As the HKIAS Senior Fellow at CityUHK and Chair Professor in Theoretical Solid State Physics at Imperial College London, Professor Sir John Pendry will explain the theory behind materials that exhibit virtual motion faster than light and review the current state of experiments realizing this vision.
Houston Methodist researchers will be part of a national consortium funded by an up to $49 million award from the U.S. Government’s Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) to develop a vaccine against two of the most common and destructive strains of herpesviruses that latently infect a majority of Americans and can lead to acute infections, multiple forms of cancer, autoimmune disease and birth defects.
Houston Methodist researchers have developed an advanced mathematical model that predicts how novel treatment combinations could significantly extend progression-free survival for patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the most common type of lung cancer.
The question isn’t if, but when, the next pandemic will hit. Research and observation have identified strong potential for the next pandemic-causing virus to come from one or more of five different virus families.
Voter purging can be an important step for creating election integrity, but others have raised concerns about how the process is conducted and who it targets. So, are there negative effects of voter purging? Researchers from Michigan State University wanted to find out — especially due to the minimal data that exists about who is purged at local and state levels. What their research suggests is that voter purging in Michigan disproportionately targets underrepresented and lower-income communities.
Researchers have mapped pancreatic cancer tumor ecosystems using tissue from both the primary tumor and metastatic disease. The study uncovers notable differences that could lead to new treatment strategies for the often-deadly disease.
Researchers have developed a way to make one type of plastic material more durable and less likely to shed dangerous microplastics.

"5 Things I Learned About Cancer From My Diagnosis" - Journalist Rochelle Broder-Singer offers tips learned from her experience as a breast cancer survivor.
Biodiversity encompasses much more than the number of species—it includes the variety of ecosystems, the genetic diversity within and between species, and the interactions among species within ecosystems.
Why economic forecasts are so often wrong

A few years ago, I had the opportunity to hear Terry Tempest Williams speak at a local event. I don’t remember many details of her talk, but I do remember her passion, her commitment, and her dedication to being a voice for the environment. Her book, Finding Beauty in a Broken World has been a guidepost for me as a science writer and writing instructor.
