Is Our Universe Inside a Black Hole?

Neil deGrasse Tyson breaks down intriguing new evidence along with other curious parallels that could point to the universe being inside a black hole. Is the edge of our universe an event horizon on a black hole in some other universe?

‘Cyborg Tadpoles’ With Super Soft Neural Implants Shine Light on Early Brain Development

Early brain development is a biological black box. While scientists have devised multiple ways to record electrical signals in adult brains, these techniques don’t work for embryos.

A team at Harvard has now managed to peek into the box—at least when it comes to amphibians and rodents. They developed an electrical array using a flexible, tofu-like material that seamlessly embeds into the early developing brain. As the brain grows, the implant stretches and shifts, continuously recording individual neurons without harming the embryo.

“There is just no ability currently to measure neural activity during early neural development. Our technology will really enable an uncharted area,” said study author Jia Liu in a press release.

Cells assembled into Anthrobots become biologically younger than the original cells they were made from

Modern humans have existed for more than 200,000 years, and each new generation has begun with a single cell—dividing, changing shape and function, organizing into tissues, organs, and limbs. With slight variations, the process has repeated billions of times with remarkable fidelity to the same body plan.

Researchers at Tufts have been on a quest to understand the code guiding individual cells to create the architecture of a human being, and to create a foundation for . As they learn more about that code, they are also looking at how to build living structures from human cells that have totally new forms and capabilities—without genetic manipulation.

To decipher that code, they took a cell from the human body and allowed it to grow in a novel environment to observe how the rules of self-organization play out.

Gravity is no longer fundamental: a new quantum discovery reveals that it emerges from hidden spacetime symmetry principles

In a groundbreaking discovery, physicists from Aalto University have unveiled a new framework that unites gravity with the forces described by the Standard Model of particle physics, potentially bringing us closer to the long-awaited “Theory of Everything.” This discovery doesn’t just reframe gravity—it offers a fresh perspective on how the fundamental forces of nature might work together¹

FDA-Approved Sleeping Pill Slows Alzheimer’s Tangles in Pre-Clinical Trial

A drug used to treat insomnia has protected mice against the buildup of the tau protein found to clump abnormally in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s. This could lead to new ways to help slow the progress of these diseases.

An increasing number of people are facing cognitive decline personally or in their loved ones. There are almost 10 million new cases of dementia globally each year, and despite decades of research, there are still few treatment options that provide clear benefits.

So due to the links between Alzheimer’s and poor sleep, Washington University neurologist Samira Parhizkar and colleagues investigated a central nervous system depressant, lemborexant, that was approved for use as a sleep aid by the FDA in December 2019.

Nvidia to drop Humanoid robots that will produce Nvidia GB300 chips in Q1 of 2026.

This would be the first time that an Nvidia product will be made with the assistance of humanoid robots and would be Foxconn’s first AI server factory to use them on a production line.

Foxconn is developing its own humanoid robots with Nvidia and has also trialed humanoids made by China’s UBTech
