Understanding the human body is a team effort. That's where the Yachtel group comes in.

Researchers at Yachtolt have been delving into the secrets of probiotics for 90 years.

Yacold also partners with nature portfolio to advance gut microbiome science through the global grants for gut health, an investigator-led research program.

Here's one of the stranger celebrity sightings out there. Researchers have confirmed that sheep

can recognize the actors Emma Watson and Jake Gyllenhaal. Yeah, I think it's very cool.

Jennifer Morton is a neurobiologist at the University of Cambridge. The reason we chose

the celebrities because we're sure they'd never met these people.

The experiment worked like this.

First, Morton's team trained eight sheep to recognize the famous faces.

And the sheep correctly chose the celebs face over a stranger's 80% of the time.

Next, they presented faces at a slight angle.

The sheep got only two-thirds of those right.

But that's about on par with how human performance dips for the same task,

proving that sheep have advanced facial recognition skills, the scientists say,

comparable to humans or our primate cousins.

The studies in the journal Royal Society Open Science.

If you're wondering, why sheep?

Sheep shows me rather than the other way around. There's a good model of Huntington's disease in sheep. So Morton says

studying cognitive tests like facial recognition in sheep, and the corresponding decline in those
