Notorious Fungus Blamed for ‘Mummy’s Curse’ Is Now a Promising Cancer Treatment

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-08-23 17:00:30

In the 1920s, a number of workers on the excavation team that uncovered King Tutankhamun’s tomb met untimely deaths. Five decades later, 10 out of 12 scientists died after entering the tomb of the 15th-century Polish King Casimir IV. In both cases, researchers suggested that fungal spores could have played a role in the mysterious deaths, specifically identifying the fungus Aspergillus flavus within the Polish burial. A. flavus is now making a comeback, but not as a reawakened killer from ancie

Scientists Launch Wild New Project to Build a Human Genome From Scratch

gizmodo.com Natalia Mesa 2025-08-23 19:00:04

A team of UK-based researchers is going where no scientist has dared to go—writing artificial human DNA from scratch. They’re hoping the project will answer fundamental questions about the human genome and transform our understanding of health and disease. But the research topic is, for obvious reasons, controversial. Scientists have largely steered clear of trying to create full synthetic human genomes, wary of propelling us into a dystopian, Gattaca-esque future full of designer babies. Now,

When piecing together the cultural practices of ancient humans, traditional archaeologists rely on clues from artifacts such as tools, bones, and pottery. Experimental archaeologists, however, go a step further—recreating past behaviors to experience how people once lived. That’s precisely what a team of researchers recently did to investigate how Stone Age communities in northeastern Europe extracted animal teeth to produce accessories.

Normalizing Flows (NFs) are likelihood-based models for continuous inputs.

In this work, we demonstrate that NFs are more powerful than previously believed. We present TarFlow: a simple and scalable architecture that enables highly performant NF models.
