For years, scientists believed that fear helps the brain distinguish more clearly between threatening and harmless experiences. However, a study led by researchers at the Douglas Research Centre at McGill University and the University of Toronto-Scarborough challenges that assumption. The findings, published in Nature Neuroscience, suggest that fear may have the opposite effect.

One month into the attempted rebrand of “AI,” the term is not catching on. But it’s sure to muddy our national conversation about AI anyway.
The drug, known as KCL-286, produced encouraging results in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease. Unlike treatments that focus primarily on the buildup of toxic proteins in the brain, this approach targets additional processes that can begin long before the disease reaches its advanced stages.

Neutrino research has played a remarkable role in modern physics. Discoveries involving these particles have contributed to five Nobel Prizes in Physics. This year, physicist Francis Halzen received the prestigious award "for decisive contributions to the IceCube Neutrino Observatory and the discovery of high-energy neutrinos of astrophysical origin."
The top reason analytics agents produce substandard insights is a lack of business context, prompting investment in semantic layers and governance, rather than bigger models.
