A series of experiments on mice has found that they become more aggressive when their gut microbiome is depleted. Additionally, transplanting gut microbiota from human infants exposed to antibiotics led to heightened aggression in mice compared to those receiving microbiome…
When we reviewed Diablo IV, the latest installment in the long-running action roleplaying game series last year, we said it was off to a hell of a good start. But ARPGs live and die by their endgame loops, and it…
Early October is an exciting time for science. It’s when the annual Nobel Prizes for physics, chemistry and physiology or medicine are announced. These awards are widely considered the highest honors in science. The winners don’t just take home gold…
We’ve tested fitness trackers for years and we recommend this smartwatch deal — down to its cheapest price for Prime Day in October, with nearly 30% savings.
John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton used tools from physics to develop data analysis methods that underlie machine learning.
