Mice Exhibit Altruistic "First-Aid" Behaviors Towards Unconscious Cage Mates
Researchers found that mice perform "first-aid" on unconscious cage mates, including sniffing, grooming, and tongue pulling, which speeds up anesthetic recovery; these actions, linked to oxytocin neurons, appear to be driven by an altruistic impulse rather than simple curiosity.

Quantum Physics Suggests Time May Not Be Unidirectional
A study published in Scientific Reports challenges the conventional understanding of time's unidirectional flow, suggesting that at the quantum level, time may flow simultaneously forward and backward; this challenges the second law of thermodynamics, and its implications are significant for our und...
