The Science Explained Research shows the full Moon can modestly shorten sleep and delay sleep onset by altering evening light cues, but its effects on mental health are inconsistent. Learn what studies say and practical tips to protect sleep.
Read More 2025-10-23 COVID mRNA Vaccines May Boost Immunotherapy Success New analysis and lab research indicate COVID-19 mRNA vaccines may enhance the effectiveness of immune checkpoint inhibitors, potentially converting immunologically "cold" tumors into "hot" ones and improving survival in cancer patients.
Read More 2025-10-20 Supercharged Vitamin K: New Analogues May Reverse Alzheimer Researchers created hybrid vitamin K–retinoic acid compounds that boost neuronal differentiation threefold, bind mGluR1, cross the blood-brain barrier and raise active MK-4 in the brain — a promising lead for Alzheimer’s therapies.
Read More 2025-10-20 Seven Subtle Warning Signs of Brain Tumours to Watch For Subtle changes—like word-finding difficulty, lasting brain fog, one-sided numbness or odd visual distortions—can sometimes signal a brain tumour. Learn which seven warning signs patients often miss and when to seek urgent assessment.
Read More 2025-10-14 Brain Shape Changes May Predict Future Dementia Risk New UC Irvine and University of La Laguna research shows that specific 3D changes in brain shape, not just volume loss, correlate with cognitive decline and may help predict dementia risk, highlighting the entorhinal cortex's vulnerability.
