Under the bright lights of a Delhi operating theatre, a woman lies still as surgeons prepare to remove her gallbladder. She sleeps under general anaesthesia, her body paralysed and her mind unconscious. Yet soft flute music flows through headphones resting over her ears. Even as anaesthetic drugs quiet most of her brain, her auditory pathways remain active. When she awakens, she recovers faster and clearer because she required lower doses of propofol and opioid painkillers than patients who heard no music. Researchers from Maulana Azad Medical College and Lok Nayak Hospital show that music can reduce drug use and improve…

A Weekend Filled With Frustration Lewis Hamilton voices deep disappointment after a challenging race weekend in Las Vegas. The seven-time world champion starts last after a slow qualifying session.
