Some of the most important tools in the toolbox of modern cell biologists are special chunks of DNA that act like spies, reporting on the cell's function. The markers, known as reporter genes, allow researchers to get a sense for what cells are doing by watching genetic programs embedded in their DNA turn on and off.

Indigenous people will soon be able to give their testimony in Manitoba courts after swearing their oath on an eagle feather. A ceremony to mark the introduction of eagle feathers into every provincial courtroom was held Thursday morning at the Oodena Celebration Circle at The Forks in Winnipeg.

Banks are attempting to shield themselves from climate change at taxpayers’ expense, by shifting riskier mortgages — such as those in coastal areas — off their books and over to the federal government, new research suggests. The findings, presented in a paper to be released Monday, represent “a potential threat to the stability of financial institutions,” according to the authors. They warn that the threat will grow as global warming leads to more frequent and more severe disasters, fo...

September means a lot of things. The muggy New York summer is winding down. Watchmakers are coming back from their summer holidays. And it's new Apple Watch time. This is now the fifth year that I've made the annual pilgrimage out to Silicon Valley to be a part of the gaggle of reporters literally tripping over one another to be first to get their hands on Apple’s latest and greatest.

The Impossible Burger, a meat-free burger that’s previously only been available in restaurants, will be available to buy in grocery stores for the first time this week. Starting tomorrow, September 20th, you’ll be able to buy the plant-based burger in 27 Gelson’s Markets stores in Southern California. Impossible Foods says it will bring the burger to more grocery stores — including some on the East Coast — later this month, and it plans to reach every region of the US by the middle of ...

IBM continues to push its quantum computing efforts forward and today announced that it will soon make a 53-qubit quantum computer available to clients of its IBM Q Network. The new system, which is scheduled to go online in the middle of next month, will be the largest universal quantum computer available for external use yet.

When browsing the Internet in search of relevant information on Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, it is common to be redirected to forums or community sites such as Reddit or Quora. If we take a closer look at the questions asked about Bitcoin and Altcoins, we realize that a question comes up almost all the time: which cryptocurrency will be the next Bitcoin?

The U.S. housing finance system is worse off today than it was on the cusp of the 2008 financial crisis, Republican lawmakers and Trump administration officials warned on Tuesday. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the two government-controlled enterprises that stand behind half the country's mortgages, are way too undercapitalized, and lending standards have actually deteriorated since the housing crash, the officials said.

Scientists at the University of California, San Diego, have used stem cells to create miniature lab-grown brains that produce brain waves resembling those of preterm babies. The team created cerebral organoids i.e. a scaled-down model of the human brain, about the size of a pea. Furthermore, in July this year, NASA packed these organoids and sent them to International Space Station to test out how these mini-brains develop in zero gravity.

Silicon has powered the information age, but it’s reaching its physical limits. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) hold a lot of promise as a replacement if we can get around some key obstacles—and the designers of a new chip seem to have done just that. For decades computer power steadily increased in line with Moore’s Law, which observed that the number of transistors in a chip doubled roughly every two years.
