Sue Vincent, 69, from Solihull, said the drug enabled her to see her five grandchildren born – and led to her being awarded an MBE A woman described as “living proof” of the success of a new drug treating inherited cancer is “delighted” it has been approved for wider NHS use.
Upon analysis, researchers found the phototherapy treatments significantly improved MMSE scores in participants with dementia.
The second focus of the study was to see how phototherapy interventions affected the behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSDs) — such as depression and agitation — and sleep. The researchers stated there were no significant differences in BPSDs and sleep between the phototherapy and control groups.

Mice that received gut microbes from children with epilepsy on the ketogenic diet were protected from seizures. The finding suggests the microbiome is behind the diet’s seizure-reducing effect.

Scientists have identified a new circuit element known as a meminductor. A circuit element is an electrical component used to help direct and control the flow of electricity through an electrical circuit. The classical three are known as the resistor, capacitor and inductor. Two additional circuit elements, the memristor and the memcapacitor, were only discovered in the past 15 years.
The court claimed that after posing a number of inquiries to the AI chatbot, it was pleased with the responses received.
A municipal court in Pakistan has announced its judgment using artificial intelligence technology, a first for the Asian country.
The case was processed by ChatGPT-4, OpenAI’s cutting-edge AI chatbot, before the local judge announced the decision, Samaa reported on Wednesday.
The company is offering rewards ‘for exceptional discoveries’.
OpenAI, the creator of conversational chatbot ChatGPT, has announced a Bug Bounty program where users can report “vulnerabilities, bugs, or security flaws” and be financially rewarded for finding them. The company has announced rewards ranging from $200 to $20,000 depending on the severity of the flaw and teamed up with a popular bug-finding platform to streamline the process.
OpenAI’s ChatGPT has ushered in a race for artificial intelligence (AI) models that provide comprehensive solutions to user queries and can even simulate intriguing imagery with the help of a few text prompts.

While the technology is advancing at a breathtaking pace and producing some mind-boggling results, there are also concerns about these products’ safety. AI researchers like Stuart Russell have warned that unchecked, the rise of AI could result in a Chernobyl-like incident for the tech industry.
It’s not unusual for a company to try and innovate on an existing products or technology, but robotics firm Flexiv promises that its massaging robot won’t be like the mechanical massagers of the past.
Robotic or mechanical messagers are hardly a new idea, but a robotics firm called Flexiv is hoping that its new robot masseuse will succeed where others have succeeded at becoming a novelty at best and an embarrassing disaster at worst.
Announced earlier this week on its website, Flexiv is debuting its Rizon 4 robot which has been developed to enable a fully automatic massage experience.
To analyze the human player’s brain, the team designed a cap with over 100 electrodes mounted on a backpack-sized device.

This study by the University of Florida scientists provides intriguing insights into human brain activity. The findings revealed that human players’ brains reacted differently to opponents (other humans and ball machines). And playing against a robotic opponent was much more difficult for the human brain.
The mystery of ultra-luminous X-ray sources (ULXs) and their astonishing brightness has been partially unraveled through a recent study utilizing NASA’s NuSTAR.
Scientists have long been perplexed by ultra-luminous X-ray sources (ULXs), cosmic objects that emit about 10 million times more energy than the Sun and appear to break the Eddington limit — a physical boundary that determines the maximum brightness of an object based on its mass. In a groundbreaking study published in The Astrophysical Journal, researchers have confirmed that these extraordinary light emitters surpass the Eddington limit, potentially due to their strong magnetic fields.
The effect of Eddington limit and magnetic fields
The Eddington limit plays a crucial role in determining the balance between the outward push of photons and the inward pull of an object’s gravity. When an object reaches the Eddington limit, its light pushes away any gas or material falling toward it, thus controlling its brightness. The study focused on the ULX M82 X-2, a neutron star that was found to be stealing about 9 billion trillion tons of material from a neighboring star annually. The researchers’ calculations confirmed that M82 X-2 exceeds the Eddington limit.
The new study supports an alternative hypothesis that suggests strong magnetic fields can distort atoms into elongated shapes, reducing the photons’ ability to push atoms away and ultimately increasing an object’s maximum brightness. By examining more ULXs, scientists may be able to further understand the role of magnetic fields in their extraordinary luminosity.
