"Autisten können sich schlecht selbst darstellen und auch nicht gut verkaufen. Außerdem haben sie massive Probleme mit sozialer Interaktion und Kommunikation.. Die meisten Autisten sind extrem gut in analytischem und logischem Denken."

Dr Simon Archer and his team at Surrey University were particularly interested in looking at the genes that were switched on or off in our volunteers by changes in the amount that we had made them sleep. "We found that overall there were around 500 genes that were affected," Archer explained. "Some which were going up, and some which were going down." What they discovered is that when the volunteers cut back from seven-and-a-half to six-and-a-half hours' sleep a night, genes that are associated with processes like inflammation, immune response and response to stress became more active. The team also saw increases in the activity of genes associated with diabetes and risk of cancer. The reverse happened when the volunteers added an hour of sleep. So the clear message from this experiment was that if you are getting less than seven hours' sleep a night and can alter your sleep habits, even just a little bit, it could make you healthier

Three Harvard scholars trained in chemistry and physics pursue innovative approaches and tools that address problems in neuroscience.

Astronomers have found a new way to search for high-energy cosmic rays, the most energetic particles in the universe, by scanning the face of the Moon.

People should not be afraid of dark energy. Remember that the problem with the cosmological constant isn't that it's mysterious and ill-motivated - it's that it's too small! The naive theoretical prediction is larger than what's required by observation by a factor of 10^120. That's a puzzle, no doubt, but setting it equal to zero doesn't make the puzzle go away - then it's smaller than the theoretical prediction by a factor of infinity.

Neuroscientists explore the mind's sexual side and discover that desire is not quite what we thought it was.

Powerful vashikaran mantra for husband is like a blessing for a married life. Married life is incomplete without husband and wife. Both are equal part of this

Henry the schnoodle just did a remarkable thing. Understanding a pointed finger may seem easy, but consider this: while humans and canines can do it naturally, no other known species in the animal kingdom can. Consider too all the mental work that goes into figuring out what a pointed finger means: paying close attention to a person, recognizing that a gesture reflects a thought, that another animal can even have a thought.
