Scientists have discovered a secret connection between the orbits of Earth and Mars. Each 2.4 million years, the interaction between the two planets results in key changes to deep ocean currents. This, in turn, is linked to periods of increased solar energy and a warmer climate. For their study, the geoscientists analysed whether ocean-bottom currents become more active or slower-moving in warmer climates.

The complex of VP35 and Ubiquitin (PDB ID 3JKE) modeled using a combination of protein docking and molecular dynamics simulations. The K48 and K63 Ub residues are shown in cyan on the bottom left and C-terminal on the right within Ub. One of the strongest interactions contributing to the stability of the complex is ARG225-GLU18.

The animal is transgenic – meaning DNA from another species, in this case human, was introduced into it through genetic engineering. The research was led by Matt Wheeler, professor in the Department of Animal Sciences at the University of Illinois in the US, who says it takes advantage of the special factors of the mammary gland.

The Ministry of Education and Science published a report on its activity over its nine months in office. The results achieved include an increase in teachers' remuneration, initiating competitions for principals in 276 municipal schools, developing a vision for a standard of quality management in school and pre-school education, and starting a comprehensive change of curricula. Bulgaria is one of the first countries to develop guidelines for the use of artificial intelligence in the educational process.

elusive ‘ghost particles’ were detected by the IceCube Neutrino observatory in Antarctica, which is a detector the size of a cubic kilometre made up of ice. Tau neutrinos are tiny subatomic particles that interact very rarely with other matter, allowing them to travel astronomical distances undisturbed. Once detected, the particles can be traced back to their sources, revealing information about the conditions in which they were formed.
