- 1Three supermassive black holes found in single distant galaxy●Posting cool # space # facts until the Atlas Rush # Kickstarter : Three's company: Astronomers at the Max Planck Institu
Astronomers at the Max Planck Institute have discovered three actively feeding supermassive black holes inside a single galaxy located more than 12.5 billion light-years away. Two of the three are on a collision course, separated by just 620 light-years. The finding sheds light on how supermassive black holes grow and merge in the early universe.
- 2MPFI researchers reveal how brain circuits rewire when vision begins▼MPFI researchers uncover new insights into circuit rewiring following the onset of visual experience
Researchers at the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience have published findings on how neural circuits reorganise after the onset of visual experience. The work, announced via EurekAlert, offers new insight into how the developing brain adapts its wiring in response to sensory input, a process relevant to understanding developmental neuroscience and plasticity.
