Researchers sent worms aboard a space shuttle and foudn that these worms actually have an increased lifespan.

One reason for the malignancy of cancer cells could be their response to physical pressure in their environment, upon which they produce 5 daughter cells compared to the normal 2.

Researchers working on the syphilis disease are using a novel way to extract samples of this tricky customer- by looking for them in ancient fossils.

Research presented to the Society for Experimental Biology used street athletes to measure different modes of navigating a forest.

To be proved wrong has never felt so good! To be a part of the historic moment is awesome!

The Higgs Boson has finally been found! That’s it!

The web has been buzzing with the probable discovery of the Higgs Boson and the upcoming CERN press conference has generated a lot of interest. We aim to caution you – tread lightly on Higgs discovery news, as there isn’t enough data yet to make that claim. Here’s a thought…

China’s Xinhua news agency reports today that “China’s Shenzhou 9 Mission Successful”

The latest in the long line of attempts to subvert the well-established theory of evolution by the creationist movement involves the Loch Ness monster. By claiming the existence of this creature, the creationists are saying that Darwin was wrong. No, no, we aren’t joking.

The giant of the Pinta island of the Galapagos archipelago, Lonesome George, has died. This brings to end his entire species. RIP

China have successfully performed a manual docking of an unmanned space craft with their own space station module. This is one of the hardest maneuvers to perform and the Chinese have a lot to celebrate about!

The Higgs boson search status will be announced in the upcoming CERN conference to be held in Geneva on the 4th of July. Incidentally, ICHEP, one of the biggest high energy conferences, is also supposed to start on the same day.

The Kepler Space Telescope has again come up with something that has spurred on the imagination of the astrophysics community. It has discovered two exoplanets which couldn’t have formed if we believe current planet formation theories. What’s going on?

The Higgs Boson search has advanced from where it was in December, but it has still not attained the position of a discovery. The LHC simply doesn’t have enough data to provide the tag of a ‘discovery’ to the Higgs particle. Don’t believe the rumors, here’s the real deal.

The latest data from the BaBar experiment at Stanford Linear Accelerator has turned up data which contradicts the Standard Model and predicts an anomalous rate of decay for certain types of mesons. Is this the first real sign of Physics Beyond Standard Model?
