What is the Marburg virus? WHO confirms outbreak of the deadly viral disease in Equatorial Guinea and Tanzania

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, health

The World Health Organization confirmed an outbreak of the virus in Equatorial Guinea and Tanzania earlier this year. Authorities first issued a warning for Equatorial Guinea in February following a series of deaths in early January. The Ministry of Health of Tanzania then announced its own outbreak in late March.

There have been 14 confirmed cases in Equatorial Guinea since the epidemic began, with 10 of those patients dying, according to the CDC An outbreak among a group of fisherman in Tanzania produced eight confirmed cases of the viral fever, five of which were fatal, the CDC said.

The CDC on Thursday warned doctors to watch for possible imported cases and patients exhibiting symptoms that include fever, fatigue, and blood-strained vomit and diarrhea. There have not been any reported cases of Marburg virus thus far in the US and the CDC said the risk of imported cases is relatively low.

How a worm’s embryonic cells change its development potential

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, genetics

Researchers have spotted how specific proteins within the chromosomes of roundworms enable their offspring to produce specialized cells generations later, a startling finding that upends classical thinking that hereditary information for cell differentiation is mostly ingrained within DNA and other genetic factors.

The Johns Hopkins University team reports for the first time the mechanisms by which a protein known as H3 controls when and how worm embryos produce both highly specific cells and , cells that can turn certain genes on and off to produce varying kinds of body tissue. The details are published today in Science Advances.

The new research could shed light on how mutations associated with these proteins influence various diseases. In children and young adults, for example, histone H3 is closely associated with various cancers.

Researchers Discover Critical Remote Code Execution Flaw in vm2 Sandbox Library

Posted by in category: security

The maintainers of the vm2 JavaScript sandbox module have shipped a patch to address a critical flaw that could be abused to break out of security boundaries and execute arbitrary shellcode.

The flaw, which affects all versions, including and prior to 3.9.14, was reported by researchers from South Korea-based KAIST WSP Lab on April 6, 2023, prompting vm2 to release a fix with version 3.9.15 on Friday.

“A threat actor can bypass the sandbox protections to gain remote code execution rights on the host running the sandbox,” vm2 disclosed in an advisory.

How an AI drawing program shook the art world in the 1970s

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

In 1971, artist Harold Cohen (1928 – 2016) became a visiting scholar at Stanford’s Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. There, he created a computer program called Aaron to answer the question, “What are the minimum conditions under which a set of marks functions as an image?”

The first iteration of Aaron generated abstract drawings. Later iterations in the 1980s drew rocks, plants, people, and other animals. Cohen’s program was one of the first examples of how AI could be used in creative fields like art.
