New study finds evidence of hepatitis C virus in cells lining human brain
Observational studies of psychiatric diseases such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depression have long tied viral infections with behavioral symptoms in these disorders, but scientists have been unable to find direct evidence of suspected viruses in the brain. Experts say that's possibly because viruses may not get directly inside the brain, but may target the brain lining instead.

HENDERSON COUNTY, North Carolina Once again, I found myself staring at a crack in a large rock on the side of a mountain. It was June, and rainy, and I was searching for a glossy amphibian called the Hickory Nut Gorge green salamander.

Sponge hunting: How some dolphins protect their noses while foraging
Sponge hunting: How some dolphins protect their noses while foraging
Some dolphins in Australia use sponges on their noses to hunt fish, a skill passed down through generations. Research published Tuesday reveals that this technique involves using sponges to protect their noses while stirring up fish from the seafloor. But the sponges interfere with the dolphins' echolocation, making the skill challenging to master. Only about 5% of the studied population, or 30 dolphins, use this method. Scientists say it's an efficient but rare hunting strategy, learned over years and passed only from mother to calf. The findings highlight the complexity of dolphin behavior and appear in the journal Royal Society Open Science.
