Norway will largely prevent primary school pupils from using artificial intelligence for schoolwork from the start of the next academic year. Older students will be allowed to experiment with AI gradually, provided that teachers have received sufficient training.
AI is becoming part of everyday life, but its growing energy demands are putting increasing strain on the hardware behind it, which is why researchers at the University of Cambridge are exploring a new brain-inspired device that could help future AI systems use far less electricity.
We’ve all experienced that post-workout mental clarity - that feeling of being a bit "sharper" after hitting the gym or going for a run. But what is actually happening inside our heads to cause that?
Research gives us an unprecedented look into the brain right after physical activity, and the findings might just change how you view a quick sweat session.
A brilliant star in our nearest galactic neighbor didn’t go out with a bang, it simply faded from sight, leaving scientists to piece together what could make something so massive vanish so quietly.
For decades, weight loss has often been reduced to a simple formula: eat less and move more. But as many people know from experience, body weight is far more complex than basic calorie counting.
A snack here, a ready-meal there. Ultra-processed foods are woven into everyday life, often without much thought. However, new research suggests the question is not only whether these foods contain too much sugar, salt or fat. It may also be whether the way food is processed changes its relationship with the brain.
For years, the standard advice on exercise has sounded simple: move more. But a large new study suggests that message may be missing something important.
Most of us think of sitting as one big category. Too much of it is bad, and that is the end of the story. But research suggests the picture may be more complicated than that,

A long-running study of more than 131,000 adults links moderate caffeinated coffee or tea intake with a slightly lower risk of dementia and slower cognitive decline. Here is what it found, and what it does not prove.
Most of us think of dentists when our gums are sore, not brain scans. Yet a new study hints that what’s happening along the gumline may show up deep inside the brain.
Here’s what the scientists measured, what it could mean, and how to protect yourself while we wait for more answers.
You might not now this but the simple act of chewing has a big impact on your brain health. In this article, we explore why texture and oral care matter so much.
Ever wonder why you still feel tired, irritable, or unable to concentrate, even after a full night’s sleep? Studies suggest the culprit could be your night-time exposure to artificial light—from smartphones, tablets, computers, and LED lights.
A new study shows teenagers spend over 20% of their drive time looking at their phones, despite knowing the dangers. Experts say simple steps could help keep young drivers, and everyone on the road, safer.
A recent social media trend involving taping one's mouth shut at night to prevent mouth breathing has sparked considerable debate. But according to new research, this popular sleep hack may be less effective—and more risky—than people think.
Scientists have uncovered how a tiny molecular machine called the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier unlocks the gates to our cells’ powerhouses—an energy-boosting breakthrough that could pave the way for new treatments for cancer, diabetes, and more.
New research from Brown University reveals surprising insights into why Americans at every economic level have shorter lifespans compared to Europeans.
