New study deconstructs Dunbar's number (number of friends) Posted: 04 May 2021 06:10 PM PDT An individual human can maintain stable social relationships with about 150 people, not more. This is the proposition known as 'Dunbar's number' - that the architecture of the human brain sets an upper limit on our social lives.

Circadian rhythm research could turn early birds into night owls Posted: 04 May 2021 08:26 AM PDT Researchers have identified a set of genes, called clock genes, that control circadian rhythms. But a more complicated gene network than previously known appears related to these rhythms. Scientists detail a statistical model they are using to help identify the genes involved in this network. With help from other disciplines, they hope to fully understand how these genes work together to make different people more productive at different times of day. |
