- Blood pressure drugs lower heart risk quickly, and the benefit does not grow with more years of treatment.
- People whose immune cells reacted fastest and hardest were more likely to get sick from flu.
- A globally consistent, year by year map of human migration across 230 countries from 1990 to the present, reconstructed with deep learning.
- Dangerous heat stress has intensified across every continent since 1950, its geographic footprint is expanding, and the hottest nights are warming faster than the hottest days.
- Deep brain stimulation that decodes what a Parkinson’s patient is doing in real time and adapts to it improved walking while preserving control of other motor symptoms.
- Across 140 studies, social disadvantage is associated with faster biological ageing, and newer epigenetic clocks detect this far more sensitively than older ones.
- Direct signatures of superconducting vortices splitting into fractional pieces that assemble into a new type of topological defect, a chiral skyrmion.
- Alpine biodiversity is concentrated in tropical mountains and, unlike most life on Earth, shows no consistent decline with latitude.
