A big sum at the start of retirement is only part of the story. What matters most is how much you pull from it each year. If you take out about 3 % of a $1 million pot, it can survive more than five decades. But if you lean toward 5 %, the risk of outliving it rises sharply. Early retirees face a l
A recent study from several hospitals across Japan looked at how two different kinds of PET scanners perform when used for breast imaging. The first type is a “ring‑shaped” machine that surrounds the patient, while the second uses an “opposite‑type” design that places detectors on opposite sides. Re
GLP‑1 drugs, known for helping people lose weight, are now being tested as a pre‑surgery aid for patients with abdominal hernias. Obesity is a major hurdle for surgeons because it raises the chance of hernia problems and makes recovery harder. Researchers are exploring whether giving these med

A new idea keeps artificial intelligence safe even when quantum computers arrive. It blends two modern security tools: post‑quantum cryptography, which stays strong against quantum attacks, and zero trust architecture, where no device or user is automatically trusted. The designers use a branc
