A woman from the small town of Dozule, Normandy, claimed she saw Jesus 49 times during the 1970s, receiving messages, prophecies, and even an alleged order to build a 7.38-meter cross on a nearby hill. Now, the Holy See has…

A groundbreaking study by researchers from Columbia University and McGill University has identified a brain protein, SGK1, that appears to play a key role in the development of depression and suicidal thoughts in individuals who experienced childhood trauma. The researchers found that elevated SGK1 levels are strongly associated with adults who endured physical abuse, neglect,…
Scientists in China have taken a giant leap in data storage, transforming the classic audio cassette into a futuristic memory device. Using double-helix DNA molecules, researchers have created a 100-meter-long tape that could theoretically hold 36 petabytes of data — enough for around seven billion songs. This breakthrough has the potential to revolutionize how we…
A groundbreaking discovery is reshaping our understanding of sleep: it’s not controlled solely by the brain but also influenced by the gut microbiome. Researchers at Washington State University (WSU) have identified bacterial molecules called peptidoglycans in the brains of mice, which appear to directly regulate sleep cycles. These molecules, naturally produced by gut bacteria, fluctuate…
An international team of researchers from Germany, Canada, and the UK has identified a remarkable mechanism in the brain that could transform how obesity is treated.
