New data from our prostate cancer T-Cell Engager was just released and it is significantly helped 82% of patients with aggressive metastatic prostate cancer who were out of options with some patients showing lasting tumor regression with few mild side effects. It’s days like this that keep be engaged in my work…I was involved with the development of this drug since it was just an idea 💡, it’s great to see it transforming patients lives and very exciting to have such positive clinical trial results. 🧬 🧪 More info here if anyone is interested. https://investors.vir.bio/news/news-details/2026/Vir-Biotechnology-Reports-Positive-Updated-Phase-1-Results-for-PSMA-targeting-PRO-XTEN-Dual-masked-T-Cell-Engager-VIR-5500-in-Patients-with-Metastatic-Prostate-Cancer/default.aspx

Imagine never getting a cold, flu, more Covid ever again. Researchers at Stanford are about to start human trials on a new type of "vaccine." https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx2g8rz7yedo

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-025-09920-0 "This discovery marks the first time scientists have directly observed the transformation of virtual "nothingness" into tangible, detectable matter. When protons collide at near-light speeds, the resulting energy promotes virtual particles into reality, allowing researchers to trace their origins back to the quantum vacuum. The fact that these "quantum twins" maintain their spin alignment during the transition suggests a deep, surviving connection between the vacuum and the visible universe. This breakthrough offers a revolutionary window into how fundamental properties emerge and could eventually help solve the mystery of how quarks bind together to form the atoms that build our world." - soulpost via: https://www.reddit.com/r/HotScienceNews/comments/1r19zdp/worlds_first_particle_collider_shows_matter/

Subnautica technology but for planet Earth. Who's building this? https://youtu.be/59xmMu0BMzc?si=7zrTD4VwrWq8eIus

Just taking a second to acknowledge some of the crazy advances made in bio in Jan as well as the Steel paper: new DNA assembly method that made $twist pump: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-025-10006-0 Alphagenome: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-025-10014-0 Also, why did George Church visit Epstein’s island 💀

I just realized that the first Artemis launch is scheduled for March of this year. This will send humans the furthest away from Earth ever, with the planned boots on lunar soil for 2027. Bruh I remember hearing this back in like high school and it’s finally happening.

I’m glad that Curt Jaimungal has been releasing multiple interviews of Roger Penrose lately, including on consciousness. The man’s a civilizational treasure and arguably one of, if not the brightest scientific minds still alive. We need to capture and document as many of his thoughts while we still can

Few things in molecular biology as satisfying as gel electrophoresis. This is a method that separates dna based on its length by applying a current to an agarose del with dyed DNA. Please excuse my 3x coffee shakey hands😂

In science it’s a rat race to be the first person to do something. On that note, bet I’m the only person in the world to have listened to Tim Reaper while reading about engineering magneto sensitive proteins as quantum sensors. Mix and DOI below so protocol can be reproduced x https://on.soundcloud.com/idr6Um0cZAfG8t6ePM https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-025-09971-3
