Description
Today's episode explores revolutionary medical breakthroughs including the discovery of a molecular switch that could transform obesity treatment and MIT's engineered immune cells that can destroy cancer while staying hidden from the body's defenses. We also dive into a 242-million-year-old fossil that's rewriting reptile evolution, evidence of a devastating ancient tsunami from an asteroid impact, and the disturbing real-time footage of toxic proteins drilling holes in brain cells. Plus, quantum physicists have built a working 'lie detector' that proves large quantum systems truly operate by different rules than classical computers.
