Scientists have long known that octopus is an extraordinary organism with a very complex brain and thinking abilities unique to invertebrate creatures. According to a new study led by International Sc...
There must be secret linguistic communication between dark matter and common matter in the Universe. What is this? Gravity may be the reason for this discussion. A new SISSA study published in "The As...
Researchers at International School for Advanced Studies (ISSA) in Italy may have just discovered the reason for the remarkable intelligence in octopuses and active jumping genes. Read the article...
The neural and cognitive complexity of these animals could originate from a molecular analogy with the human brain, as discovered by a research paper recently published in BMC Biology and coordinated ...
A new POLARBEAR collaboration study, led by SISSA for the interpretation-related component for Cosmology and published in Astrophysical Journal provides a new correction algorithm that allows research...
By analyzing data from four observatories in space, European astronomers presented a complete and thorough X-ray view of an active galactic nucleus in a nearby spiral galaxy known as NGC 4258. [...] a...
