Scientists create a cancer flashlight that lights up tumors

Researchers at the University of Missouri have engineered a minibody that binds the cancer‑associated protein EphA2 and, when labeled with a PET tracer, makes tumors light up on scans, offering a rapi

Little liars: babies younger than one practise deceit, study suggests

New research shows that babies under one already practice simple deception—ignoring parents and hiding toys—and by three they spin full‑blown fibs, indicating that the roots of lying emerge far earlie

Could a recently detected ultra-high-energy neutrino be linked to new physics?

A 220 PeV neutrino spotted by KM3NeT has no counterpart in IceCube’s decade‑long data, prompting Oklahoma State physicists to invoke sterile neutrinos and exotic oscillations as a possible bridge. The
