Weekly Review #21 – Summary of the latest news in science and technology research across the world, carefully handpicked by team Research Stash

Scientists have designed an Analytical Tool that Predicts Disease-Causing Genes

Predicting genes that can cause disease due to the production of truncated or altered proteins that take on a new or different function, rather than those that lose their function, is now possible thanks to an international team of researchers, including researchers from Baylor College of Medicine, that has developed a new analytical tool to effectively and efficiently predict such candidate genes.

Milky Way’s black hole provides a long-sought test of Einstein’s general relativity

Astronomers have caught the giant black hole at our galaxy’s center stretching the light emitted by an orbiting star — nearly three decades after they first starting tracking the star. Read More

Dads Pass On More Than Genetics in Their Sperm 

Seminal research reveals that sperm changes their cargo as they travel the reproductive tract—and the differences can have consequences for fertility Read more

Stem cell breakthrough might help scientists understand why miscarriages happen

All mammals experience a moment in the early stages of life where they’re nothing more than a handful of cells bouncing around a uterus. Read More

Liquid water lake found on the Red Planet

Scientists have uncovered a “a stable body of liquid water” on Mars, in what some are calling a “game changer” in the search for alien life. Read More

Physicists demonstrate a new method to make single photons

Scientists need individual photons for quantum cryptography and quantum computers. Leiden physicists have now experimentally demonstrated a new production method. Read more

High-quality genomes reveal new differences between the great apes

High-quality genome sequences for some of the great apes have been assembled using state-of-the-art sequencing tools. The assemblies provide an unbiased comparison between humans and their closest evolutionary relatives. Read More

Scientists find ‘unprecedented’ reversal of wrinkles and hair loss

At the University of Alabama at Birmingham, scientists researched a way to reverse the visible aging process. Published Friday in Cell Death & Disease, the team revealed its process to turn off the mutation that causes symptoms of aging in mice. Read More

For The First Time, Scientists Witness a Single Hurricane Season Change The Anatomy of a Species

Caribbean lizards that survived the tough 2017 hurricane season have larger toe pads, on both front and back limbs, report researchers. The work is first to demonstrate the effects of hurricane-induced natural selection. Read More

Physicists Are Testing a Mysterious Force That Exists Between Superconducting Wires

Two of the most bizarre phenomena in quantum physics have been brought together in a single experiment for the first time – and scientists are already using the set-up to probe the very limits of reality. Read More
