Doctors in Israel have re-attached a boy’s head after he was hit by a car while riding his bike.

Twelve-year-old Palestinian Suleiman Hassan, from the West Bank, suffered an internal decapitation — where the base of the skull and the top of the spine become detached, but the skin is still intact.

Decapitation is the total separation of the head from the body. Internal decapitation occurs when sudden impact to the head causes the ligaments and muscles holding the skull in position on the top vertebrae of the spine to tear.

When people say there s no money for advanced AI research, robotics research, energy research, etc… etc… take a close look at who was rollin in money and buyin below items.

“The fraud was so easy to commit. All of the information was self-reported and none of it was verified or checked,” Haywood Talcove of LexisNexis Risk Solutions told The Post.

“During the height of the pandemic, it was really hard to purchase [luxury] items like a Rolls-Royce, or a high-end Mercedes because you had people walking in with cash from the PPP program to purchase those items for whatever the dealer was asking,” Talcove said.

Systemic lupus erythematosus is the most common form of lupus, and is an autoimmune disorder in which the body attacks its own tissues, leading to widespread inflammation. The disorder causes skin rashes, joint pain or swelling, and extreme fatigue, and tends to cycle between periods in which symptoms are milder, and flares when symptoms are far more severe. Now scientists have found that there is sometimes an increase in the number of gut bacteria called Ruminococcus blautia gnavus while lupus patients were having flares. The findings have been reported in the Annals of Rheumatic Diseases.

In this very small study, researchers compared the gut microbes from lupus patients to healthy volunteers. They determined that over a four-year period, five of the sixteen lupus patients in the study had blooms of R. gnavus while they were also experiencing a disease flare. Four of the patients that carried R. gnavus blooms also had the most severe forms of lupus.

To advance our capabilities in protein engineering, MIT CSAIL researchers came up with “FrameDiff,” a computational tool for creating new protein structures beyond what nature has produced. The machine learning approach generates “frames” that align with the inherent properties of protein structures, enabling it to construct novel proteins independently of preexisting designs, facilitating unprecedented protein structures.

“In nature, protein design is a slow-burning process that takes millions of years. Our technique aims to provide an answer to tackling human-made problems that evolve much faster than nature’s pace,” says MIT CSAIL PhD student Jason Yim, a lead author on a new paper about the work. “The aim, with respect to this new capacity of generating synthetic protein structures, opens up a myriad of enhanced capabilities, such as better binders. This means engineering proteins that can attach to other molecules more efficiently and selectively, with widespread implications related to targeted drug delivery and biotechnology, where it could result in the development of better biosensors. It could also have implications for the field of biomedicine and beyond, offering possibilities such as developing more efficient photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis is how plants and some microorganisms use sunlight to synthesize carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water.

Advances in our knowledge of the immune system are uncovering connections between and many different diseases.

Understanding how the immune system is activated and regulated is essential for anyone working to develop treatments for autoimmunity, chronic, and allergy, or to apply these treatments in the clinic.

This online course offers a unique way for professionals to learn from leading Harvard Medical School faculty about cutting-edge therapies to treat chronic and related diseases.

This process could provide a cheap, sustainable replacement for foam, timber, and plastic.

The future of the construction industry is green„ with scientists developing a way to grow building materials using knitted molds and the root network of fungi. Previous trials with similar composites have been made but the shape and growth constraints of the organic material made it difficult to develop diverse applications.

Now, a team of designers, engineers, and scientists in the Living Textiles Research Group, part of the Hub for Biotechnology in the Built Environment at Newcastle University, which is funded by Research England, have used the knitted molds as a flexible framework or ‘formwork’, creating a composite called ‘mycocrete’ which is stronger and more versatile in terms of shape and form.
