Adding milk to an optical imaging system can help recover details obscured by a thin layer of biological tissue, researchers have found, in an experiment that used a slice of mouse brain to test a new way of reducing image noise.
People grieving the loss of a loved one need less ready-made advice and more attentive presence, experts who have studied bereavement say. Even with the support of loved ones, loneliness during grief can be excruciating and long-lasting.

A model of the brain’s visual cortex suggests how neural activity can remain highly variable without making perception unstable. Researchers found that mechanisms resembling excitation, inhibition and slower self-regulation can prevent tiny differences in initial brain activity from producing radically different outcomes.
A Polish company is developing a spectrometer designed to identify areas of the Moon richest in raw materials. The instrument is being built under a European Space Agency (ESA) contract.
