MIT physicists discover surprising twist in Milky Way’s core

Posted by in categories: cosmology, physics

MIT physicists have discovered a surprising twist in the Milky Way’s rotation curve that challenges our understanding of dark matter. By tracking the speed of stars across the galaxy, they’ve uncovered a potential deficit of dark matter at the galactic core.

Traditionally, astronomers believed that dark matter was responsible for the galaxy’s rotation. Still, the new analysis raises the possibility that the Milky Way’s gravitational center may be lighter in mass than previously thought.

Joint US-China gene therapy trials restore hearing in 5 kids, a first

Posted by in category: biotech/medical

The findings revealed that out of six children subjected to the gene therapy, five exhibited restored hearing and enhanced speech recognition.


Furthermore, the remaining incidents were ephemeral and had no lasting impact, showing that the detected adverse effects were just short and did not raise long-term issues.

“We are the first to initiate the clinical trial of OTOF gene therapy. It is thrilling that our team translated the work from basic research in animal model of DFNB9 to hearing restoration in children with DFNB9,” said Yilai Shu, lead study author from the Eye & ENT Hospital of Fudan University, in a press release.
