          ‘Love Hormone’ Oxytocin Could Mend a Broken Heart

          Oxytocin, a hormone connected with bonding and love, could help to heal damage following a heart attack. Researchers found oxytocin stimulates stem cells from the heart's outer layer and migrates into the middle layer where it develops into muscle cells that generate heart contractions. This could be used to promote the regeneration of heart cells following a heart attack.

          AI Matches Humans in Vocal Emotion Detection

          Machine learning (ML) models can accurately identify emotions from brief audio clips, achieving a level of accuracy comparable to humans. By analyzing nonsensical sentences to remove the influence of language and content, the study found that deep neural networks (DNNs) and a hybrid model (C-DNN) were particularly effective in recognizing emotions such as joy, anger, sadness, and fear from clips as short as 1.5 seconds.

          Ancient Ear Muscles Reactivate When We Struggle to Listen

          Humans have vestigial ear muscles that once helped our ancestors focus on sounds. New research shows these muscles still activate when we strain to hear in noisy environments. Scientists used electromyography to measure auricular muscle activity in people listening to an audiobook with distracting background noise.
