Cosmic rays from a nearby supernova may help explain Earth-like planets

How common are Earth-like planets in the universe? When I started working on supernova explosions, I never imagined that my research would eventually lead me to ask a question about the origin of Earth-like planets. Yet that is exactly where it brought me.

For decades, planetary scientists have believed that the early solar system was enriched with short-lived radioactive elements—such as aluminum-26—by a nearby supernova. These radioactive elements played a crucial role in forming water-depleted rocky planets such as Earth. Their decay heated young planetesimals, causing them to lose much of their originally accreted water and other volatile materials.

There was just one problem that kept bothering me.

A key Alzheimer’s gene emerges in African American brain study

Scientists studying Alzheimer’s in African Americans have uncovered a striking genetic clue that may cut across racial lines. In brain tissue from more than 200 donors, the gene ADAMTS2 was significantly more active in people with Alzheimer’s than in those without it. Even more surprising, this same gene topped the list in an independent study of White individuals. The discovery hints at a common biological pathway behind Alzheimer’s and opens the door to new treatment strategies.

Bacteria reveal second ‘shutdown mode’ for surviving antibiotic treatment

A new study reveals that bacteria can survive antibiotic treatment through two fundamentally different “shutdown modes,” not just the classic idea of dormancy. The paper is published in the journal Science Advances.

The researchers show that some cells enter a regulated, protective growth arrest, a controlled dormant state that shields them from antibiotics, while others survive in a disrupted, dysregulated growth arrest, a malfunctioning state marked by vulnerabilities, especially impaired cell membrane stability. This distinction is important because antibiotic persistence is a major cause of treatment failure and relapsing infections even when bacteria are not genetically resistant, and it has remained scientifically confusing for years, with studies reporting conflicting results.

By demonstrating that persistence can come from two distinct biological states, the work helps explain those contradictions and provides a practical path forward: different persister types may require different treatment strategies, making it possible to design more effective therapies that prevent infections from coming back.

One pull of a string is all it takes to deploy these complex structures

MIT researchers have developed a new method for designing 3D structures that can be transformed from a flat configuration into their curved, fully formed shape with only a single pull of a string.

The technique could enable the rapid deployment of a temporary field hospital at the site of a disaster such as a devastating tsunami—a situation where quick medical action is essential to save lives.

The researchers’ approach converts a user-specified 3D structure into a flat shape composed of interconnected tiles. The algorithm uses a two-step method to find the path with minimal friction for a string that can be tightened to smoothly actuate the structure.

Neurologists’ Expertise Drives Significant Downstream Revenue in Health Care Systems

A new Medicare study reveals that neurologists generate substantially more downstream revenue when treating common neurologic conditions than non-neurologists, mainly because neurologists use more in-depth diagnostics and treatment strategies.

Neurologists generate significantly greater downstream revenue while treating common neurologic diseases than non-neurologist physicians, underscoring their clinical and financial importance to health systems, an analysis shows.

The report, published in October in Neurology Clinical Practice, revealed that neurologist-led care generated up to 519 percent more downstream revenue than non-neurologists did, adding approximately $180 million to downstream revenue totals. For autoimmune neuromuscular diseases alone, neurologist-led care generated $58.7 million in downstream revenue compared to $9.5 million from non-neurologists. This increased revenue, experts note, translates to better outcomes for patients with neurologic conditions.
