The Booker-shortlisted novelist explains how a single day evolved into a seven-book epic, and what it teaches us about ageing, relationships and our sense of time in the real world. Writer Solvej ...

MIT researchers discovered that the genome’s 3D structure doesn’t vanish during cell division as previously thought. Instead, tiny loops called microcompartments remain (and even strengthen) while ...

MIT experiments have revealed the existence of “microcompartments,” shown in yellow, within the 3D structure of the genome. These compartments are formed by tiny loops that may play a role in gene ...

There is a reason you might be feeling tired—and it’s not necessarily because you are not getting a solid night’s sleep. In a Threads post that has been liked over 21,200 times and reposted more than ...

New work shows that physical folding of the genome to control genes located far away may have been a critical turning point for life on Earth. For evolutionary biologists, what most distinguishes the ...

Researchers used the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope in Hawaii to take the clearest pictures ever of a powerful solar flare that occurred on Aug. 8, 2024. Credit: NSF / NSO / AURA Astronomers have ...

Record-breaking images from the world's largest solar telescope, the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope in Hawaii, reveal a solar flare in unprecedented detail. When you purchase through links on our ...

Astronomers using the Inouye Solar Telescope have captured the sharpest-ever images of a solar flare, revealing coronal loops as thin as 21 km wide. These threadlike plasma structures, imaged during ...

The highest-resolution images of a solar flare captured at the H-alpha wavelength (656.28 nm) ever captured may reshape how we understand the sun's magnetic architecture—and improve space weather ...
