cave wall: Stone Age art becomes a genetic archiveFor the first time, researchers have recovered ancient human DNA directly from painted and unpainted cave walls in Spain and Portugal โ a new window into prehistory.
- HPV vaccine: no young woman in England is dying of cervical cancer any moreAn analysis of all national mortality data shows the school vaccination programme has all but defeated cervical cancer in 20- to 24-year-olds โ while Germany still vaccinates too few.
- A 72,000-study audit finds preprints hold up surprisingly wellWhen biomedical papers posted online before peer review reach a journal, their central conclusions rarely change โ and they are retracted less often, a large new analysis reports.
- A Welsh 'Celtic rainforest' is whole again after nearly 60 yearsRSPB Cymru has bought the 96-hectare Gallt-y-bere, the missing link between two halves of a nature reserve, opening a corridor for rare woodland wildlife.
- The quiet atomic trick that keeps gold from ever tarnishingPhysicists at Tulane University find that gold's surface atoms rearrange into a shape that all but blocks oxygen โ explaining a shine that lasts for centuries.
- Public backing for climate action is stronger than politicians thinkA study by two German universities finds that elected officials systematically underestimate how many people support effective climate policy โ especially where it carries a cost.
