Thirteen biotech companies are working on new treatments for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), a progressive neurodegenerative disease with no cure. Recent advancements include the approval of tofersen, a personalized treatment for ALS, and the development of new therapies targeting various aspects of the disease. Companies like Alchemab Therapeutics, Annexon Biosciences, and Ionis Pharmaceuticals are leveraging…
Physicists have made a groundbreaking discovery that could revolutionize our understanding of the universe. Researchers have found that permanent distortions in spacetime caused by the passage of gravitational waves, known as “gravitational memory,” could be detectable from Earth. This phenomenon is predicted to occur most prominently when the core of a supernova collapses, providing a…

A new podcast series, “United by Fire,” explores the complex relationship between humans and wildfires in the United States. The series delves into the impact of climate change on fire seasons, the suppression of beneficial fires, and the risks associated with living in fire-prone areas. As wildfires continue to ravage the country, society must adapt…
A recent study by Paul Jensen, a microbial-systems biologist at the University of Michigan, has revealed that just ten bacterial species account for half of all publications, while nearly three-quarters of all named bacteria don’t have a single paper devoted to them. This bias towards a small number of model organisms has significant implications for…
The cryptocurrency mining industry is undergoing a significant shift towards environmentally friendly energy sources, with companies like KSD Miner leading the charge. This change is expected to reduce costs and increase profits for miners, making cloud mining a more attractive option for those seeking a stable passive income. KSD Miner’s innovative platform allows users to…
Mark Cuban, a well-known entrepreneur and investor, has expressed his willingness to fund a TikTok alternative built on Bluesky’s AT Protocol. This move comes as a response to the impending U.S. ban on TikTok, which is expected to take effect on Sunday. Cuban sees potential in a more open social web, powered by the AT…
Physicists at Caltech and New York University have made a groundbreaking discovery that could prove string theory to be the sole viable “theory of everything.” By unifying all fundamental forces of nature, including gravity, string theory could provide the long-sought quantum description of gravity that has eluded scientists for decades. The researchers used a novel…
