Researchers find Indo-European language source
The remains of a male associated with the Middle Neolithic Salzmünde culture in Germany.
A recent study has suggested that a vast human migration by ancient Eastern European steppe herders may have spread Indo-European languages to other parts of Europe.
The study was carried out by a team of researchers from the US, Australia, and other countries by assessing multiple libraries of DNA samples from...
Nuts diet in pregnancy may lower baby’s allergies risk
A new study demonstrates that those mothers who consume nuts during the pregnancy may have the babies with less likely involved with nuts allergy.
The study conducted by American researchers suggests that early exposure in mother’s womb may develop natural tolerance to certain foods in baby.
The researchers followed the health and diets of over 8,000 children and their mothers, according to the...
High blood sugar levels raise Alzheimer's risk
American researchers have pinpointed higher blood-sugar levels play significant role in increasing the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.
While the disease is seen more in diabetes, the new study tried to explore how blood sugar was associated with the mind-robbing disease.
The study researchers examined blood sugar in all sorts of people, with and without diabetes, to find the link, according...
Astronomers Discover Nearby Planet Composed of Diamonds
Illustration shows cross-section view of 55 Cancri e
A team of American-Franco researchers led by Yale University have discovered a nearby planet, twice as big as Earth, with a mantle that could be composed largely of diamonds.
The planet, known as 55 Cancri e, is located just 40 light years away in the constellation of Cancer and is likely covered in diamond and graphite rather than water and granite,...
Marriage, cancer survival linked in patients
A new study conducted by the American researchers demonstrates that married patients who are suffering from various cancers have a better survival rate.
Researchers in the University of Maryland’s Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Cancer Center in Baltimore found that married patients with lung cancer were likely to survive longer after treatment than those ones who were single.
The team observed...
Scientists capture beams of light using 25000 miniscule invisibility cloaks
Findings: researchers found that these tiny invisibility cloaks altered around 20 per cent of any given surface area
While the idea of an invisibility cloak may seem more science fiction than actual science, a group of American researchers are well on their way.
Researchers from Towson University and the University of Maryland used 25,000 individual cloaks 30 micrometres in diameter to slow down light...
Breakthrough in Influenza A
The first antibody which can fight all types of the influenza A virus has been discovered, according to American researchers.
Experiments on flu-infected mice, published in Science Express, showed the antibody could be used as an “emergency treatment.”
It has already been suggested that some people who had swine flu may develop ‘super immunity’ to other infections. As a result,...
New 'Little Ice Age' underway
The Earth will enter a new 'Little Ice Age' due to low sunspots.
American researchers say sun spot activity will start to recede in the next two years leading the Earth towards a new ‘Little Ice Age’ in the coming years.
Three separate studies conducted by scientists of the American Astronomical Society’s solar physics division say solar activity will start to recede after...
