"It has become more accepted in the past ten years that it is not a single biological entity," says Edmund Sonuga-Barke, a neuroscientist at King's College London. That may explain why specific psy...

“过去十年来，人们越来越接受它不是一个单一的生物实体，”伦敦国王学院的神经学家埃德蒙·索努加·巴克说道。这或许可以解释为什么特定的心理干预措施（如改善工作记忆的疗法）未能产生效果。 相比之下，药物治疗却非常有效。最常用的精神兴奋剂有助...

It is "like being inside a pinball machine with a hundred balls," says Lucy. "Three inner monologues," says Phillip. "Like several tracks playing at the same time," says Sarah. This is how peop...

露西说，这“就像置身于一台有一百个球的弹球机中”。“三个内心独白，”菲利普说。“就像同时播放几首曲子，”莎拉说。这就是患有注意力缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)的人描述他们脑子里某一时刻的想法的方式。 有这么多的想法争夺注意力，很难集中注意力...

A new study suggests that patients with breast cancer who take additional vitamins during chemotherapy treatment may face increased risks. Researchers said the use of dietary supplements that increas...

一项新的研究表明，在化疗期间服用额外维生素的乳腺癌患者可能会面临更高的风险。 研究人员表示，使用增加抗氧化剂、铁、维生素 B12 和 omega-3 脂肪酸水平的膳食补充剂似乎会降低化疗的有效性。 研究人员在《临床肿瘤学杂志》上报告了他们的...

Scientists are using hydrogels, which are gels mostly made up of water, to make the next generation of soft electronics and soft robots. Their inspiration is nature, where hydrogels abound. We a...

科学家们正在使用水凝胶，这些凝胶主要由水组成，制造下一代软电子产品和软体机器人。 他们的灵感来自大自然，水凝胶比比皆是的地方。 我们主要是来自组织的水凝胶和肌肉到我们的大脑。 我们的软零件如何与硬材料相结合就像我们的骨骼和牙齿使我们变得特别...

Dr Fril started with barley, which has the longest spikes of the three, and therefore the most potential for fine tuning. (He also likes a glass of beer.) Besides tweaking the spike lengths, his te...

弗里尔博士从大麦开始实验，大麦在三种植物中具有最长的穗，因此最有微调的潜力。(他也喜欢喝大麦啤酒。) 除了调整穗状物的长度，他的团队还在改良后的大麦植株上装上了夜樱草的蜂群检测和产生花蜜等基因。 再加上其他一些基因重组，可以致使营养物...

I’d rather have a science balloon than a science satellite With a balloon, there’s no need for rockets. To get a satellite to hover over the same spot on earth -- geostationary orbit-- you you ha...

我宁愿有一个科学气球比科学卫星还要好有了气球，就不需要火箭了。 让卫星悬停在地球上的同一地点-- 地球静止轨道-- 你你必须在 36,000 公里之外——距离太远，无法使用某些传感器，例如雷达一个气球可以坐得更近 1000 倍——在平流层，...

Gene-editing has created a generation of musical crops. It has been known for some time that plants can talk to one another. Many communicate chemically, both through the air and via their roots...

基因编辑创造了一代音乐作物。 人们知道植物可以相互交谈已经有段时间了。许多植物通过空气和树根进行化学交流——例如，相互警告食草昆虫的到来，以便协调它们对这些害虫的反应。这些反应通常也是一种交流形式，即进一步释放化学物质，以“招募”这些...

您可能已经注意到闪闪发光的颜色肥皂泡产生上次洗碗的时候这种虹彩是光反射的结果穿过气泡——在鸟类羽毛中也发现了作为结构色——微观表面特征控制光的反射。 通常，结构色很难用作颜料因为它们是彩虹色的——这意味着它们看起来不一样从各个角度看，或者不...
