Quanta Magazine · The Mysterious Flow of Fluid in the Brain | Quanta MagazineA popular hypothesis for how the brain clears molecular waste, which may help explain why sleep feels refreshing, is a subject of debate.
Undergraduate Upends a 40-Year-Old Data Science Conjecture https://www.byteseu.com/836705/ #Data #Math) #QuantaMagazine #Science
33-year-old mathematician Wang Hong from the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences (CIMS-NYU) has proved the century-old Kakeya conjecture in three dimensions with collaborator Joshua Zahl!
The problem is rooted in the question: what's the smallest area that an infinitely thin needle can sweep out if it has to be turned to point in every possible direction?

Scientists Recreate the Conditions That Sparked Complex Life https://www.byteseu.com/686594/ #Bacteria #biology #Cells #evolution #microbes #QuantaMagazine #Science
Bytes Europe · Scientists Recreate the Conditions That Sparked Complex LifeThe original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine.Far from being solo operators, most single-celled microbes are in complex relationships. In the ocean, the soil, and your gut, they might battle and eat each other, exchange DNA, compete for nutrients, or feed on one another’s by-products. Sometimes they get even more intimate: One cell might slip inside another and make itself comfortable. If the conditions are just right, it might stay and be welcomed, sparking a relationship that could last for generations—or billions of years. This phenomenon of one cell living inside another, called endosymbiosis, has fueled the evolution

@lkogler Fascinating about the electro-powers! & thanks for the intro to #QuantaMagazine, I see there's an RSS relay here at @quantarss
@sarahtaber thanks for #bee facts & glorious photos!
Here’s an interesting article in #QuantaMagazine about advances in our understanding of how small animals like #honeybees sense and use electrostatic forces.
I like research like this that emphasises that what people sense as "normal" is very much a result of our scale.

Quanta Magazine · The Hidden World of Electrostatic Ecology | Quanta MagazineInvisibly to us, insects and other tiny creatures use static electricity to travel, avoid predators, collect pollen and more. New experiments explore how evolution may have influenced this phenomenon.
