Boeing’s Loyal Wingman prototype combat drone reached a new milestone as two of the autonomous aircraft took to the skies recently in separate flights over the Woomera Range Complex in Australia. This marks the first time that the second drone has flow… Continue reading Second Loyal Wingman combat drone takes to the air for the first time
Pfizer’s experimental antiviral pill, developed to inhibit the replication of SARS-CoV-2 and prevent severe COVID-19, has shown extraordinary efficacy in the first data from a large Phase 2/3 clinical trial. The results, yet to be published in a peer-r… Continue reading Pfizer’s COVID-19 pill cuts hospitalization or death by nearly 90%
Fatty liver disease is a condition linked to obesity and diabetes, and in turn often leads to further major complications. Researchers at the University of Southern California (USC) have now found a way to reverse the progression of the disease in mice… Continue reading Experimental therapy reverses obesity-induced liver damage in mice
Last year, DeepMind produced a stunning advance in scientific research, demonstrating how its artificial intelligence could be used to predict 3D structures of unique proteins in a solution to a 50-year science problem. This has moved parent company Al… Continue reading Alphabet lets AI take the lead role in new drug discovery startup
Tesla threw a big, clanky wrench into the pickup camper industry machine when it introduced the Cybertruck. In an instant, the world’s hottest pickup truck was entirely incompatible with every traditional camper product out there, from basic shells to … Continue reading Expandable camper pod turns Cybertruck or F-150 into a micro-RV
Scientists investigating a root cause of leukemia have made a key discovery around how genetic mutations can cause blood stem cells to go rogue, forming dangerous populations of cloned cells that can go on to become cancerous. The team’s experiments on zebrafish not only shed new light on how these cells protect themselves as they rapidly multiply, but reveal new targets for scientists looking to halt blood cancer in its early stages.
