Individual cells in the brain light up for specific ideas. These concept neurons, once known as “Jennifer Aniston cells,” help us think, imagine and remember episodes from our lives.
Our research ecosystem isn’t built to deliver the breakthroughs needed to understand intelligence at scale. We need a dedicated research institution to take up the task.
Molecules haven’t been used in quantum computing, even though they have the potential to make the ultra-high-speed experimental technology even faster. Their rich internal structures were seen as too complicated, too delicate, too unpredictable to manage, so smaller particles have been used.
But a team of Harvard scientists has succeeded for the first time in trapping molecules to perform quantum operations. This feat was accomplished by using ultra-cold polar molecules as qubits, or the fundamental units of information that power the technology. The findings, recently published in the journal Nature, open new realms of possibility for harnessing the complexity of molecular structures for future applications.
“As a field we have been trying to do this for 20 years,” said senior co-author Kang-Kuen Ni, Theodore William Richards Professor of Chemistry and professor of physics. “And we’ve finally been able to do it.”
“ tabindex=”0” acid UDCA can regulate tumor growth in mice with liver cancer. This discovery suggests that UDCA dietary supplements could offer a fast and effective way to improve outcomes for liver cancer patients.
Immunotherapy is an advanced cancer treatment that harnesses a patient’s immune system to target and destroy tumors. It has significantly improved outcomes for various cancers, including those of the lung, kidney, and bladder. However, its effectiveness against liver cancer has been notably limited—a concerning issue given that liver cancer rates have nearly tripled over the past 40 years.

New research using climate models provides fascinating insights into how environmental conditions influenced the evolution and migration of early humans.
One study uses deep-sea sediment cores to trace the climatic factors that enabled or hindered hominin settlement in Europe, while another study explores the interbreeding opportunities between Neanderthals and Denisovans due to shifting climates. These findings not only enhance our understanding of human history but also underscore the impact of long-term climatic changes on human habitats and interactions.

The jet winds are moving at nearly six times the speed of the exoplanet’s rotation.
The farthest planet from the Sun, Neptune, is the windiest place in the solar system, with winds that whip through at speeds reaching more than 0.3 miles per second (0.5 kilometers per second). That’s a relatively pleasant wind speed compared to a giant, puffy planet located around 500 lightyears away from Earth.
Supersonic winds on this exoplanet, designated WASP-127b, travel at a mind-bending 5.5 miles per second (9 kilometers per second). The speed of sound on Earth is roughly 0.21 miles per second (0.34 km/sec), making these winds supersonic by our terrestrial standards. The recently discovered extraterrestrial jet stream is the fastest ever measured on a planet, providing new insight into extreme weather that pummel other worlds.
