It has been shown in previous studies that newborn babies are able to recognize a "face-like" stimulus, indicating a baby is able to recognize a face very quickly. Here's a new study that seems to indicate the babies are able to do in utero as well. This would mean that the ability to recognize faces is built into the human brain.

A recent study published in Cell describes a new brain stimulation technique that requires no surgical implants, even for regions of the brain towards the centre. Tests were successful in mice, and the researchers are now pursuing testing in humans. If successful, this could mean a revolution in neuroscience.

A group of scientists have discovered what causes fungi to glow in the dark. It turns out that it is a very similar process to what fireflies and angler fish use. Another case of convergent evolution, the idea that unrelated organisms can evolve to have similar characteristics.

Recluse Spiders Have an Interesting Way of Spinning their Web

The recluse spider has a very different way of spinning its web. Arachnologists (yes... that's a real profession) from Chile have taken high speed videos of the recluse spider spinning its web to reveal that the spider can create the web entirely automatically, without the help of its legs or having to attach the web to something and pull. Check out the videos attached to the article, they're weird and awesome.
