There’s an odd twist to human physiology not seen in any other primate 0 that makes giving birth more complicated for our species. Now, a study using biomechanical modelling on gait and posture has provided some insights into this long-standing mystery.

The narrow shape of the human birth canal is kinked at the inlet, so that contractions of the mother must rotate the baby’s big brain and wide shoulders nearly 90 degrees to fit into the pelvis.

To figure out how to populate Mars, you need to have the mind of Einstein, the wit of Louis CK and…

How is this explained?

The eggs of these two condors must have been fertilized on their own without the involvement of sperm. Is such a thing even possible? Scientists do think it is possible and this strange process is called Parthenogenesis.

A new startup is selling super-realistic digital humans powered by AI to fill positions in sales, customer support, healthcare, education and more.

The future of Neuromorphic computing and nanotechnology enabling real life Nanosuits is already here according to several leading scientists in that field. Whether it’s the Nanosuit from Iron Man or from Crysis, the nanobots and brain computer interfaces which make those intelligent smart clothes up work in a very similar way.

Neuromorphic computing essentially involves assembling artificial neurons to function based on the principles of the human brain. It works on Spiking Neural Networks or SNNs, where each “neuron” sends independent signals to other neurons. It emulates natural neural networks that exist in biological brains.

Would you rather pay six figures for a flying motorcycle than a high-end supercar? It’s a bet that at least one Japanese company makes.

A.L.I. Technologies have just unveiled a new full-fledged hoverbike to persuade drivers to ditch their expensive four-wheelers in favor of the latest “icon of air mobility.” The XTurismo, a limited edition, went on sale earlier this week.

Isaac Nape, an emerging South African talent in the study of quantum optics, is part of a crack team of Wits physicists who led an international study that revealed the hidden structures of quantum entangled states. The study was published in the renowned scientific journal, Nature Communications.

Nape is pursuing his PhD at Wits University and focuses on harnessing structured patterns of light for high dimensional information encoding and decoding for use in quantum communication.

Earlier this year he scooped up two awards at the South African Institute of Physics (SAIP) conference to add to his growing collection of accolades in the field of optics and photonics. He won the award for ‘Best PhD oral presentation in applied physics’, and jointly won the award for ‘Best PhD oral presentation in photonics’.

Child-size vaccine doses are already being distributed in US and shots may begin as early as Wednesday.

Yuval Noah Harari is one of the world’s most famous public intellectuals, historians and writers. He is probably most famous for his book ‘Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind’. (Subscribe: https://bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)

His most recent book, ‘Sapiens: A Graphic History, Volume 2: The Pillars of Civilization’ has just been published and offers a different way of telling the story of humankind for a younger audience.
