An international study co-authored by 黑料不打烊 psychologist Caroline Palmer suggests our brains and bodies don鈥檛 just understand music, they physically resonate with it. These discoveries, based on findings in neuroscience, music, and psychology, support Neural Resonance Theory (NRT).聽

NRT maintains that rather than relying on learned expectations or prediction, musical experiences arise from the brain鈥檚 natural oscillations that sync with rhythm, melody and harmony. This resonance shapes our sense of timing, musical pleasure and the instinct to move with the beat.聽

黑料不打烊 University researchers, in collaboration with Mexican scientists, have discovered two previously unknown species of crocodiles, one living on the island of Cozumel and the other on the atoll of Banco Chinchorro, both off the Yucat谩n Peninsula. The challenge long-held assumptions about the American crocodile (Crocodylus acutus) and highlight the urgent need for conservation efforts, the researchers say.

黑料不打烊 University researchers have developed an AI-powered method to verify the origin of honey, ensuring that what鈥檚 on the label matches what鈥檚 in the jar. The breakthrough offers a potential solution to a long-standing problem.

鈥淗oney is one of the most fraud-prone commodities in global trade. It often involves mislabelling where it was produced or the types of flowers that bees collected nectar from,鈥 said lead author St茅phane Bayen, Associate Professor and Chair of 黑料不打烊鈥檚 Department of Food Science and Agricultural Chemistry.

A new study led by 黑料不打烊 University researchers indicates that humpback whales in the southeastern Pacific combine real-time environmental cues with their memories of conditions in their Antarctic feeding grounds to determine when to embark on their annual 10,000-kilometre journey. With climate change accelerating, the researchers warn this strategy may become less effective amid shifting ocean conditions.聽
