What does coffee do to your body?Billions of people rely on a cup of coffee to get them through the day. But what does it do to the human body?

Life With Long COVID Comparable to Parkinson's And StrokeWhen most people think of COVID now, they picture a short illness like a cold – a few days of fever, sore throat or cough before getting better.

Tiny green tea beads trap fat and melt away pounds without side effectsResearchers have created plant-based microbeads that trap fat in the gut, helping rats lose weight without side effects. Unlike current drugs, the beads are safe, tasteless, and easy to mix into everyday foods. Human trials are now underway.

Recent Solar loops and flare, Aug 22 2025

Sea-level projections from the 1990s were spot on, study saysGlobal sea-level change has now been measured by satellites for more than 30 years, and a comparison with climate projections from the mid-1990s shows that they were remarkably accurate, according to two Tulane University researchers whose findings were published in Earth's Future.

Oil and gas air pollution linked to 91,000 early deaths in the US each yearAir pollution from oil and gas is causing 91,000 premature deaths and hundreds of thousands of health issues across the United States annually, with Black, Asian, Native American and Hispanic groups consistently the most affected, finds a major new study led by researchers at UCL and the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI).

If You've Breathed Wildfire Smoke, Scientists Just Found Something HorrifyingWildfires are getting more frequent across the globe — and according to a new study, smoke from these blazes is deadlier than we thought.

Machine learning can predict dengue fever with 80% accuracyResearchers at Northeastern University can predict the emergence of a dengue fever outbreak with 80% accuracy—a breakthrough for public health officials tasked with preparing careworkers to handle spikes in the disease.

AI detects early prostate cancer in more than 80% of samples missed by pathologistsMen assessed as healthy after a pathologist analyzes their tissue sample may still have an early form of prostate cancer. Using AI, researchers at Uppsala University have been able to find subtle tissue changes that allow the cancer to be detected long before it becomes visible to the human eye.

HoverAir Aqua: World's first water-native drone (full specs)When I first got my hands on the HoverAir X1 Promax, I was impressed. Here was a drone that could literally fit in my pocket yet still crank out slick follow shots in crispy 8K. Now HoverAir has doubled down on its "self-flying camera" niche with something no one's done before: the world's first…

Ask Ethan: Can "zero-point energy" power the world?Throughout history, "free energy" has been a scammer's game, such as perpetual motion. But with zero-point energy, is it actually possible?

Wildfire raised local death rate by 67%, shows study on 2023 Hawaiʻi firesNew research unveils the true death toll of the deadly August 2023 wildfires which took place in Lāhainā, Maui, Hawaiʻi—and which temporarily made wildfire a leading cause of death in Maui. By comparing death rates over time, the scientists found that two-thirds more people died that August than would have been expected.

Rising temperatures linked to declining moods around the worldRising global temperatures affect human activity in many ways. Now, a new study illuminates an important dimension of the problem: very hot days are associated with more negative moods, as shown by a large-scale look at social media postings.
