Since its launch last year, schools worldwide have struggled with students using the popular artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot ChatGPT amid cheating concerns. The boom of artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots prompted one teacher in Denmark to incorporate it into the classroom rather than block it. https://youtu.be/ZXCQnkJAQK4?si=QnMyGGUr8-ZWQX4e

Commented on The Nobel Prize Winners 2023
Researchers from Stanford University and the University of Waterloo, Canada, analyzed data from prize winners from 1950 to 2009. The results were compared with data from winners of the Lasker Award, which is another prestigious award in the field of medicine. The scientists compared the two awards to confirm that age does not significantly impact performance after receiving the awards. Nobel Prize winners are usually awarded later in their careers when less work would be expected. https://www.sciencealert.com/winning-the-nobel-prize-may-bestow-an-unfortunate-side-effect

Commented on Climate Change & Global Warming
This is worrying! As the Earth's temperature continues to rise, virologist Jean-Michel Claverie's research reveals the emergence of ancient viruses, some dating back nearly 50,000 years, from thawing Siberian permafrost. These dormant pathogens, awakened by climate change, pose a potential threat to public health as they resurface. Claverie's findings highlight the need for vigilance and further research to understand and mitigate the risks associated with these ancient viruses, which could have disastrous effects if they infect humans or other organisms. https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/new-updates/zombie-viruses-may-awaken-by-2030-after-50000-years-of-dormancy-due-to-global-warming-research/articleshow/104339783.cms

Commented on The Nobel Prize Winners 2023
The 2023 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman for their discoveries concerning nucleoside base modifications that enabled the development of effective mRNA vaccines against COVID-19. Through their groundbreaking findings, which have fundamentally changed our understanding of how mRNA interacts with our immune system, the laureates contributed to the unprecedented rate of vaccine development during one of the greatest threats to human health in modern times. https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/medicine/2023/advanced-information/

Commented on Evidence Based Public Health
Researchers at the University of Exeter have shown for the first time that antibiotics can actually benefit bacteria and protect them from death. In research funded by EPSRC and published in PNAS, the team found that certain antibiotics can alleviate stress and help prevent the decline of bacterial populations when they are dying out. This means more bacteria survive for longer compared to untreated populations. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20230925/Antibiotics-can-sometimes-benefit-bacteria.aspx
