[:es]Your expectations shape and quicken your perceptions. A new model that explains the effect suggests it’s time to update theories about sensory processing. [:]

[:es]The stunning emergence of a new type of superconductivity with the mere twist of a carbon sheet has left physicists giddy, and its discoverer nearly overwhelmed. [:]

[:es]Promising efforts at disentangling the effects of genes and the environment on complicated traits may have been confounded by statistical problems. [:]

[:es]Researchers are beginning to understand the ways in which viruses strategically manipulate and cooperate with one another. [:]

[:es]New studies revise ideas about the symbiosis that gave mitochondria to cells and about whether the last common ancestor of all eukaryotes was one cell or many. [:]

[:es]In a world seemingly filled with chaos, physicists have discovered new forms of synchronization and are learning how to predict and control them.[:]

[:es]These games combine quantum entanglement, infinity and impossible-to-calculate winning probabilities. But if researchers can crack them, they’ll reveal deep mathematical secrets.[:]

[:es]Neuroscience has found that gestures are not merely important as tools of expression but as guides of cognition and perception.[:]

[:es]One of the first quantum simulators has produced a puzzling phenomenon: a row of atoms that repeatedly pops back into place. Physicists have been racing to explain what might be […]
