It is the topic that has occupied the minds of poets and philosophers since time immemorial: love. With Shakespeare famously writing: “The course of true love never did run smooth.”

Were joined now by dr katherinejoy, a professor in earth and environmental sciences at manchester university. thank you so much forjoining us and talking us through this. how significant is this particular mission? there seems to be loads of space launches recently.— space launches recently. there is a lot auoin space launches recently. there is a lot going on _ space launches recently. there is a lot going on in _ space launches recently. there is a lot going on in the _ space launches recent...

A team of neuroscientists at the Champalimaud Foundation has shed light on the brain’s “internal clock” by manipulating the temperature of a specific brain region. This study paves the way for a deeper understanding not only of time perception, but also of how our brains process and coordinate actions.

Understand. take a deck of cards that you would have, for example. when we talk about a 1 in 100-year flood, it basically means the cumulative risk over a 30-year period is 26%. that would be your odds, statistical odds of drawing any heart from the deck. 2 of hearts, 10 of hearts, jack of hearts. it doesnt matter. 1 in 500-year flood event is grabbing two hearts in a deck. 1 in 1 though you-year flood, the cumulative risk over 30 years is 3%. that is like pulling a red ace from the deck of card...

Study shows how our brains sync hearing with vision News To make sense of complex environments, brain waves constantly adapt, compensating for drastically different sound and vision processing speeds Every high-school physics student learns that sound and light travel at very different speeds. If the brain did not account for this difference, it would be much harder for us to tell where sounds came from, and how they are related to what we see. Instead, the brain allows us to make better sense ...

To make sense of complex environments, brain waves constantly adapt, compensating for drastically different sound and vision processing speeds, researchers report. Every high-school physics student learns that sound and light travel at very different speeds. If the brain did not account for this difference, it would be much harder for us to tell where sounds came from, and how they are related to what we see. Instead, the brain allows us to make better sense of our world by playing tricks, so t...

 E-Mail Every high-school physics student learns that sound and light travel at very different speeds. If the brain did not account for this difference, it would be much harder for us to tell where sounds came from, and how they are related to what we see. Instead, the brain allows us to make better sense of our world by playing tricks, so that a visual and a sound created at the same time are perceived as synchronous, even though they reach the brain and are processed by neural circuits at d...

Or behaviors could you potentially address using games like this? >> i think its incredibly broad the different type of brain systems that youll be able to improve. our center over here really focuses on attention processes. how we direct our limited resources where and when we want them and we know when these abilities decline, you see all sorts of conditions arise. adhd to depression, autism, even things like alzheimers. >> adam and his team build video games from scratch with some pretty loft...

Eventually thursday night into friday, all the way to southern california. very heavy rain. very heavy mountain snow, and really this is nothing but good news. it does bring the risk of flooding. were going on see a little bit too much rain, too quickly. well see some flooding. we have the threat for mudslides, but california is dealing with a drought like weve never seen, and the only way to alleviate that is to get a lot of rain systems here during the rain where i season, which is beginning n...
