Scientists in China have developed a new chemical mixture that allows brain tissues to function again after freezing. The solution, made from methylcellulose, ethylene glycol, and other components, protects brain cells from damage during freezing and thawing. As a result, organoids retain their functions and structure even after 18 months of freezing and, overall, develop…

A study by scientists from Germany and the United Kingdom could alter the treatment paradigm for certain hereditary diseases. Preclinical experiments have demonstrated a link between gut bacteria and genetic pathologies of the retina, which can lead to blindness. It was found that antibacterial therapy successfully addresses tissue damage, but now these results have led…
A team of Chinese scientists has built the world’s largest quantum simulator based on the principle of an ion trap and demonstrated the stable retention and cooling of a two-dimensional crystal consisting of 512 ions. This breakthrough was achieved by the team led by renowned quantum physicist Duan Luming, who returned to his homeland in…
Recently, Pixar’s Chief Creative Officer Pete Docter gave an interview to Bloomberg, where he shared the studio’s future plans.
