Study highlights need for cell-type-specific therapies in treatment of HIV
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

Researchers from the University of Illinois have demonstrated the importance of cell-type-specific targeting in the treatment of HIV. Their study, published in PNAS, is one of the first to examine the differential or cell-type specific effects of HIV latency modulation on myeloid cells, a type of immune cell made in bone marrow.

Novel Hybrid Scheme Speeds the Way to Simulating Nuclear Reactions on Quantum Computers
Department of Energy, Office of Science

The interactions of protons and neutrons can be too complex to model using conventional computers and quantum computers face reliability issues. This research combined conventional computers and quantum computers to simulate the scattering of two neutrons. This opens a path to computing nuclear reaction rates for situations that are difficult or impossible to measure in a laboratory.

Melanoma in darker skin tones: Race and sex play a role, Mayo study finds
Mayo Clinic

Melanoma, an aggressive form of skin cancer that accounts for 75% of all skin-cancer-related deaths, is often detected later in people with darker skin complexions — and the consequences can be devastating, a Mayo Clinic study reveals.

Low-loss and polarization insensitive 32 x 4 optical switch for ROADM applications
Chinese Academy of Sciences

Reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexers (ROADM) are critical components in flexible optical networks for the dynamic channel reassignment. A university and industrial collaborative effort in China has led to the development of a compact, integrated optical switch matrix for the ROADM applications that is both low-loss and polarization-independent. Besides optical networks, the newly developed switch matrix platform will open new possibilities in other applications such as quantum processing and photonic neural networks.

Why so many jobs are boring: New MSU study identifies large interest gaps in US labor market
Michigan State University

A recent study out of Michigan State University found large gaps between people’s career interests and U.S. job demands. These gaps indicate that the interest demands of the U.S. labor market differ drastically from the supply of interested people, revealing how many people have unfulfilled interests at work.
