Doctors Reveal Surge Behind ‘Silent Killer’ in Gen Z and Millenials and One Way to Reduce the Risk

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, health, neuroscience

Young people don’t worry about their health the same way older individuals do. Of course, many Gen Zers and Millenials do prioritize their physical and mental wellbeing. But they are young, while the risk of life-changing conditions like heart disease, diabetes, chronic pain, and cancer increases with age. However, research shows that Gen Z and Millenials are not as safe as once thought. The number of cases of colon cancer has doubled in the United States since the 1990s. Especially in the age 20 to 49 demographic.

Colon cancer is also known as colorectal cancer, bowel cancer, or rectal cancer — depending on where the tumor begins. It’s also called the silent killer because there may be few or zero warning signs. And once the symptoms finally appear, the cancer has already progressed.

Stunning images have revealed miles of undersea tunnels connecting a set of islands halfway between Scotland and Iceland.

The Faroe Islands have built 17 tunnels on land and four subsea-including the world’s only underwater roundabout – to deal with its unpredictable weather.

EXCLUSIVERevealed: The little-known cancer that’s surged by 85% in young people…and one alarming reason why

Posted by in category: biotech/medical

Gallbladder cancer is the latest form of the disease discovered to be rising in people under 50 — alongside bowel, breast and lung.

Data from charity Cancer Research UK (CRUK) show an 84 per cent rise in cases of the gastrointestinal cancer among Brits aged 24–49 since the early 90s.

While a significant increase in cases of the disease has been seen in Brits of all ages, younger adults have seen the largest rise of any age group.

Trillium sixth-generation TPU is in preview

Posted by in categories: innovation, robotics/AI

The rise of generative AI has ushered in an era of unprecedented innovation, demanding increasingly complex and more powerful AI models. These advanced models necessitate high-performance infrastructure capable of efficiently scaling AI training, tuning, and inferencing workloads while optimizing for both system performance and cost effectiveness.

Google Cloud has been pioneering AI infrastructure for over a decade, culminating in a unified architecture called AI Hypercomputer that seamlessly integrates workload-optimized hardware (TPUs, GPUs, and CPUs), open software, and flexible consumption models to power the most advanced AI models. This holistic approach optimizes every layer of the stack for optimal scale, performance, and efficiency across the broadest range of models and applications. AI Hypercomputer is one of the many reasons why Google Cloud was named a leader in Forrester’s AI Infrastructure Wave. Just last week, Google Cloud was also named a Leader in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Strategic Cloud Platform Services, where for the second consecutive year, we are the only Leader to improve on both vision and ability to execute.

Singapore’s AQSolotl Introduces CHRONOS-Q: A Quantum Controller for Use in Integrating Classical and Quantum Computers

Posted by in categories: computing, quantum physics

In a pioneering move for quantum technology, Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and the National University of Singapore (NUS) have launched AQSolotl, a deep-tech startup presenting CHRONOS-Q —a state-of-the-art quantum controller designed to integrate classical computing systems with quantum computers. This innovation positions Singapore at the forefront of the global quantum ecosystem, with wide-ranging applications across industries.

CHRONOS-Q tackles the complexity of controlling quantum computers by acting as a translator between classical and quantum systems. It enables efficient control via standard computing devices, features an intuitive interface, and significantly reduces operational barriers, paving the way for broader adoption. Its modular, compact design ensures scalability and suitability for diverse environments, from research labs to mobile quantum setups.

With groundbreaking speed—determining qubit states in under 14 nanoseconds—and customizable firmware, CHRONOS-Q promises cost-effective, future-proof solutions for academia and industry. The startup’s founders, including Professor Rainer Dumke from NTU and CEO Patrick Bore, emphasize the transformative potential of accessible quantum computing for solving global challenges.
