Episode 244 Published 3 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
Scientists have discovered how to transform crystals into reversible diodes by twisting them at the nanoscale, opening the door to three-dimensional shape-engineered electronics. Solar Orbiter reveals how magnetic avalanches trigger massive solar flares, while neuroscientists find our brains process language remarkably similar to AI models like GPT. Stanford researchers unveil a treatment that reverses cartilage loss and prevents arthritis, and new findings explain why your attention lapses when sleep-deprived—your brain is literally doing its cleanup cycle while you're awake. Plus: cancer immunotherapy that repairs aging guts, microscopic worms that weaponize static electricity, and a planet caught losing its atmosphere in real-time.
