🔬 A Record Surgery, A Cosmic Clock Near a Black Hole & Cancer's Hidden Escape Route

Episode 275 Published 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
An 11-year-old just survived a once-unthinkable 16-hour surgery at Children's Hospital Colorado — the first of its kind at the hospital. Scientists have uncovered two separate molecular tricks cancer cells use to hide from the immune system and survive treatment, with pancreatic cancer at the center of one major discovery. A mysterious signal detected near the Milky Way's supermassive black hole could let physicists test the limits of gravity like never before. Early detection research is rewriting disease timelines, with Parkinson's biomarkers appearing in blood before brain damage begins and multiple sclerosis potentially starting more than a decade before symptoms show. Plus, a potential quantum computing holy grail may have just been identified — and it could change everything about how we build and power next-generation machines.
