Uncertainty requires organisations that can respond to new challenges. Adaptive leadership can help create a culture of learning while giving employees the confidence they need to embrace change. In a business environment […]
Reducing the widening gap between rich and poor has become one of the defining challenges of our time. While governments are traditionally expected to address inequality through taxation and redistribution, companies also […]
Scientists at Imperial College London have discovered that astrocytes — brain cells once regarded largely as support cells — produce rhythmic chemical signals that help synchronise the brain’s master biological clock. The […]
An extraordinarily preserved fossil bird from Brazil has allowed scientists to reconstruct the brain of a bird that lived alongside the dinosaurs. The 80-million-year-old skull of Navaornis hestiae fills a crucial evolutionary […]
Oxford University has been world number one in the Times Higher Education World University Rankings since 2017 – the longest time any university has held the position in the 21 annual editions of the […]
Physicists at the University of Cambridge have experimentally created the first two-dimensional “Bose glass” — a strange state of matter in which particles become trapped rather than spreading through the system. The […]
Dark matter appears to dominate the mass of the Universe, yet nobody knows what it is. Deep beneath South Dakota, the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment has completed its most sensitive search yet — and […]
Scientists have used powerful X-ray nano-imaging to investigate fossilised microorganisms preserved in one of Earth’s most extreme environments. The fossils from Spain’s Río Tinto could help researchers recognise ancient traces of life […]
Scientists led by the University of Oxford have created extraordinarily dense beams of matter and antimatter in the laboratory. Containing around 10 trillion electron-positron pairs, these artificial “fireballs” could allow researchers to […]
Electrons are normally imagined as particles travelling through a wire. But under the right conditions they can behave collectively like a liquid — complete with microscopic whirlpools. ETH Zurich researchers have now […]
Scientists have discovered two genes that help melanoma cells change their shape as they move through different tissues. The finding reveals one of the tricks cancer uses to spread through the body […]
Scientists have discovered the oldest known fossil forest on Earth. Dating back approximately 390 million years, the ancient trees reveal how the arrival of the first forests began transforming not only life […]
Oxford scientists have observed an extraordinary effect at the atomic scale: the movement of ions can retain a “memory” of what happened moments earlier. The discovery challenges a simple assumption about how […]
