The cases, obtained by CBS News under FOIA, appear to be the first public U.S. accounts linking illicit retatrutide to a death, though the details are unverified.
Physicists at Tampere, Harvard and TU Dresden show a quantum particle in a chaotic space stays at least twice as likely to be found in its original state as in any comparable one, a rule that classical chaos forbids.
Marko Lončar's lab 'dressed' a silicon-vacancy spin with phonons instead of microwave pulses. The technique works inside the phononic cavities that would link nodes of a chip-scale quantum network, letting sound do both jobs at once.
Using electric currents and water-based enzymes, a semiconductor chip synthesized 64 DNA sequences in parallel — a cleaner alternative to conventional DNA manufacturing.
Groundbreaking connectome study shows complex behaviors emerge from distributed local circuits rather than central brain control, challenging assumptions about how nervous systems work.
Groundbreaking connectome study shows complex behaviors emerge from distributed local circuits rather than central brain control, offering new understanding of how nervous systems work.
Groundbreaking connectome of 160,000 neurons suggests complex behaviors emerge from distributed local circuits rather than centralized brain control, offering new clues about how nervous systems work.
Harvard and other targeted institutions see funding restored following inquiries from news outlets about White House pressure on research programs.
The hacking group claims to have stolen 275 million records — including billions of private messages — from Instructure, the parent of the Canvas learning platform used by Harvard, MIT, Penn, Oxford and thousands of K–12 districts.
Researchers at Harvard and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center demonstrated for the first time that a modified CRISPR technique can silence the extra copy of chromosome 21 that causes Down syndrome in human stem cells, targeting the root cause rather than individual symptoms.
Megachelicerax cousteaui, an 8-centimeter Cambrian arthropod from Utah described by Harvard researchers in Nature, pushes chelicerate origins back 20 million years and confirms molecular clock predictions about when arachnid ancestors first appeared.
New federal investigations examine whether Harvard complied with the Supreme Court's affirmative action ruling and adequately responded to documented Jewish student harassment.
WatchThe Department of Justice filed a federal lawsuit Friday alleging Harvard leadership showed 'deliberate indifference' to the harassment, assault, and stalking of Jewish and Israeli students after October 7 — escalating the administration's financial war on elite universities to an unprecedented level.
