Heed these words, even though you do not want to.“What does it say?”“Beats me.”“Isn’t language supposed to be a big subject for a linguistics specialist?”“These are alien languages, meathead. They’re going to take years to figure out.”“Languages plural?”“From the patterns in the glyphs, it looks like it’s the same message repeated multiple…

Credit: Panuwat Dangsungnoen / iStock / Getty Images Plus Scientists from École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) have developed a first-of-its-kind ingestible bioprinter capable of navigating the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and depositing bio-ink directly onto ulcers or hemorrhages. The new device, which is roughly the size of a drug capsule, is called the Magnetic Endoluminal Deposition System (MEDS) and functions like a tiny ballpoint pen, dispensing a biogel through a spring-loaded plunger onto the tissue needing repair. Details of this new technology are published in the journal Science Advances. “By combining the principles of in situ bioprinters with the drug…

Success rates for Europe’s leading research grants are declining — some to single percentage points — as a surge in applications far outweighs the funds available. Data gathered by Nature show that researchers, especially those at the start of their academic journeys, are facing increasingly fierce competition to pursue research careers (see ‘Funding competition’).Last month, the European Commission said that the European Union’s research and innovation framework programme had received the highest number of funding proposals in its four-decade history this year.Applications for the 2025 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Postdoctoral Fellowships exceeded 17,000 — an increase of nearly 65% compared…

An ice cream scoop makes hollowing out pumpkins quicker and easier.Thinner pumpkin walls mean smoother, safer carving for your designs.You don’t need to buy extra tools—repurpose what’s already in your kitchen. Fall is, by far, my favorite season. Growing up in the Northeast, the arrival of cooler weather and changing leaves always signaled the start of this magical season full of festive traditions, like apple picking and carving pumpkins for Halloween. The latter is still a favorite, and last year I made a serendipitous discovery: An ice cream scoop makes pumpkin carving so much easier. If you’ve carved pumpkins before,…

Human karyotype of Down syndrome. Autosomal abnormalities. Trisomy 21. [Rujirat Boonyong/Getty Images] Faulty brain circuits seen in Down syndrome may be caused by the lack of a particular molecule essential for the development and function of the nervous system, according to a new study in lab mice. Restoring the molecule, called pleiotrophin, could improve brain function in Down syndrome and other neurological diseases, possibly even in adults, the researchers say. The scientists conducted their work in mice, rather than in people, so the approach is far from being available as a treatment. But the researchers found that administering pleiotrophin improved…
