On this week’s new episode of her Drama Queens podcast she co-hosts with One Tree Hill co-stars Hilarie Burton Morgan and Sophia Bush, Lenz revealed she was in a cult at one point. “I was in a cult for 10 years,” she shared. “That would be a really valuable experience to write about, and the recovery,” Lenz said, adding that it took around ten years to recover. “There’s a lot to tell,” the actress affirmed but revealed she wasn’t quite…
The “synthetic embryos” have been created from stem cells grown in the labAndrew Vodolazhskyi/Alamy A team at the University of Cambridge has announced making the first human “synthetic embryos” – embryo-like structures made from stem cells – that have been grown to a stage equivalent to just past 14 days old, the legal limit to study natural embryos in the UK.

One thing we enjoy about all of the different streaming services available to us is that we have the ability to re-watch the classic shows we love repeatedly. Nothing is better than starting your twentieth watch of Gilmore Girls every time fall rolls around and the scent of pumpkin spice fills the air. However, these services also allow us to watch new shows that remind us of our favorites. Teen dramas are iconic and are such a large part of pop culture. For years they have entertained multiple generations of teens and continue to do so. No wonder why we…
Humans have long been successful predators, thanks to our advanced cognition, tools and technology. And now a new study examining human predation’s influence on nature reveals some fresh insights, such as the fact that we capture even more terrestrial vertebrate species for medicine, the exotic pet trade and other uses than we do for food—setting us apart as a highly unusual kind of predator. Study author Chris Darimont, an ecologist who is also an avid hunter and angler, says he first thought to look at patterns of human predation after he heard fellow hunters disparagingly calling wolves and bears “goddamn…

It could just be me, but the older I get, the more I find myself drawn to the minimalistic side of life. Less is more, and all that. When it comes to my wardrobe, rather than experimenting with trends like I used to, these days, I’m investing in those classic pieces that I know I’ll want to pull out year after year. Yes, it has a lot to do with wanting my closet to work a lot more sustainably, and buying fewer better items that last is the first step towards that. But a collection full of elevated yet understated capsule…
A team of engineers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has recently shown that nearly any material can be turned into a device that continuously harvests electricity from humidity in the air.
