Why does your brain mix up memories? A new study examines how memories are misplaced in your brain’s filing cabinets
4+ day, 28+ min ago (539+ words) The brain's hippocampus inappropriately changes memories between different memory phases as people get older, new research suggests. This helps explain why memories become less precise — but not forgotten — as people age. Old age and forgetfulness seem to go hand in…...
Dutch men went from averaging about 5 feet 5 inches in the mid-1800s to nearly 6 feet today, gaining almost 8 inches in roughly 150 years, but researchers found natural selection may explain less than 2% of that extraordinary national growth spurt

Anyone who drove long distances in the 1980s may remember stopping to scrape insects from the windscreen — and noticing, years later, that it was no longer necessary. Standardised trapping across German nature reserves found flying insect biomass had fallen 76 percent in just 27 years.
2+ hour, 46+ min ago (814+ words) The disappearance of insects from our windscreens masks a catastrophe unfolding across ecosystems worldwide, with consequences we are only beginning to understand.
