A new study published in AGU's journal suggests oxygen-deprived underwater zones, often called 'dead zones', may not be biologically barren.

President Trump and a group of chief executives are working to reframe artificial intelligence's public image, Axios reports.

A new book titled Peaceful Exit argues that planning for the end of one's life should be seen as an act of love rather than a morbid task. The book encourages readers to prepare advance directives, hospice decisions and personal wishes ahead of time, so families are spared difficult choices later.
