Controlling triple quantum dots in a zinc oxide semiconductor

Quantum computers have the potential to solve certain calculations exponentially faster than a classic computer could, but more research is desperately needed to make their practical use a reality. Quantum computers use a basic unit of information called quantum bits (qubits) to run—like how classical computers use a binary system of 0s and 1s, but with many more possibilities.

Higher CO2 levels are making our food more calorific and less nutritious

More CO2 in the atmosphere is making food crops more caloric, less nutritious and potentially more toxic. If we do not intervene, this could cause malnutrition, even in population groups that currently have enough to eat. These are the findings of Leiden research published in Global Change Biology.

Hopkins Sports in Review (Nov. 3 - 10)

Hopkins Sports in Review (Nov. 3 - 10)

Conference championships and NCAA playoffs are underway in an exciting week for Hopkins Sports! Women's soccer and field hockey both brought home the Centennial Conference Championship, while volleyball finished off their regular season with two more conference victories. Men's and women's basketball also both started their seasons on the right foot with undefeated opening weeks. Here's everything you need to know about this week of Hopkins Sports:Volleyball: W (3-1), W (3-0)It was a successful end to a dominant regular season for Volleyball, who polished off a 23-4 season with two more victories. Their first win of the week came over centennial foe Gettysburg three sets to one set. The Blue Jays won two close-fought sets to begin the match before dropping the third set 21-25. However, the Blue Jays won the fourth set to seal the victory.Volleyball ended their week with straight-set victory over Muhlenberg. Senior outside hitter Simone Adam led the way with a team-high 15 kills, while sophomore setter Annika Anderson and senior setter Helena Swaak provided 22 and 21 assists, respectively.Field Hockey: W (1-0), W (4-1)Field Hockey remained unbeatable this week en route to the Centennial Conference title. This week made it 18 in a row for the Blue Jays, who have been riding high all year since losing their second match of the season.Hopkins clinched the Centennial Championship with a 1-0 victory over Haverford and a 4-1 victory over Dickinson. As has been the recipe for success all year, the Blue Jays dominated possession and scoring opportunities. Hopkins managed 19 shots in the contest to Dickinson's four. Senior forward Megan Chang led the way, contributing both a goal and an assist.Men's Basketball: W (76-67)Hopkins men's basketball got off to a strong start to their 2025-2026 campaign with an opening day win over Marymount. The Blue Jays got ahead in the first half and held on in a game where both teams relentlessly attacked the basket. Hopkins only managed nine three-point attempts, while Marymount put 13 three-point shots. The Blue Jays were effective in the paint but struggled at the line, converting only 17 of their 31 attempts. In the end, Marymount's 16 turnovers proved to be decisive as the Blue Jays brought home a season-opening victory. Senior guard Charlie Jackson had an outstanding game on both ends, scoring 24 points on 9-15 shooting while also hauling in six boards to go along with four steals and a block.Women's Soccer: W (1-0), W (2-1)Women's soccer brought home the Centennial Conference championship this week with wins in both semi-finals and finals. The conference finals pitted the Blue Jays against familiar foe Swarthmore, who they lost to early in the year. However, this time a late goal by senior forward Maria Romo-Nichols sealed the deal on a 2-1 Hopkins victory. This was a match where the score lied, as the Blue Jays were in total control, accumulating 26 shots across the contest while only allowing two. A heroic performance by the Swarthmore goalkeepers kept the contest close, but in the end the Blue Jays emerged victorious and as Centennial Conference champions.Women's Basketball: W (95-60), W (70-49)Blue Jay women's basketball had a strong start to their season with back-to-back convincing wins. Opening week began with a 95-60 undoing of Luther College. Hopkins couldn't miss all night, shooting 57% from the field and 47% from 3. Senior guard Macie Feldman was the catalyst, scoring 14 points and adding six rebounds and six assists to a stellar performance.Points were harder to come by in the Blue Jays second game of the year, but Hopkins still took care of business with a comfortable 70-49 win. The bench was the key to success for the Blue Jays in this one. Freshman guard Faith Williamson led the game in scoring off the bench with 12, while senior forward Emily Collins also contributed a near double-double from the second unit with 10 points and nine boards.

Longeveron Granted U.S. Patent for Method of Treating Aging-related Frailty in Patients with Inflammaging Using its Proprietary Stem Cell Therapy

The patent relates to methods of administering therapeutically effective amounts of isolated allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to patients with aging-related frailty with inflammagingNo approved treatments for aging-related frailty, a syndrome affecting older individuals that impairs human Healthspan, and is characterized by weakness, low physical activity, slowed motor performance, exhaustion, and unintentional weight lossLaromestrocel, a mesenchymal stem cell therapy, has delivered positive initial results across two clinical trials in aging-related frailtyMIAMI, Nov. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Longeveron Inc. (NASDAQ:LGVN), a clinical stage biotechnology company developing cellular therapy for life-threatening, rare pediatric and chronic aging-related conditions, today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has granted a patent covering administration of the Company's proprietary Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) for the treatment of patients with symptoms of aging-related frailty.U.S. Patent No. 12,465,620, entitled "Method of Treating Aging Frailty in Subjects with Inflammaging Using Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells," provides Longeveron with patent rights in the United States through 2038. Further patent term extension may occur along with regulatory exclusivity extensions.Aging-related frailty is a syndrome of multisystem physiological dysregulation occurring in older individuals which diminishes human healthspan. The symptoms of aging-related frailty include weakness, low physical activity, slowed motor performance, exhaustion, and unintentional weight loss. Many studies show a direct correlation between aging-related frailty and inflammation. Inflammaging has received considerable attention because it proposes a link between immune changes and a number of diseases and conditions (such as aging-related frailty) common in old age.Longeveron has previously conducted Phase 1 and 2 studies in aging-related frailty designed to show improvements in the six-minute walk test and physical functioning for its lead MSC drug, laromestrocel.About laromestrocel (Lomecel-B®)Laromestrocel is a living cell product made from specialized cells isolated from the bone marrow of young healthy adult donors. These specialized cells, known as mesenchymal signaling cells (MSCs), are essential to our endogenous biological repair mechanism. MSCs have been shown to perform a number of complex functions in the body, including the formation of new tissue. They also have been shown to respond to sites of injury or disease and ...Full story available on Benzinga.com

New Computational Process Could Help Condense Decades of Disease Biology Research Into Days

At 10 one-millionths of a meter wide, a single human cell is tiny. But something even smaller exerts an enormous influence on everything a cell does: proton concentration, or pH. On the microscopic level, pH-dependent structures regulate cell movement and division. Altered pH response can accelerate the development of cancers and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Huntington's.
