There are times when one feels mentally or physically drained after a video conference call well if you're one of them well you're not alone. A recent study has found that spending hours on video calls can lead to physical emotional or cognitive tiredness. Watch in for more details!

Zoom Fatigue May Affect Your Brain & Heart, Says Study

Researchers in a new study have uncovered secrets behind auditory hallucinations among schizophrenia patients which were earlier thought to be due to overactive imagination. They have now attributed brain's impairment to process and predict sensory information as the main reason behind 'hearing voices'.

Schizophrenia Myths Debunked: Scientists Decode Why Some Patients Hear 'Voices'

We know that plants don't hear sound like humans do but they actually feel vibrations. In fact plants use acoustic vibrations in their everyday lives. A new research revealed that playing a monotonous sound stimulates the activity of a fungus that promotes growth in plant. Watch in for more details!

How Does Music Boost Plant Growth?

Food is associated with happiness for many of us; no wonder there's something called stress eating. Now, a study on fruit flies found that there is a link between swallowing food and the release of happy hormones in the brain.

Mount Everest already the tallest peak on Earth is still rising and faster than scientists initially believed. WION explains how Everest's growth spurt is outpacing expectations making this towery giant even more formidable...

Mount Everest's Rapid Rise Leaves Scientists In Awe

How Tall Will Mount Everest Get Before It Stops Growing?

Mount Everest has been growing taller slowly over the years and that's not news, as the mountain was created when two tectonic plates crashed into each other over millennia.

Mount Everest is growing a bit faster than usual. And a 'river capture' may have to do with it

Most of the Asian population consists of rice eaters, but the region is also home to 60 per cent of the world's diabetes patients. Now, a premier research institute in the Philippines claims to have developed a new variety of rice that can reduce the risk of diabetes.

A rice variety that can counter diabetes has been unveiled, and could soon be grown in India

India's Chandrayaan-3 mission has achieved another remarkable success by discovering a key geological feature on the Moon. Following the successful deployment of its Pragyan rover at the Moon’s south pole in 2023, the mission has now captured images of a buried ancient crater measuring 160 kilometers wide near its landing site. Watch in for more details!

More than half the world does not trust its drinking water, and expects to be harmed by it in the next two years, a new global survey has found. The study was done using nationally representative data from 148,585 adults in 141 countries from the 2019 Lloyd’s Register Foundation World Risk Poll, according to a release.

What is love, or rather, 'where' is love? A fascinating new study has located where exactly love happens in our brains. More precisely, it has mapped how different types of love situations fire up different parts of the brain.

What is love? Now, researchers have mapped exactly which parts of brains fire up in various love situations

Our universe is full of mysteries and wonders, most of which are beyond our comprehension. Planets outside our solar system, called exoplanets, are one such marvel since their discovery in the early 1990s.

From The Bible to The Satanic Verses, several books were banned in parts of the world at various points in time due to the perception that they poison minds. But some books can be poisonous quite literally, as the chemicals used in their making are harmful to humans.

Some books are poisonous, quite literally, and can even cause cancer. Here is how

Researchers have decoded the largest animal genome, and it doesn't belong to giants like whales or elephants, but to a humble but strange-looking fish. The lungfish genome was found to be 30 times the size of the human genome.

This lungfish, known as 'living fossil', has largest-ever genome decoded, 30 times bigger than ours

The strange forms of small asteroids Dimorphos and Selam have fascinated astronomers for a long time. A recent study has revealed that these unusual shapes are not as rare as once thought, suggesting that these moonlets would be encountered more commonly.

AI or Artificial intelligence has been the buzzword in technology for the past few years. Some argue that it can be misused, while others think of it as a boon for various fields, from medicine to science to creative industries.

AI models do not pose existential threat to humanity, says researchers who conducted thousands of experiments

If a new study is to be believed, cats show signs of grief after a fellow pet in the household dies, even if it is a dog. The study published in Nature Journal was based on a survey of hundreds of people who own a cat and at least one other pet that died recently.

Cats show signs of grief when fellow pets die, even if it is a dog: Study

Animal genomes are known to be a storage space of memories. Perhaps the phrase 'etched in memory' had a real meaning after all. A new study has found that genomes of birds have markers that store the memories of the cataclysm that caused the extinction of their dinosaur ancestors.

Bird genes 'store' memories of dinosaur extinction: Here is how
