The world's second largest economy is both the biggest producer and buyer of EVs.

Some rules were made to be broken.

It's a complex picture.

When West Virginia University biology undergraduate student Isabella Tuzzio tested fish from central Appalachian streams, her research revealed microplastics in every fish she sampled.

Researchers have discovered an unusual plume of magma beneath Oman that may have changed the course of the Indian tectonic plate between 25 million and 40 million years ago.

Encouraging early signs.

California's San Andreas Fault is capable of triggering a massive earthquake. Here's what to know about this famous location often associated with earthquakes.

A phenomenon that's never been documented.

Large language models (LLMs), such as the model underpinning the functioning of the well-known conversational platform ChatGPT, have proved to be very promising for summarizing and generating written texts. However, they could also be interesting tools for conducting research rooted in psychology, behavioral science and other scientific disciplines.

Here's what they found.

AI tools that provide information to you also gather lots of information from you and may provide it to third parties.

The Dark Energy Camera captured glowing nebulae in the Chamaeleon I star-forming region, illuminating the dense clouds with newborn starlight.

Colistin is a potent, last-resort antibiotic used only to treat people with dangerous, life-threatening bacterial infections that have developed resistance to other drugs. But it's not foolproof. Worldwide, resistance to colistin is spreading, further diminishing treatment options and putting infected people at higher risk.

When it comes to exceptional eyesight, picking a clear winner is harder than you might think.

Embezzlement of entanglement is an exotic phenomenon in quantum information science, describing the possibility of extracting entanglement from a resource system without changing its quantum state. In this context, the resource systems play the role of a catalyst, enabling a state transition that would otherwise be impossible, without being consumed in the process. For embezzlement of entanglement to be possible, the resource state needs to be highly entangled.

This week, medical researchers ruled out brainstem CT scanning alone for proof of neurologic death. Researchers at Yale presented new evidence that the brain stores and retrieves visuomotor associations in graph-like cognitive structures. And a new vision-language model generates inspection plans based on written descriptions without training.

A stunning new image of the Sculptor Galaxy, located 11 million light-years away, painted in thousands of colors by the VLT, reveals the intricacies of galactic systems.
