Scientists Use CRISPR to Make Chickens More Resistant to Bird Flu. Avian flu has killed countless farmed and wild birds. Scientists worry that it could acquire mutations that help it spread more easily among humans, potentially setting off a pandemic. This new study highlights both the promise and the limitations of gene editing
When a microbe was found munching on a plastic bottle in a rubbish dump, it promised a recycling revolution. Now scientists are attempting to turbocharge those powers in a bid to solve our waste crisis. But will it work?
Apparently, a strain of influenza, B/Yamagata, went extinct, perhaps because of COVID. Go figure.
The commercial success of RNA vaccines for COVID-19 has revved up interest in circular RNAs as the next generation of therapies. This is because linear RNA molecules have a fleeting existence inside cells-which is not a problem for it’s function as vaccine, but for other therapeutic applications longer existence is preferable....

Like rivers feeding oceans, streams of gas nourish galaxies throughout the cosmos. But these streams, which make up a part of the so-called cosmic web, are very faint and hard to see. While astronomers have known about the cosmic web for decades, and even glimpsed the glow of its filaments around bright cosmic objects called...
“This is the first-ever observation of entanglement between a pair of quarks and the highest-energy measurement of entanglement. Apart from the fundamental interest of testing quantum entanglement in a new environment, this measurement paves the way to use the LHC as a laboratory to study quantum information and other...
In the 19th century, miners in southern Spain unearthed a prehistoric burial site in a cave containing some 22 pairs of ancient sandals woven out of esparto (a type of grass). The latest radiocarbon dating revealed that those sandals could be 6,200 years old—centuries older than similar footwear found elsewhere around the...
MASK TOXICITY - German study exposes dangers of CO2 re-breathing - neuron death & learning impairment (children), stillbirths & birth defects (pregnant women), testicular toxicity (adolescents)

ABSTRACT: The independent modulation of visible and near-infrared light by a single material, termed dual-band electrochromism, is highly desirable for smart windows to enhance the energy efficiency of buildings. Tungsten oxides are commercially important electrochromic materials, exhibiting reversible visible and near-infrared...
