As with weeds in a garden, it is a challenge to fully get rid of cancer cells (opens in new tab) in the body once they arise. They have a relentless need to continuously expand, even when they are significantly cut back by therapy or surgery. Even a few cancer cells can give rise to new colonies that will eventually outgrow their borders and deplete their local resources. They also tend to wander into places where they are not welcome, creating metastatic colonies at distant sites that can be even more difficult to detect and eliminate.One explanation for why cancer cells can…

One of the pretty consistent staples of a cozy mystery is that the amateur sleuth also has a day job. By that, I mean their detective work is pretty much a hobby. It’s not even a side hustle, since they don’t get paid after they solve the mysteries. Which is a bit disheartening if you think about it. I mean, here they are, risking their lives and helping the lead detective out. They sometimes even do all the work for them and no one can cut them a check? Sorry, I got sidetracked there. Now for the most part, these…

Every year more than 600,000 people die from mosquito-transmitted malaria, most of them children under age five. Some insects that are disease vectors, such as mosquitoes, are currently expanding their range around the world, bringing new threats. Genetic engineering can fix this by permanently altering insect genes through what is known as a gene drive. This technology allows a chosen set of genes to alter an animal’s biology in some way, such as making them produce sterile offspring. The inability to reproduce then sweeps through a population, upending the laws of inheritance. The genes copy themselves exponentially from generation to…

Late last summer, the official email notifying me of my library’s temporary closure for renovations found me capital-D Devastated. Around this time last year, I sat in the breakfast nook pondering the magic of libraries and, more specifically, my deep appreciation for my local branch with the pink camellias outside. There, I browsed and borrowed The Best We Could Do by Thi Bui, Luster by Raven Leilani, and Prelude to Bruise by Saeed Jones. I didn’t bear the news well…at first. While vacationing,…
An artificial-intelligence (AI) chatbot can write such convincing fake research-paper abstracts that scientists are often unable to spot them, according to a preprint posted on the bioRxiv server in late December1. Researchers are divided over the implications for science. “I am very worried,” says Sandra Wachter, who studies technology and regulation at the University of Oxford, UK, and was not involved in the research. “If we’re now in a situation where the experts are not able to determine what’s true or not, we lose the middleman that we desperately need to guide us through complicated topics,” she adds. The chatbot,…
The past is a tricky thing to unlock effectively, and Night Court Season 1 Episode 1 swings that door wide open, transporting us back to the familiar setting of the Manhattan Municipal Courthouse with gleeful abandon. Sure, the judge is new to the job, and the clerk, bailiff, and prosecutor are new to us, but the authenticity of recreating the set home to Judge Harry Stone and his compatriots for nine laugh-tracked seasons is impressive and appreciated by those of us who grew up watching that courtroom. And while the premiere only gives us a taste of the personalities at…
Rosdiana Ciaravolo One makeup product that every beauty lover’s collection should have is a handy dandy liquid lipstick. The finishes vary, from satin to glossy to matte, but we really want a formula that stays put through our lunch meals, coffee runs, dinner convos, and even kissing (NYE is coming up!). However, nailing down the right formula is no easy feat. Matte versions can be super drying, glossy finishes can leave behind evidence, and satin lipsticks can smudge and fade throughout the day. Word of advice? Look for formulas with skin-loving ingredients. “One of the most important things to look…

Chastain lives to see another day, and these characters we’ve grown to love over this series are in such a bright place. The beauty of The Resident Season 6 Episode 13 is that if this is the end, if, for whatever reason, we never get another season or episode from this series that stole our hearts six years ago, then the finale managed to provide some form of closure while allowing the possibility of more. By the second half of the hour, as things wound down, the tone was so hopeful and inspiring that it was hard not to walk…
It’s been seven years since journalists first revealed Exxon Mobil Corp.’s decadeslong efforts to undermine the scientific certainty around climate change, despite knowing how serious a problem it was. Now, a new analysis demonstrates exactly how much the company knew — and how its public disinformation campaigns sabotaged the warnings of its own scientists. Exxon wasn’t just aware of the greenhouse effect. It had its own teams of scientists developing models to project the effects of carbon emissions on the global climate. And those models, it turns out, were highly accurate. “We have our scientists do good science, but we…

Archaeologists have unearthed the “world’s oldest runestone,” a squat block of sandstone with etchings scribbled across its flat surface.The ancient stone, which archaeologists unearthed in Norway, could contain the earliest example of “words recorded in writing in Scandinavia.” They made the find in late 2021 while excavating a gravesite in Tyrifjorden, a town west of Oslo. Radiocarbon dating of items collected at the site, including charred bones and charcoal, determined that the runestone was likely carved sometime between A.D. 1 and 250, according to a statement (opens in new tab). Measuring 12.2 by 12.6 inches (31 by 32 centimeters), the runestone…

But in the right hands, liberica can be a revelation. In 2016 Davis visited some coffee farmers in Uganda and tried a brew of their local beans. The taste surprised him.

They were impressed too, and saw the potential for a high-yielding, tasty bean that could grow across a relatively wide range of locations. “We are talking about people who are doing this for profit, not for passion. If it’s not commercial then they’re not going to…
