But from a research perspective, we will never be fully able to prove that a non-human animal is dreaming. Like even in humans, the only evidence for dreams are basically dream reporting ...

Since the early 2000s, scientists have been building OpenSim—a freely available, virtual model of the human body, complete with all its bones, muscles and tendons. In 2019 a group of Belgian ...

The two species began burying their dead at roughly the same time and place. Now some archaeologists think competition may have played a role in burials. Decades ago, Neanderthal burials at ...

But what if the answer lies not in political data or campaign strategies, but in the instincts of a primitive part of the human brain? New research I conducted with rhesus macaque monkeys suggests ...
