    Trump caps Gulf tour in Abu Dhabi with dizzying investment pledges

    US President Donald Trump on Friday capped off a Gulf tour in Abu Dhabi that has seen the securing of multi-billion-dollar deals, a $1.4 trillion investment pledge from the UAE, as well as historic overtures to Syria and renewed optimism over an Iran nuclear deal.

    On his first foreign tour of his second term, Trump oversaw a $200 billion order from Qatar Airways for Boeing jets and a $600 billion investment from Saudi Arabia — including nearly $142 billion in weapons, which the White House…

    US judge dismisses case against migrants caught in new military zone | Migration News

    The magistrate ruled that apprehended migrants may not have been aware they were crossing into a military zone.

    A United States judge in the southwestern state of New Mexico has dismissed trespassing charges against dozens of migrants apprehended in a military zone recently created under President Donald Trump.

    The military zone is one of two so far that the Trump administration has created along the US-Mexico border, in order to deter undocumented migration into the country.

    New gene editor enables greater precision

    Ask scientists what gene editing tool is most needed to advance gene therapy, and they’d probably describe a system that’s now close to realization in the labs of Samuel Sternberg at Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons and David Liu at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard.

    The gene editor — called evoCAST — goes a long way toward solving a problem that has confounded the development of gene therapies from the field’s beginnings: How to add long stretches of DNA…

    Study reveals a deep brain region that links the senses

    A Yale-led study shows that the senses stimulate a region of the brain that controls consciousness — a finding that might inform treatment for disorders related to attention, arousal, and more.

    Humans perceive and navigate the world around us with the help of our five senses: sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell. And while scientists have long known that these different senses activate different parts of the brain, a new Yale-led study indicates that multiple senses all stimulate a…

  • Can the brain be targeted to treat type 2 diabetes?

    Can the brain be targeted to treat type 2 diabetes?

    Successfully treating type 2 diabetes may involve focusing on brain neurons, rather than simply concentrating on obesity or insulin resistance, according to a study published today in the Journal of Clinical Investigation.

    For several years, researchers have known that hyperactivity of a subset of neurons located in the hypothalamus, called AgRP neurons, is common in mice with diabetes.

    “These neurons are playing an outsized role in hyperglycemia and type 2 diabetes,” said UW Medicine…

    Study suggests loss of lung capacity begins between the ages of 20 and 25

    A study led by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal), a centre supported by “la Caixa” Foundation, in collaboration with the Clínic-IDIBAPS, has shown for the first time, how lung capacity evolves from childhood to old age. The findings, published in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine, provide a new basic framework for assessing lung health.

    Until now, it was thought that lung function increased until it peaked at around 20-25 years of age, after which it stabilised. It was also…
