1. CERN plănuieşte să construiască un accelerator de particule cu diametrul de 100 de kilometri
[Obiectivul suprem al FCC este de acela de a construi un inel accelerator de protoni supraconductor, cu o energie de până la 100 TeV, care, prin prisma mărimii sale, va fi mult mai puternic decât LHC (actualul accelerator de particule de la CERN).]

2. Nature beats nurture when it comes to causing diseases
[Nearly 40% of human diseases can be linked to genetic factors, while 25% are at least partly driven from the environment. However, socioeconomic factors only play a modest role.]

3. New science books to read
[About the paradox of human nature, our obsession with the skies, and the realities of transplant surgery.]

4. Curious Kids: how do tongues taste food?
[Your tongue has special parts that pick up flavour, bundled together as taste buds. They help you taste different flavours, like sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and a special one called “umami” which some people say is a bit like a mix of all the others put together. .
If your nose is blocked, food tastes weaker. This is because your nose also helps you “taste” food too.]
