A Phase 3 trial turned the walls of a surgical cavity into the radiation treatment.

A small scheduling change produced a surprisingly large clinical difference.

A painless test using urine and a vaginal swab showed it could accurately rule out womb cancer for most women with postmenopausal bleeding.

New York City planted its most trees in a decade and prioritized neighborhoods where extreme heat hits hardest.

A Cambridge-led study gave nicotinamide riboside to eight people with mitochondrial DNA disease. It was well tolerated and showed early signs of working.
THE MEADOW GREW BACK.
Ten traditional chain moorings were replaced with eco-moorings that move with the tide instead of scraping circles through the seabed. Five years later, the damaged patches had shrunk by an average 93.6%.

In a mouse model of multiple sclerosis, the experimental drug K-9 restored function after paralysis and vision loss had already set in. It has not been tested in people with MS.

In the TESEO trial, 450 adults received different benznidazole regimens. The 30-day, once-daily option matched the standard 60-day course in the trial and caused fewer side effects.
THE LINE HELD.
When flash flooding hit New Richland, Minnesota, players from the New Richland-Hartland-Ellendale-Geneva football team helped with a pontoon rescue instead of watching from the bank.
THE SCAN CAME BACK EMPTY.

THE HAND FELT BACK.
Seventeen years after an amputation, Alexander “Avi” Davidson became the first participant to take Utah's thought-controlled bionic arm home — with a nerve interface that gives it a sense of touch.
NOBODY REINTRODUCED IT.
Mongabay reports a giant anteater turned up in an Argentine reserve on its own, decades after the species vanished locally — a case for letting recovering habitat do the work.
TWO ORIGINS. ONE BRAIN.
Stanford researchers found the forebrain/midbrain and hindbrain arise from distinct progenitor cell populations — and used that insight to grow functional human hindbrain motor neurons in the lab.
THE GENOME GOT A BIGGER TOOLBOX.
A new lab method can place gene-sized DNA at targeted sites in human cells. No patients yet.
THE SPACE UNDER THE PANELS GOT BUSY.
Panels up. Wildflowers in. Insects followed.
LAB BENCH HOPE.
42 antibodies made. Two blocked the reaction. In a dish, for now.
DONE BY HAND.
Ten days, wooden dams, no machinery. Pools are already forming.
DAMS OUT. SALMON IN.
Four dams gone. 21,052 adult Chinook counted upstream across two seasons. Eighty-eight percent of their documented historic range reoccupied — early, and encouraging.
STAGE 1 AND 2, CAUGHT ABOUT 87% OF THE TIME
An investigational blood test flagged stage 1 and 2 pancreatic cancer about 87% of the time in a study of roughly 1,800 people. Not FDA-cleared. Still a big deal.
800 VILLAGERS. 350,000 OBSERVATIONS.
About 800 villagers across nine Borneo villages get paid for verified photos, video and audio of wildlife. Two villages have since banned hunting themselves.
