Public research university in Stony Brook, New York, part of the SUNY system, known for strong programs in sciences and engineering.
Stony Brook researchers rebuilt the first nearly complete caenagnathid skull and infer from its jaw that the 12-kilogram animal mashed soft fruit. The diet is inferred from one species, so it does not yet cover the wider toothless group.

Researchers describing Tamirkhan balcarceli in Nature place zhelestids, long argued to be early placental relatives, among shrew-like zalambdalestoids. The Gobi skeleton suggests teeth alone misled the group's classification for nearly 40 years.
Reality
The Bat1K consortium's Nature paper samples every one of the 21 recognised bat families and dates the group to roughly 65 million years ago, with the geography resting on where 44 fossil bats were found.

ZBeats' second FDA clearance this year moves ZBPro Diagnostic out of Holter-only labeling and into 14-day patch recordings. Adoption now turns on which recorders the software is cleared to read.

Two detection studies put machine-written text across large slices of Amazon's self-published shelf, and the sales figures underneath one of them show a market that grew in dollars while thinning out per title.

Brookhaven says its Quantum Lighthouse is the first permanent free-space optical link on the network. The 13-mile air hop is running; the 30-mile crossing to Yale is still pending.
Reality
The open-air hop carried entangled pairs only at night, and each end needed a purpose-built rooftop terminal. What it buys is wavelengths that telecom fiber does not serve.
Reality
Two tick-borne viruses with at least seven US deaths between them are moving with the lone star tick, and diagnosis depends on a hospital deciding to ship blood to a specialised lab.

A Science paper from RHIC's STAR detector backs a 1996 proposal that a Y-shaped gluon junction carries baryon number. The collider stopped running in early 2026, so the dataset is closed.
Reality
Brookhaven's STAR collaboration reports in Science that baryon number rides on a Y-shaped gluon junction. The one-third-per-quark picture in the textbooks would have to go.
