Two New Hallucinogenic Mushrooms Found

Biology, Science /

Two new hallucinogenic fungi species have been discovered and formally classified, adding to the approximately 140 known varieties of psychoactive gilled mushrooms. Researchers from Stellenbosch University, along with citizen mycologists, used phylogenetic and morphological analysis to confirm that the two mushrooms, Psilocybe ingeli and Psilocybe maluti, are novel species. These were found in southern Africa, […]

The Anti-Aging Compound Rejuvenates Youth Indicators Effectively

Biology, Genetics, Science /

In pre-clinical studies, a small molecule successfully stimulated neuron regeneration, decreased inflammation, and enhanced memory, speed, coordination, grip strength, and other factors. These findings hold significant promise for aging and associated diseases. Researchers at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center investigated telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT), an enzyme crucial for synthesizing and elongating telomeres—the

New Dinosaur Named After a Deity Due to its Unique Headgear

Biology, Science /

The Natural History Museum of Utah has unveiled a previously undiscovered species of horned, herbivorous dinosaur, an ancestor of the Triceratops. Its distinctive and impressive headgear has led to it being named after a deity. Paleontologists discovered fragments of the dinosaur’s skull in 2019 in northern Montana, near the US-Canada border. As they began assembling

Do Plants Have Surprising Intelligence? Cornell Discovers in Goldenrod

Biology, Science /

Recent research reveals that goldenrod plants exhibit a form of intelligence by adjusting their responses to herbivores based on neighboring plants and environmental cues, challenging conventional notions of intelligence. Goldenrod can sense the presence of nearby plants without physical contact, using cues like far-red light ratios reflected from leaves. When grazed upon by herbivores, it

New Research Unveils: The Impact of a Father’s Diet Before Conception on Child Health

Biology, Cell Biology /

Recent research has highlighted the significant role a father’s diet before conception plays in the health of his children, suggesting that improving paternal health and diet could help prevent metabolic disorders in offspring. Dr. Raffaele Teperino and his team at Helmholtz Munich’s “Environmental Epigenetics” research group investigated how a father’s pre-conception diet influences his children’s

How does a Small Fern Has Genome 50x Larger Than Humans

Biology, Cell Biology, Science /

A printed version of the entire human genome would fill 220 large books. However, printing the genome of a small fern found on a few Pacific islands would take almost 11,000 books. This plant, called Tmesipteris oblanceolata, has the largest known genome of any organism, as discovered by Jaume Pellicer at the Botanical Institute of
