Researchers have predicted—and confirmed—a secondary pattern on the ocellated lizard’s scales that is too subtle for our eyes to see.
The more diverse species in your gut, the better it is for your health. Now an international team led by the Hudson Institute of Medical Research has found a way to determine which species are important and how they interact to create a healthy microbiome.
Understanding these relationships opens the door to a new world of medical opportunities for conditions from inflammatory bowel disease to infections, autoimmune diseases and cancers.
Associate Professor Samuel Forster and his team at Hudson Institute of Medical Research, working with collaborators from the Institute for Systems Biology in the U.S. and local collaborators at Monash University and Monash Health, have spent years studying the gut microbiome and working out which species perform which functions.
They say it could explain the evolution of life, minerals, stars and most everything else in the universe.
NK cells are a type of white blood cell and a component of the immune system. They recognise certain proteins, or antigens, on virus-infected or tumour cells and destroy them.

According to main study author Lauren Janczewski, MD, a clinical scholar with ACS Cancer Programs and a general surgery resident at Northwestern University McGaw Medical Center, Chicago, estimated survival rates for cancer patients currently primarily depend on disease stage and do not offer enough details to estimate an accurate survival time.
Researchers have revealed a radical new use of AI — to predict earthquakes.
A team from Tokyo Metropolitan University have used machine-learning techniques to analyze tiny changes in geomagnetic fields.
These allow the system, to predict natural disaster far earlier than current methods.

Artificial general intelligence is the big goal of OpenAI. What exactly that is, however, is still up for debate.
According to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, systems like GPT-4 or GPT-5 would have passed for AGI to “a lot of people” ten years ago. “Now people are like, well, you know, it’s like a nice little chatbot or whatever,” Altman said.
The phenomenon Altman describes has a name: It’s called the “AI effect,” and computer scientist Larry Tesler summed it up by saying, “AI is anything that has not been done yet.”
