Scientists have uncovered the genes that may lead to a longer, healthier life. They've looked at the genomes of three organisms and have found the genes associated with the aging process that all three have in common.
The symptoms of a concussion may pass, but a new study shows that even following clinical recovery, some athletes experience reduced blood flow to the brain.
Researchers are getting a closer look at the planet Saturn with the Cassini spacecraft. Now, they've found the first direct evidence for explosive releases of energy in Saturn's magnetic bubble.
A new study examines survival rates among breast cancer patients who also have depression.
Scientists are getting a closer look at the jet streams and anticyclones of Jupiter and Saturn. They've created 3D simulations of deep jet streams and storms on the two planets.
About 390 million years ago, the first vertebrate animals moved from water to land. Now, scientists are learning a bit more about how this evolution occurred.
Falling oxygen levels caused by global warming could be a greater threat to the survival of life on Earth than flooding as climate change continues.
It turns out that the lunar space environment is far more active than previously thought. Scientists have found that the solar wind may have effects on lunar water levels and other features on the nearby world.
Bonobos may have entered the Stone Age. For the first time ever, scientists have seen bonobos making sophisticated use of pre-agricultural tools in a way that's similar to what archaic pre-humans once did.
It turns out that Earth's very first ecosystems were far more complex than previously thought. Computer simulations have revealed the some of the first large, complex organisms on Earth formed complex ecosystems.
What's the difference between a male and female brain? There isn't one, according to scientists. Researchers have scanned both male and female brains and have found that there is, effectively, no difference between the two.
Mothers who separate from an abusive partner are up to four times more likely to report threats that involve taking or harming their children than those who stay in an abusive relationship, according to a recent study.
