Physicists are quietly advancing a radical idea: time might not be a single, thin line but a full three‑dimensional landscape ...

Real-world adverse events are rarely monocausal. They emerge from the interaction of drug exposure, comorbid conditions, physiological states, concomitant medications, and patient-specific ...

Understanding the brain's functional architecture is a fundamental challenge in neuroscience. The connections between neurons ultimately dictate how information is processed, transmitted, stored, and ...

Classical (as opposed to quantum) physics rests on the assumption that all physical quantities have well-defined values simultaneously. Relativity is based on clear-cut physical statements: the speed ...

Causality is key to our experience of reality: dropping a glass, for example, causes it to smash, so it can’t smash before it’s dropped. But in the quantum world those rules don’t necessarily apply, ...

Quantum mechanics wreaks even more havoc with conventional ideas of causality than some have suspected – according to a team of researchers based in Australia, with collaborators in Scotland and ...
