In nature generally the larger the brain the smarter the creature. Well now, new research suggests that the brains of domestic dogs are getting larger, but scientists are sort of baffled as to why.

A team of researchers has unveiled a cutting-edge Amphibious Robotic Dog capable of roving across both land and water with remarkable efficiency.

Why do cats generally live longer than dogs? New research suggests that longer lifespans of mammals like cats could be linked ...

Brain researchers have identified a bridge between the thalamus and the cortex as the key area that is modified during motor learning functions. They found that such learning does much more than ...
