We hope that providing gentle neuromodulation throughout each day will be able to prevent patients from falling into long-lasting depressive episodes.
British engineers are preparing to test the fuel mix that could one day power the largest nuclear fusion experiment in the world, as Nature reports.
Band names often come about in weird and wonderful ways. Black Sabbath’s Geezer Butler named the band after a Boris Karloff horror flick, while Led Zeppelin took inspiration from a prediction about how the group might fare (Keith Moon apparently said they’d go down “like a lead balloon”). And then there’s Nickelback, excitingly named after a tradition in which singer Chad Kroeger – then a Starbucks employee – would give his customers a “nickel back” in change.
Sometimes finding the inspiration that will define your band isn’t always such a natural process. Step in This Band Isn’t Real, a Twitter account that generates fake band names and fake album titles via artificial intelligence. It even generates the appropriate artwork.
A phase 1 clinical trial testing a novel vaccine approach to prevent HIV has produced promising results, IAVI and Scripps Research announced today. The vaccine showed success in stimulating production of rare immune cells needed to start the process of generating antibodies against the fast-mutating virus; the targeted response was detected in 97 percent of participants who received the vaccine.

Hi everybody. Around 10 days ago, I participated in an online conference about aging, organized by HEALES and ILA, and Harold Katcher was one of the speakers. As each speaker had only 15 minutes for their presentation (and Harold spoke only for 10 minutes because he had some technical issues with Zoom), I thought that it would be a good idea to make an interview with him so that he has more time to speak about his rejuvenation therapy with E-5, the test with dogs, the timeframe for the arrival of the therapy for humans, and, above all else, his theory of aging. So, it’s a more informal conversation, but I think it helps everybody to know more about Harold Katcher, maybe one of the most (if not the most) influent people in human history.
Harold Katcher, one of the discoverers of the human breast cancer gene and possibly the discoverer of the greatest rejuvenation therapy to date, talks to Nicolas Chernavsky about his rejuvenation therapy with E-5, his carreer and his theory of aging. 2020 paper on experiments with E-5: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.05.07.082917v1.…1.full.pdf Harold’s 2013 paper on aging: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1134/S0006297913090137 Conboy’s 2005 paper on parabiosis: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.05.07.082917v1.…ature03260 1994 paper on human breast cancer gene: https://courses.washington.edu/gs466/readings/miki.pdf Find out more about Nicolas Chernavsky and NTZ on www.ntzplural.com #rejuvenation #aging #biotechnology #health #science.

As of 2015940 million people suffer from a form of visual impairment. Today, some forms of blindness can be cured by cornea implants and other procedures. Other forms of blindness like glaucoma (where the issue is related to the optic nerve) are beyond our abilities to fix. Despite advances in bioprinting and camera miniaturization, the issue of optical connection remains when attempting to replace the human eye. So far, technological progress has largely not risen to the challenge that 2.0 poises.
