Neanderthal DNA found in some modern humans appears to amplify muscle-growth signals in cells, suggesting ancient biology may still be influencing our bodies today. Researchers have pinpointed a hidden nerve network near the bladder that deliberately triggers UTI symptoms to flush out bacteria — reframing a miserable experience as an elegant defense mechanism. A ghostly signal of antineutrinos continues radiating from nuclear reactors even after shutdown, a discovery with major implications for global nonproliferation monitoring.
