"A new deep-learning AI model may help scientists better decipher the plot of the genetic instruction book and learn how typos alter the story. AlphaGenome, created by Google DeepMind, is the latest in an ever-improving line of AI models built to analyze vast stretches of DNA. The previous front-runner, a model called Borzoi, could predict molecular signposts in stretches of DNA 500,000 bases long. AlphaGenome can analyze 1 million DNA building blocks at a time … The model may have practical implications for diagnosing rare genetic diseases, identifying cancer-driving mutations, designing synthetic DNA sequences or therapeutic RNAs, and better understanding basic biology." |

If date night feels a little too predictable, you're not alone. Comfort is great, but desire usually needs something new to chew on. That doesn't mean going extreme: It can be as simple as breaking routine, doing something slightly out of character, or introducing something made for couples who want to play again. Small risks create big sparks, and brands like We-Vibe are built for exactly that kind of low-pressure, curiosity-driven fun. [Ad] |

"We've got smart rings, smart watches, and now … smart underwear. It was developed by a team of researchers led by biologist Brantly Hall of the University of Maryland in the form of a small device equipped with electrochemical sensors that can clip directly onto your underwear. What does this device measure? Farts, of course. Or to put it in more polite, scientific terms: flatus. But why?" |

"Sperm cells have a monumental task, but their days are numbered. From the moment they're made in the testes to the time they may spend winding their way up the labyrinthine of the female reproductive tract, their internal clocks are ticking. So exactly how long do human sperm survive, in order to complete this journey?" |

Be honest: you don't actually know where your money goes. It just sort of… evaporates. Spendify turns your bank statements into an AI‑powered breakdown of what you're really funding: subscriptions, impulse buys, and that suspicious amount of takeout. Upload, analyze, adjust. No spreadsheets. No linking your bank. Just cold, hard data about your soft, chaotic spending habits — for life. [Ad] |

"In 2026, it's difficult to detangle love with tech, given the rise of dating apps and now AI. But an evolutionary biologist doesn't think it's changed the fabric of how relationships form. 'I think that these technologies are becoming more popular and more pervasive and more advanced, but they're still not at a place where they're overturning four million years of evolution in terms of our desire to form intense bonds,' said Dr. Justin Garcia, executive director of the Kinsey Institute, in an interview with Mashable." |
