Authors describe 2 cases of likely iatrogenic cerebral amyloid angiopathy after cadaveric dura mater use for cardiac surgery during infancy. Both are remarkable for their early age at onset, lack of genetic risk factor, and demonstration of brain amyloidosis.
To alert on the risk of interhuman transmission of β-amyloid (Aβ) pathology leading to cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) after non-neurosurgical procedures, here cardiovascular procedures, using cadaveric dura mater (DM) patches.
The Subaru Telescope observed the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS on January 7, 2026, after it made its closest approach to the sun. By observing colors in the coma around the comet, astronomers could estimate the ratio of carbon dioxide to water. This ratio is much lower than that inferred from earlier observations by space telescopes. These findings suggest that the chemistry of the coma is evolving over time and offers clues to the structure of comet 3I/ATLAS. The work appears in The Astronomical Journal.
Comet 3I/ATLAS (C/2025 N1) has garnered much attention as a comet which originated outside of the solar system. A research group led by Yoshiharu Shinnaka of the Koyama Space Science Institute, Kyoto Sangyo University, used the Subaru Telescope to observe comet 3I/ATLAS after perihelion, the comet’s closest approach to the sun. The team applied analytical methods and expertise accumulated through investigations of solar system comets to the data.
From this analysis, the team was able to estimate the ratio of carbon dioxide (CO2) to water (H2O) in the coma, the cloud of gas around the nucleus of the comet. Because the gas in the coma comes from the nucleus, the coma composition provides hints to the composition of the nucleus.
Can AI really be moral — or does it just produce moral-sounding answers? Wendell Wallach, co-author of Moral Machines, joins me to discuss machine ethics, moral motivation, AI governance, and why controlling AI may not be enough.

Millions of neurons branch throughout our bodies, keeping them in close communication with our brains. This peripheral network begins to take shape long before birth, as the cells of a growing embryo move into position and adopt their specialized roles. This crucial stage of human development can’t be monitored directly, but by examining genetic clues that linger in adult cells, scientists have now gained surprising insights into the developmental origins of the peripheral nervous system.
Researchers led by Xiaoxu Yang, Ph.D., at University of Utah Health, and Keng Ioi Vong, Ph.D., and Joseph Gleeson, M.D., at the University of California San Diego, have discovered that within the first few weeks of development, some of an embryo’s cells have already been selected to take on particular roles in the peripheral nervous system. Their findings, recently reported in the journal Nature, overturn longstanding assumptions in biology.
Their discovery could change the way scientists think about treatments for a variety of childhood diseases that begin in the cells of the peripheral nervous system.

Multiple myeloma is the second most common blood cancer in adults. It starts in the white blood cells that are responsible for creating antibodies that help the body fight infections. Once the myeloma cells begin to multiply, it makes it harder for the blood cells to function properly. There are effective treatments for multiple myeloma, including immunotherapies that can significantly extend survival; however, in some, the cancer cells become treatment resistant.
A University of Calgary study led by members of the Arnie Charbonneau Cancer Institute, published in Nature Medicine, takes a closer look at why patients often relapse after immunotherapy by studying how the myeloma cells adapt to treatment. By understanding how the cancer builds resistance, future treatments can be designed to take this into account with the goal of preventing another relapse.
“Multiple myeloma tumor cells are highly adaptable under therapeutic pressure,” says Dr. Holly Lee, MD, Ph.D., a clinical assistant professor at the Cumming School of Medicine and first author on the study. “A treatment could be incredibly effective, bringing disease bulk down from about 100% to about 1% to 2% but all it took was that one to two percent of the cells that were left to adapt and cause this relapse in patients.”
ForSight Robotics said it has completed what it described as the world’s first fully robot-assisted cataract surgery in a human patient, using its proprietary JASPER platform in a procedure the company says could mark a major step toward expanding access to eye surgery worldwide.
The Israel-based surgical robotics company said the operation was performed by Dr. Alexey Rapoport, with Dr. Robert Edward T. Ang of the Asian Eye Institute in Manila serving as principal investigator.
According to the company, the procedure was the first cataract surgery in a human patient to be completed from start to finish with robotic assistance and without the use of general anesthesia, which it said aligns with the standard practice for modern cataract procedures. The company said earlier ophthalmic robotic procedures had been limited to partial tasks during cataract surgery and had been performed under general anesthesia.
Supermassive black holes are among the most enigmatic objects in the universe. They typically weigh millions or even billions of times the mass of the sun and sit at the centers of most large galaxies. At the heart of the Milky Way lies Sagittarius A*, our galaxy’s supermassive black hole, with a mass of about four million suns. But these black holes do not emit light, so astronomers can only detect them indirectly through their effects on nearby stars and gas.
In a study published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, Eric Coughlin, assistant professor of physics in Syracuse University’s College of Arts and Sciences, and colleagues clarify what happens when a star wanders too close to one of these black holes and is torn apart.
