Childhood cancer is a serious issue. It's the main reason kids in the U. S. suffer from long-term illnesses leading to death. Over the past few decades, cases have increased significantly. But there's a new hope on the horizon. The U. S. government is taking action. They're using artificial intelli
Scientists have come up with a clever trick to fight cancer. They took a common bacteria, Salmonella, and tweaked its genes to make it a cancer-fighting tool. This isn't just any bacteria; it's been modified to seek out and attack tumors. The idea is to inject these smart bacteria into tumors, where
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a persistent condition that harms joints and can lead to disability. Genes are a significant factor in determining who develops RA. One particular gene, HLA-G, is crucial in managing immune responses and inflammation. Think of it as a director for the immune system, guid
Liverpool is thinking about giving Ryan Gravenberch a new contract. This makes sense because he has become a key player for the team. Even though Liverpool spent a lot of money on new players this summer, Gravenberch has stayed important. He has been playing well and helping the team win games. Gra
In a surprising find, archaeologists in Israel have uncovered a stash of ancient coins near the site of Jesus' ministry. The discovery happened at Hukok, a kibbutz in northern Israel, close to Capernaum, where Jesus is believed to have spent a lot of time. These coins, though, are much younger than
In Cincinnati, the Catholic Church is facing a serious trust issue. Four porn-related scandals have rocked the community in recent years. The latest involves Father Edward Burns, who is now on leave after some questionable websites were found on his computer. The archdiocese has handed this over to
The Copenhagen Architecture Biennial kicked off on September 18, running until October 19, with a focus on slowing down. This event, organized by CAFx, is a step up from the city's old annual festival. It's now a bigger, international stage for talking about architecture and how it shapes our world.
Pierre Jaquet-Droz was a clever watchmaker. He lived over 200 years ago. He made three amazing robots. They could write, draw, and play music. These robots were like toys. But they were also very smart. They showed how machines could do things like humans. Jaquet-Droz's robots were special. They we
Brain waves are like whispers from our minds, but they often get lost in the noise. EEG machines try to capture these whispers, but they frequently pick up static too. This static can come from bad connections, movement, or just too much background noise. Usually, scientists throw out the noisy part
Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are making waves, but they're not perfect. The current tech, which relies on EEGs, is a bit of a mystery. It's like having a puzzle with missing pieces. You see the big picture, but you're not sure how it all fits together. The main issue? EEGs pick up brain signals
