Mathematicians at OpenAI showed that the Navier-Stokes equations, which describe how fluids flow, can sometimes “blow up.” But the massive result is not without controversy.

Large-language models (LLMs) are rapidly becoming part of human culture, reshaping how information is produced, transmitted, and used. Here we propose that their diffusion can be understood through a ...

The theoretical side of the field doesn’t require computing machines. But many questions would never have been posed without them.

El pasado 12 de agosto de 2026, a eso de las 20:30 hora local, tuvo lugar un eclipse total de Sol que se pudo ver desde gran parte de España […]

Education is at a crossroads, argues the author and academic. Should we embrace new technology in the name of efficiency, or is it time to fight back?

Depending on their distance from the cell body, dendrites play different roles in learning and memory.

Increasing desertification now means large parts of Earth are becoming inhospitable. Can gene-edited bacteria save our planet from drying out?

Animals have moved from water to land many times, but whether they used the same genetic routes has remained unclear. This study shows that independent land transitions relied mostly on ancient, conse...

A path-inference framework quantifies data resolution limits that render distinct stochastic models empirically indistinguishable and offers guidelines for designing experimental measurements that max...

Transmissible tumors have been reported in a handful of animal species, but never before among fish. Is it possible in humans?

When Hannah Cairo was a 17-year-old high school student, she did something mathematicians had been unable to do for four decades: she overturned the Mizohata-Takeuchi conjecture, a famous prediction…

The idea of ‘biological agency’ — that life devises its own goals and behaves accordingly — complicates our understanding of what it means to be alive. But does it serve a scientific purpose?

Faced with observations of early black holes and galaxies that weren’t expected to exist, scientists have come up with a wealth of new theories to explain them. Now they just need to figure out which ...

Scientists built a synthetic cell that combines more lifelike properties than ever before — proof of concept that it’s possible to bring nonliving materials to life, or something close to it, in the l...

Taken to its logical conclusion, this line of thinking is absurd—and damning.
