- Having babies back-to-back may make the body age fasterAfter birth, a new biological clock may begin. Continue reading Having babies back-to-back may make the body age faster on Tech Explorist.
- Birds fear women more than men, and scientists don’t know whyWalk through a city park, and you’ll likely notice a familiar scene: pigeons pecking at the ground, sparrows hopping between benches, blackbirds searching for food among the trees. Urban birds are so accustomed to people that many seem almost fearless. But a surprising new study suggests these birds
- Menopause may change the brain in ways puberty and pregnancy don’tThe findings challenge the assumption that all major reproductive hormonal transitions affect brain structure in similar ways. Continue reading Menopause may change the brain in ways puberty and pregnancy don’t on Tech Explorist.

- When neutron stars collide, they may create a magnetar in just millisecondsMagnetic fields can influence how neutron-star merger remnants evolve. Continue reading When neutron stars collide, they may create a magnetar in just milliseconds on Tech Explorist.
- Scientists trapped a single antimatter particle for monthsThe scientists captured a single positron and confined it using carefully controlled electric and magnetic fields. Continue reading Scientists trapped a single antimatter particle for months on Tech Explorist.
- The end of surgical stitches? MIT spinout bets on a sticky new ideaSanaHeal has developed a biologically compatible adhesive that sticks to wet tissues to simplify a variety of surgeries. Continue reading The end of surgical stitches? MIT spinout bets on a sticky new idea on Tech Explorist.
- Scientists discover hidden rules that may govern spacetimeGravitational fields can behave remarkably like magnetic fields in plasmas. Continue reading Scientists discover hidden rules that may govern spacetime on Tech Explorist.
- Is nature hiding a universal speed limit? New physics offers cluesPhysicists say even thermal equilibrium can’t happen instantly. Continue reading Is nature hiding a universal speed limit? New physics offers clues on Tech Explorist.
- Tiny planet-forming disks reveal a big surprise about how planets are bornHidden gaps in tiny disks could point to planets still forming. Continue reading Tiny planet-forming disks reveal a big surprise about how planets are born on Tech Explorist.
- What evolved first: The brain or the gut? Scientists explore a big Evolutionary MysteryWhat if one of biology’s most cherished assumptions has the story backward? For generations, we’ve been taught to think of the brain as the body’s supreme commander. It sits at the top, makes the decisions, processes information, and directs the activity of virtually every organ beneath it. The gut,
