Migration choices and contributions across rounds at each lab. Credit: Lo Iacono et al A multi-lab replication of a 2006 study supports the role of peer sanction in promoting human cooperation.

Credit: Sonja Vasiljeva, Broad Communications Researchers have used a highly precise genome-editing technology called base editing to make hundreds of direct edits to blood stem cells from patients’ bone marrow.

The research team showed how such single-nucleotide changes in genes can affect the biology of blood cells and contribute to the treatment of diseases including leukemia and sickle cell disease. The findings suggest how the…
“For as long as I can remember, I’ve loved playing around with makeup. My mum had me when she was 21 and I remember her being quite experimental with her make-up during the early ’90s; thin brows and lined lips included. Nowadays her beauty aesthetic is much more natural and mirrors my own immensely. We swap new makeup finds, review recently-tried skincare, and debate which products we think are superior. Though our routines have changed over the years, my paternal grandmother’s has remained unchanged for the best part of 20 years. “One thing my grandma does which I always tell myself…

Growers have already reported wheat stem rust infections—which normally occur in the tropics—in Ireland and England. The experts…

The images in the bottom row were recreated from the brain scans of someone looking at those in the top rowYu Takagi and Shinji Nishimoto/Osaka University, Japan A tweak to a popular text-to-image-generating artificial intelligence allows it to turn brain signals directly into pictures.

Several research groups have previously generated images from brain signals using energy-intensive AI models that require fine-tuning of millions to billions of parameters. Now, Shinji Nishimoto and Yu Takagi at Osaka University in Japan…
“Remove the cling wrap or regular bandages as soon as you get home or in an environment where you can clean and wash the area properly—ideally by the end of the same day you received the tattoo,” Wallin says.

Life for all animals, including humans, would be simpler if diseases had a sign saying “beware!” with flashing lights and blaring alarms. Instead, we humans have developed an emotional reaction called disgust. Do other animals share similar protective mechanisms?

An international team of scientists has now set up a framework to test disgust and its associated disease avoidance behaviors across various animal species, social systems, and habitats. “Over 30 species have been reported to exhibit…
