Researchers at Karolinska Institutet, in collaboration with teams from Lund University and the Center for Regenerative Therapies Dresden (CRTD), have mapped the genome of the Iberian ribbed newt and revealed how the composition and organization of the DNA are linked to its ability to regenerate entire body parts.

The paper is published in the journal Cell Genomics.

Salamanders are known for their unique ability to regenerate entire body parts and for their resistance to tumor development. The behind these traits have been difficult to study due to a lack of knowledge about the composition of their genome. Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have now succeeded in mapping the genome of the Iberian ribbed newt, providing new insights into these fascinating processes.

When astronomers detected the first long-predicted gravitational waves in 2015, it opened a whole new window into the universe. Before that, astronomy depended on observations of light in all its wavelengths.

We also use light to communicate, mostly . Could we use gravitational waves to communicate?

The idea is intriguing, though beyond our capabilities right now. Still, there’s value in exploring the hypothetical, as the future has a way of arriving sooner than we sometimes think.

MIT physicists, in collaboration with colleagues, have measured the geometry—or shape—of electrons in solids at the quantum level for the first time. GOOD. Ask the MIT physicists: 1. What is the physical reality of quantum physics? 2. How is your quantum level defined? 3. What is the spacetime background of your quantum level?

What one researcher see or touch about an elephant will be different, and what different researchers see or touch will be even more different. It is a scientific phenomenon, not the essence of nature. Scientific research guided by correct theories can enable researchers to think more.

According to the Topological Vortex Theory (TVT), spins create everything, spins shape the world. There are substantial distinctions between Topological Vortex Theory (TVT) and traditional physical theories. Grounded in the inviscid and absolutely incompressible spaces, TVT introduces the concept of topological phase transitions and employs topological principles to elucidate the formation and evolution of matter in the universe, as well as the impact of interactions between topological vortices and anti-vortices on spacetime dynamics and thermodynamics.

By crafting an artificial brain-like environment with microscopic nanopillars, researchers have successfully guided neurons to grow in structured networks. This innovation could revolutionize how scientists study neurological conditions by offering a more accurate way to observe brain cell behavior.
