Science fiction has already flirted with an idea as disturbing as it is fascinating: the possibility of sharing thoughts and emotions. For example, in X-Men , Professor Charles Xavier uses his ” Cerebro ” machine to detect mutants all over the planet and speak to them telepathically. And in Avatar , the Na’vi connect with Eywa (something similar to a collective consciousness) through […] … learn more→

A team of researchers has just generated the perception of a new color they’ve dubbed “olo,” which apparently has never been seen before.

Big tech companies and their billionaire owners have assumed the role of puppeteers on the digital stage, orchestrating the global narrative and often deciding who has a voice […] … learn more→

Few realities of scientific advancement have excited our novelistic minds as much as the possibility of de-extinctating species . The option of bringing back to our present-day world the grandeur and spectacle of animals whose impressive fossils in museums give us goosebumps has been a dream many of us have had since childhood. So much so that writers have […] … learn more→

It recently announced the birth of pups with key traits of dire wolves, an iconic predator […] … learn more→

For scientists, accessing what others publish is essential for research progress. Similarly, publishing our research results in high-impact scientific journals is a priority in our careers, especially in the early stages of our professional development . Publishing in these journals contributes to increasing our academic prestige, based on the visibility and impact of our publications. But, above […] … learn more→

I take the bus and find that my seat has already been reserved. Good! I get off at the fourth stop and enter a large hypermarket. Right at the entrance, in a carefully arranged basket, are the avocados and tomatoes that I buy every week, the juices that I like the most and my usual […] … learn more→
