  1. ICYMI: When quantum computers are ready to take on large-scale multiplication, there will be an algorithm waiting.

  2. ICYMI: By tracking the light from far-off quasars and scouring maps of the Big Bang’s afterglow, researchers were at last able to bring an end to the decades-long hunt for the universe’s missing matter.

  3. ICYMI: Researchers uncover statistical problems in earlier attempts to disentangle the effects of “nature” and “nurture” in complex traits.

  4. ICYMI: “In this ‘solidified’ state, a cell can survive starvation.” —Vasily Zaburdaev, biophysicist, Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems

  5. ICYMI: Hemoglobin, the pigment that binds to oxygen in red cells, is the critical working ingredient of our blood. But it’s also toxic, and many characteristics of our blood evolved to control the dangers it poses.

  6. ICYMI: Major forests can push “flying rivers” of water vapor into the air. Researchers are only beginning to grasp the hard-to-predict effects of that moisture on weather and climate thousands of miles away.

  7. In biology, the chicken-and-egg problem has been solved by Darwin’s theory of evolution, a feat so momentous that it has been called “the single best idea anyone ever had.”

  8. Noted researcher Leslie Vosshall () talks with “The Joy of x” host about the neuroscience of odors: “I’m still one day going to write a book called ‘There Are No Bad Smells.’ Every smell is great.”

  9. Rogue waves were sailor lore until a 26-meter-tall monster struck a Norwegian oil platform in 1995. Now researchers have created a unified theory of rogue waves.

  10. ICYMI: The massive populations of marine viruses that reside in our oceans are 12-fold more diverse than previously believed.

  11. ICYMI: The Planet Nine hypothesis predicts a new class of distant objects in the solar system. The first of those objects has just been discovered.

  13. From the archives: A large new study of ovenbird lineages questions the extent to which competing species push each other to evolve.

  14. ICYMI: In molecular biologist Nathan Goehring’s simulations of cell division, cells lost the ability to divide unevenly below a minimum size. When he noticed that this threshold was the size of certain cells in embryos, he found a clue to development.

  16. Did the universe have a beginning and can we ever know the fundamental laws of nature, or is it turtles all the way down? This month, our puzzle examines how science makes sense of infinite regress.

  17. ICYMI: The evolution of reversed genital structures in cave-dwelling insects from Brazil and Namibia has challenged preconceived notions about sex and sex roles.

    Poništi
  18. ICYMI: The blueprints are being drafted for a new theory of how computers learn.

  19. “Mosquitoes are hungry for people. What if we feed them human diet drugs? Can we turn off that hunger? Can we trick them into feeling like ... they already have filled up on our blood?” — Leslie Vosshall, neuroscientist, on “The Joy of x”

  20. Batchelor’s law predicts universal behaviors arise within turbulent systems. Despite the name, it’s never been mathematically proven. Until now.
