On the Same Wavelength: Neural ’Fingerprints’ Indicate Deep Focus Flow States in Teams
Have you ever been so laser focused on a task-playing a video game, reading an engrossing book, and so on-that when you look up, hours have suddenly gone by? This is commonly referred to as flow state: a state of absorbed concentration and a distorted sense of time. Studies have shown that working in the flow state has a positive impact on happiness and productivity.

To the point A new replication study reviews and confirms previous research findings on the influence of digital media on democracy. Digital media such as social media, messenger groups or comment columns in online media have a predominantly negative influenc e on political processes. They can encourage populist movements, increase polarization and undermine trust in institutions.

Multiple antibiotic resistance is auxiliary to bacterial fitness and adaptability Could a gene regulatory network in gut microbes have evolved its elaborate and tightly regulated molecular machinery only to pump out antibiotics indiscriminately? Researchers from the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) show this is an auxiliary function.

Neural stem cells outside the brain
The detection of peripheral neural stem cells could transform the treatment of Parkinson's disease and spinal cord injuries To the point Peripheral neural stem cells: Researchers have discovered a new type of neural stem cell in the lungs of mice. These cells have similar properties to the known neural stem cells in the brain, including self-rejuvenation and differentiation ability.

Cambridge researchers have created a 'metal detector' algorithm that can hunt down vulnerable tumours, in a development that could one day revolutionise the treatment of cancer. Genomic sequencing is now far faster and cheaper than ever before. We are getting closer to the point where getting your tumour sequenced will be as routine as a scan or blood test Serena Nik-Zainal In a paper published today in Nature Genetics, scientists at the University of Cambridge and NIHR Cambridge Biomedical Research Centre analysed the full DNA sequence of 4,775 tumours from seven types of cancer.

Long-standing problem solved: Researchers discover that misfolding prevents efficient utilisation of so-called split inteins as 'protein glue' Proteins are the building blocks of life. They consist of folded peptide chains, which in turn are made up of a series of amino acids. From stabilising cell structure to catalysing chemical reactions, proteins have many functions.

A recent study reports the first direct observation of merging star clusters in the nuclear region of dwarf galaxies in Nature . The team was studying observations from the Hubble Space telescope, which were led by Francine Marleau from the University of Innsbruck. This detection confirms the feasibility of this formation route for nuclei in dwarf galaxies, which has long been debated.

The preservation of at least some glacier ice in the Tyrolean Alps depends largely on whether the global temperature limit of +1.5 °C is maintained. If the global average temperature rises above this, all glaciers in the region can be expected to disappear completely - many of them within the next few years.

How can artificial intelligence enhance our understanding of the visual system in the brain? An international research team (MICrONS), with the participation of the University of Göttingen, has developed new AI models to decode the complex processing of visual stimuli in the brain. The researchers investigated how the shape, connectivity and activity of nerve cells in the mouse brain are related.

New drone-assisted 3D model offers a more accurate way to date dinosaur fossils
McGill researchers' discovery opens the way to a clearer understanding of ancient biodiversity shifts A new study from McGill University is reshaping how scientists date dinosaur fossils in Alberta's Dinosaur Provincial Park (DPP). Using advanced drone-assisted 3D mapping, researchers have uncovered significant variations in a key geological marker, challenging long-standing methods of determining the ages of dinosaur fossils.

Computer model that ’thinks’ like a missing person could help search & rescue
A new method of predicting where people lost in the wilderness may be found based on simulations of their decision-making processes could help mountain rescue teams save lives in the future. Researchers from the University of Glasgow have developed a sophisticated computer system to model the actions of simulated people lost in outdoor environments.

Physicists have made a landmark discovery, uncovering the first clear evidence that matter particles, known as baryons, behave differently from their antimatter counterparts. The finding, from CERN's LHCb experiment, which includes scientists at The University of Manchester, provides new understanding of the 'standard Model' of particle physics and a new piece in the puzzle to explain how and why matter ended up dominating over antimatter after the big Bang to form the Universe we see today.

Parents influence their children's biology more than previously thought
Parental genetic traits linked to changes in children's DNA methylation A new study, published in the journal Molecular Psychiatry , shows that parents' genetic traits-especially those of mothers-can influence how their children's DNA is expressed, even when those traits are not directly inherited.

Researchers at ETH Zurich have unravelled the complex network that cells use to repair their genetic material. By examining thousands upon thousands of genetic interactions, the team has discovered new vulnerabilities in cancer cells that could be exploited therapeutically in the future. The DNA of human cells consists of a sequence of about 3.1 billion building blocks.

Researchers led by the University of Waterloo have discovered how to turn common bacteria into high-efficiency factories capable of producing tiny, powerful particles for drug delivery, cancer therapy, vaccine development and other biomedical uses. Led by Yilan Liu , a Waterloo chemical engineering professor, the international research team altered bacteria found in the human gut, or gastrointestinal tract, to dramatically increase the number of bubble-shaped nanoparticles they secrete.
