The way food is cooked may be one key to understanding aging and disease.
Chemicals called advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) are garnering more attention from scientists intent on finding ways to reverse the diabetes epidemic. AGEs occur in low amounts naturally in the body, but they also come from food.
The most popular methods of cooking today — grilling, baking, and frying — release more AGEs, and AGEs lead to more inflammation, disease, and aging. According to studies, reduce the amount of AGEs in your food can improve insulin resistance in type 2 diabetics in just a few months.

A supermassive black hole discovered by University of Texas researchers ranks among the largest ever observed.
The enormous black hole is located in NGC 1277, a small, lenticular galaxy 250 million light years from Earth in the constellation Perseus, Space.com reports.
The black hole’s event horizon — the “point of no return” within which nothing can escape — has a diameter 11 times greater than Neptune’s orbit around the Sun, according to a written statement issued by the university’s McDonald Observatory in Austin.

Much has been made of the so-called 2012 Mayan apocalypse. But for the real Maya people, the end of the world came slowly and timed with historic droughts.
A new, ultra-detailed climate record from a cave in Belize reveals Classic Maya civilization collapsed over centuries as rain dried up, disrupting agriculture and causing instability that led to wars and the crumbling of large cities. A final major drought after the political collapse of the Maya may be what kept the civilization from bouncing back.

SAN FRANCISCO — Ötzi the Iceman, an astonishingly well-preserved Neolithic mummy found in the Italian Alps in 1991, was a native of Italian Alps, not a first-generation émigré from Sardinia, new research shows. And genetically, he looked a lot like other Stone Age farmers throughout Europe.
The new findings, reported Thursday (Nov. 8) here at the American Society of Human Genetics conference, support the theory that farmers, and not just the technology of farming, spread during prehistoric times from the Middle East all the way to Finland.

A tiny fraction of carbon helps account for the oddly light density of Earth’s iron core, a new computer simulation finds.
Though the core is only 0.1 percent to 0.8 percent carbon, the iron ball is the largest reservoir of carbon on the planet, the study authors said.
An impenetrable 1,790 miles (2,890 kilometers) below the planet’s surface, the core is a compelling mystery. The density of pure iron is heavier than the core’s observed density, which is calculated from seismic and laboratory studies.

With the number of people being diagnosed with HIV falling, AIDS could one day be eradicated, experts claim.
A report from the United Nations said this was thanks to better access to drugs that can both treat and prevent the incurable human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) that causes AIDS.
This meant the aim of ending the AIDS epidemic was not ‘merely visionary’ but ‘entirely feasible.’
- At 2.5 million, the number of new infections in 2011 was 20 per cent lower than in 2001
- Deaths from AIDS also fell to 1.7 million in 2011, down from a peak of 2.3 million in 2005

Connecting a human brain to a computer is as much a materials science problem as a biology one. What kind of interface is delicate enough not to damage nerve tissue, but resilient enough to last decades?
Researchers have come up with what they call a “stealthy neural interface” made from a single carbon fiber and coated with chemicals to make it resistant to proteins in the brain.

MURCHISON, Australia (Reuters) – In the remote Australian outback, scientists have launched the world’s fastest radio telescope which will exponentially increase astronomers’ ability to survey the universe, mapping black holes and shedding new light on the origins of galaxies.

STOCKHOLM — Guessing who will win a Nobel Prize is a bit like forecasting the stock market: Experts don’t seem to do it any better than laymen.
So if you hear professors and pundits predicting the “God particle” will be the theme of the physics prize next week, or that an American writer – finally – is due for the literature award, check their track record.
