    Groundbreaking scientific research with lasting impact is on the rise. That’s the conclusion of a new study, which found that the share of papers that are “persistently disruptive”—a new metric the authors developed—rose about fivefold from 1900 to 2019. The results add nuance to the narrative, advanced in several previous studies, that innovativeness has declined across many scientific fields because researchers are increasingly reliant on narrow existing knowledge within their subdisciplines.

    For more than a century, scientists thought leprosy was an Old World disease with a single culprit. The bacterium Mycobacterium leprae had ravaged Europe, Asia, and Africa for thousands of years and was introduced to the Americas by European colonists and enslaved people from Africa about 500 years ago.

    In a time of great anxiety over U.S. government support for science, theoretical physicists have received some reassuring news. Larry Leinweber, a philanthropist who made his fortune in the software industry, is giving $90 million to establish endowed institutes in theoretical physics at three leading research universities and one private institution, the Leinweber Foundation announced today. The money will be used mainly to support postdocs and graduate students.
