Psychoanalysis often highlights the contributions of well-known figures like Bion and Winnicott, but one theorist’s work quietly shaped their biggest ideas. Marion Milner introduced concepts that later became central to how these analysts understood therapy. While Bion and Winnicott get most of the
Research shows that when young people see smoking in movies or shows, it can make smoking seem more appealing. But what happens when a well-known actor lights up on screen? Does it matter more than the way they act while they smoke? Scientists wanted to find out if celebrity status and emotional rea
Around the world, people are living longer. This means more older adults need quality care. Nurses are on the front lines of this challenge. But how do they really feel about working with elderly patients? A recent study looked at nurses' attitudes in a major hospital. It explored how they treat ol

Research shows happiness isn’t one big moment but many small daily choices. Two habits keep showing up across cultures: kindness and movement. Kindness works like a happiness multiplier. A study had people from almost 30 countries try one week of small kind acts—helping friends, strangers, even the
The government wants to update how federal science money is managed, claiming it will cut waste and follow current policies better. These changes could let agencies stop funding projects anytime they feel the research no longer fits their latest priorities—even if the team did nothing wrong. That’s
Researchers found a surprising way to train AI: by making it play Battleship. While today’s AI excels at answering questions, it struggles with asking the right ones—a critical skill for solving complex problems. Scientists at MIT and Harvard tested this by creating a version of Battleship where AI
A writer who once mapped out distant galaxies and alien worlds now steps into a shadowy hallway of 1970s Moscow. This move from outer space to Cold War streets is more than a genre flip—it's a deliberate shift from futuristic battles to real-life tension. Instead of starships and laser guns, this ne
