Best-selling author Dave Eggers has a new novel out this week, telling the story of two art-obsessed friends over many decades. There's much more to the author's own story as well. Senior arts correspondent Jeffrey Brown reports from San Francisco for our arts and culture series, CANVAS.

A significant investment is helping protect the men and women of the Wilson County Sheriff's Office. 

This move follows Anthropic's June announcement of its own IPO plans.

Solar power is surging in Europe, saving consumers billions on their utility bills just so far this year alone. The post Solar Energy Saves Europeans $135 Million A Day appeared first on CleanTechnica.

The 6.5-minute, 2,240-foot ride will take passengers more than 100 feet in elevation and reach speeds of 50 mph.

A collaboration of scientists from NASA and Brazilian research institutions has produced a detailed picture of groundwater change across Brazil. The images reveal significant declines in some of the aquifers that are critical to one of the world's largest agricultural producers.

University of Maine researchers have published new findings about how muscles form, why certain muscle diseases develop and why symptoms may not appear until years after muscle degeneration begins.

San Francisco-based OpenAI files confidentially for IPO, signaling a major public debut as the AI company invests billions in infrastructure.

Strong southerly winds will help draw heat and humidity all the way up to New England, said the FOX Forecast Center.

Researchers from the University of Cambridge and GlitterinTech, a startup founded by the same research group, have unveiled a fundamentally new type of optical spectrometer that delivers laboratory-grade precision in a device small enough to be embedded in portable and wearable technologies. By rethinking how spectra are measured and processed, the team has demonstrated a spectrometer costing only around $10, operating at a centimeter scale, and capable of applications ranging from industrial quality control to real-time health care monitoring.

New research tracks how cells prepare gene regulatory decisions that will define their fate during the earliest stages of human development. The study reconstructs a timeline of chromosome folding that brings remote DNA regulatory regions into physical contact with genes they control. This work, from a team at the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) and Imperial College London, with collaborators from the Babraham Institute in Cambridge, shows that some of these contacts form long before genes are activated, persist through later development and may help preselect the future gene targets of these regions. These findings highlight how the genome's 3D structure helps shape cell identity and could offer clues to how developmental disorders arise.
