New food poisoning toxin

New research by neuroscientists at the University of Chicago uses the mating songs of birds to show how intrinsic properties of cells are closely tied to the complex processes of learning. The study could add a new layer of complexity to our understanding of the brain-as well as a possible path toward an animal model for scientists to understand human stuttering.

A new study from UCLA professor of anthropology Brooke Scelza invites geneticists and sociologists to think more broadly about human fidelity and paternity. Scelza's study , published Advances, uses data from a long-term anthropological study in Namibia with Himba pastoralists.

Real-world experiment in Chicago suburbs achieves quantum entanglement across 52-mile fiber network. Scientists from Argonne National Laboratory and the University of Chicago entangled photons across a 52-mile network in the Chicago suburbs, an important step in developing a national quantum internet.
