  • A potential ‘anti-spice’ that could dial down the heat of fiery food
    on May 22, 2025

    If you’ve ever regretted ordering a spicy meal, take note: A new study identifying molecules that suppress the heat of chili peppers hints at the possibility of adapting these compounds into an ‘anti-spice’ condiment for food that’s too fiery to eat. The research helps explain differences in chili pepper pungency, or spiciness, by identifying three compounds in a range of pepper samples that chemical analysis predicted, and study participants on a tasting panel confirmed, are linked to lower […]

A team put six generative AIs — including ChatGPT — to the test using emotional intelligence (EI) assessments typically designed for humans.

    on May 21, 2025

    In 2022 a team discovered that high levels of OH radicals can be generated indoors, simply due to the presence of people and ozone. This means: People generate their own oxidation field and change the indoor air chemistry around them within their own personal space. Now, in a follow-up study again in cooperation with an international research team, they found that commonly applied personal care products substantially suppress a human’s production of OH radicals. These findings have implications […]

  • Are groovy brains more efficient?
    on May 21, 2025

    The smallest grooves on the brain’s surface, unique to humans, have largely been ignored by anatomists, but recent studies show that they’re related to cognitive performance, including face recognition and reasoning ability. A new study shows that the depths of these tertiary sulci are also linked to increased interconnectedness between areas of the brain associated with reasoning and high-level cognitive functions. The sulci may decrease the length of neural connections, improving […]
