How computers learned to spot what they are looking at in photos

A thirty-year review of object detection shows that modern systems can spot unfamiliar items using text clues, but picking the right tool is always a balance between speed, cost, and accuracy.

How hidden astrocyte subtypes help rewire injured brains

A surface protein called CD51 marks a specialised subgroup of brain cells in mice that builds connections, adjusts circuits, and aids recovery after a stroke.

When Food Runs Out, Top Predators Turn on Each Other

After decades of peaceful coexistence, Iberian lynx started hunting predatory kites when drought and disease wiped out their shared rabbit prey. This sudden clash forced the birds to flee, reshaping the local food web.

Why tiny ocean swirls act as a natural brake on marine heatwaves

High-resolution modelling shows that tiny ocean motions weaken vertical heat flow during winter marine heatwaves, significantly curbing their intensity.

How computer vision is learning surgical instrument counting

A computer vision model achieved a 72.7% success rate when detecting and counting surgical tools in simulated operation videos. While promising for patient safety, it struggled to spot tiny items like needles.

Why sea snails struggle to reset after ocean acidification

Marine whelks exposed to acidified water suffer cell damage and costly energy trade-offs. Even when returned to clean water, their bodies remain altered rather than fully healed.

How flexible neural networks spot depression in brain waves

A computer model trained on brain electrical signals identified depression with over 94% accuracy on a benchmark dataset by learning the complex, curved shapes of neural rhythms.

What mysterious marine Hikarchaeia microbes do in ocean depths

A five-year study reveals how rare, uncultivated Hikarchaeia microbes divide the ocean by depth and geography, peaking regularly with the seasons.

Why an ocean heatwave triggered a massive hybrid crab surge in the Bering Sea

Seven years after an extreme Bering Sea marine heatwave wiped out snow crab stocks, researchers recorded an unprecedented surge in rare snow-Tanner hybrid crabs.

Why zooming into marine food webs reveals hidden trouble on the seabed

Broad ocean surveys can hide local sea-life loss, according to past records from the Northeast Atlantic. When a team tested small grid cells rather than whole zones, apparent safety gave way to sharp drops.
