Earlier this year, the White House proposed a nearly 24% cut to NASA's 2026 fiscal year budget — the largest in the agency's history. The trims are largely aimed at the NASA's fundamental science research and would halt science that has already been partially paid for, like the Mars sample return and the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. Many scientists and policy experts are also worried that the reduced funding would cause a scientific brain drain. But within the last month, Congress has started

Andrew Tatham, MD, MBA, FRCOphth, FEBO, CertLRS, recaps his article, “A Cilioscleral Interpositioning Device,” which was featured in the March/April issue of Glaucoma Today and explores a novel class of glaucoma surgery that targets the supraciliary space. The Intercil Uveal Spacer from Ciliatech represents this new class of surgical implants known as cilioscleral interpositioning devices, or CIDs, which enhance uveoscleral outflow to lower IOP.

Today on Optimind, host Alara Onur sits down with Baran Bilgin to unpack the power of Linear Programming (LP) a foundational tool in industrial engineering used to optimize everything from production schedules to transportation logistics. Together, they explore how LP simplifies complex decisions by turning real-world constraints into solvable equations. Whether you’re allocating resources or planning a supply chain, learn why linear programming is the quiet engine behind efficiency in modern

Mushroom diseases can be a huge problem, costing growers time and money. But what if mushroom growers could spot these diseases super early, almost instantly and without the need of constant inspections? New research shows that cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence (AI) can do just that. This means healthier crops, less need for harsh chemicals, and better profits for the industry. Read on to discover how scientists made AI this smart and what it means for the future of mushroom farming.

Send us a text New Matter host Emily Yamasaki, PhD, speaks with Vasumitra “Vasu” Rao, MS, PhD candidate–recipient of the 2025 SLAS Graduate Education Fellowship Grant–about his innovative research at the Jensen Lab (University of Michigan). Vasu’s work focuses on AI-driven characterization of non-model oral bacteria (e.g., Streptococcus mutans), aiming to predict microbial growth dynamics and biofilm formation using neural ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and automated high-through...

For this week's Sea Camp, we're diving below the ocean's surface to explore the sunlight zone, the portion of ocean that's 0-200 meters deep. Here, we zoom in on some spineless inhabitants envied for their "superpowers." Marine biologist Drew Harvell tells us about stealthy sea slugs, sea stars with super strength and life-saving sponges. Also, exciting news!! WE HAVE A NEWSLETTER! It lets you go even deeper with the marine research each week of Sea Camp. Sign up here!Plus, check out the comic we

We often think we need to go all out, HIIT classes, expensive gym memberships, or intense bootcamps, to improve our health. But the truth is, one of the most powerful things you can do for your body is something almost anyone can do, almost anywhere: walking.Yes, just walking. Here’s why I recommend it to almost everyone.1. It supports your heart and circulationWalking improves blood flow, strengthens the heart muscle, and helps regulate blood pressure. Just 30 minutes of brisk walking a day has

This episode explores precognitive dreams—dreams that seem to predict future events. It covers famous historical examples, such as those of Abraham Lincoln and Mark Twain, and examines scientific skepticism, highlighting factors like confirmation bias, coincidence, retrospective interpretation, and subconscious awareness. While there's no solid evidence that dreams truly foresee the future, some theories suggest our minds may detect subtle patterns and simulate likely outcomes. Whether symbolic or
