Banning lead in gasoline worked. Analysis of 100 years of hair samples shows lead levels were ~100× higher before environmental regulations. Removing lead from fuel and paint dramatically reduced human exposure, protecting brain development and public health.
Night owl or early bird: Study finds sleep categories aren’t that simple. Scientists identify 5 biological sleep-wake profiles (2 early birds, 3 night owl groups) linked to different health and behaviour patterns, helping explain why sleep schedules affect people differently.
A new report found that ultra-processed foods should be treated more like cigarettes than food. UPFs and cigarettes are engineered to encourage addiction and consumption, researchers from three US universities said, pointing to the parallels in widespread health harms that link both.
Cannabis-derived cannabinoids may reduce neuroinflammation and oxidative stress. By acting on the endocannabinoid system (ECS), they may preserve blood–brain barrier integrity and limit neural damage in Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis and Huntington’s disease according to a review.
Researchers have developed a blood test that may detect early pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest forms of cancer. The new test could improve survival rates from pancreatic cancer, which tends to be diagnosed at late stages when therapy is less likely to be effective
Brain scans reveal neural connectivity deficits in Long COVID and ME/CFS. Study finds the brains of people with Long COVID and Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome struggle to communicate effectively during mentally tiring tasks.
Exposure to the opioid epidemic increased economic hardship and increased the Republican vote share by 4.5 percentage points per standard deviation.
A new study suggests that the total amount of warmth shared between partners matters more than whether they express it equally. Researchers found that maximizing affection yields higher relationship quality than simply matching a partner’s lower output.
Stroke survivors can counterintuitively improve recovery by strengthening their stronger arm, according to a new randomized trial of which arm to focus on
Young adults report lower life satisfaction, a weaker sense of meaning in life and lower financial security than older age groups in Sweden. They also experience 2x the level of loneliness, 3x as many depressive symptoms and 7x the level of anxiety compared with the oldest respondents.
New research connects heart attacks to brain, nervous and immune systems: « Uncovering ‘three node’ links opens a path to new treatments for world’s leading cause of death. »
Analysis of German linked employer–employee data suggests that workers in high-wage organizations and complex jobs are less likely to experience invasive digital monitoring for performance evaluation or perceive monitoring as constant surveillance
Chinese researchers develop photonic chip capable of running generative AI models with lower energy use
Early Universe's supermassive black holes grew in cocoons like butterflies
Some brands of bottled water contain significantly higher levels of microplastics than tap water. Results showed that bottled water contained 3 times as many nanoplastic particles as the treated drinking water.

The first treatment in development shown to reduce cough and improve patient-reported outcomes in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and chronic cough is presented, with cough dynamics analyzed using objective cough monitoring as an endpoint.
An Alabama woman has reportedly thrived for over 61 days after receiving a pig kidney transplant, setting a new record for a living recipient of a xenotransplant. This marks a significant advancement in the field of organ transplantation.
Measuring activation during behavioral activation therapy: a proof-of-concept study using smartphone sensors and LLM-derived ratings in adolescents with anhedonia
Asymmetric thermal conductivity mediated by nonreciprocal polaritons
Scientists developed a first-principles data-driven method to assess the stability of technetium carbide (Tc–C) systems, crucial for nuclear waste management and next-gen reactors. This hybrid approach combines density functional theory calculations and machine learning to map phase stability.
