Mushrooms Could Power Future Eco-Friendly Computers, Study Suggests
Researchers at The Ohio State University have turned mushrooms into organic memory devices that mimic brain-like computing. The fungal circuits, powered by shiitake and button mushrooms, can switch between electrical states thousands of times per second, offering a biodegradable, low-cost alternative to conventional microchips.

1.95-Million-Year-Old Evidence of Hominin Activity Discovered in Romania
A discovery in Romania’s Grăunceanu site has unearthed evidence of hominin activity dating back approximately 1.95 million years, much earlier than previously believed. The find, including butchered animal remains with cut marks, reveals that early humans were adapting to temperate environments long before expected. This reshapes our understandi...

Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Low Among Under-50 Adults, Despite Rising Cases
A recent survey by Ohio State University reveals a concerning lack of awareness about pancreatic cancer in adults under 50. With rates rising in this demographic, experts urge better understanding of risk factors, including obesity and lifestyle habits. Preventative measures such as weight management and awareness of family history are emphasised a...

Brain Injuries May Raise the Risk of Alzheimer’s Disease, Say Researchers
Recent findings from The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center suggest that traumatic brain injuries (TBI) may significantly increase the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. The study highlights the role of the BAG3 protein in clearing harmful proteins from the brain. Enhancing BAG3 could potentially mitigate the cognitive decline assoc...

Ancient Viral Genomes in Glaciers Reveal Pathogens’ Climate Adaptation Over 41,000 Years
Researchers from The Ohio State University have uncovered how ancient viruses preserved in glacier ice have adapted to Earth's shifting climate over the past 41,000 years. By analysing viral genomes from the Guliya Glacier on the Tibetan Plateau, the study reveals significant variations in viral communities between cold and warm climatic periods. T...
