A new Spinosaurus species uncovered in northern Niger appears to have been a wading predator of fish like its close relatives, but it lived as many as 1000 kilometers inland from the Tethys Sea. The fossil find may represent a third phase of evolution for this group of massive, fish-eating dinosaurs. Learn more this week in Science:

PM of Norway Jonas Gahr Støre: The cooperation here with Ukraine is shifting its nature. It is now much more of a two-way street, because Ukraine has a lot to offer. This is perhaps the strongest army in Europe, and with an immense ability to innovate.

Experimenting with image-to-world: creating consistent 3D environments from a single photo. As someone who studied architecture, this feels like a glimpse into the future of spatial creation and I’m excited to see where World Labs takes it.

🚨 SCIENTISTS JUST REVERSED AGING IN BLOOD STEM CELLS Researchers at Mount Sinai restored old blood stem cells to a youthful state by repairing tiny cellular recycling systems called lysosomes. In mice, aged stem cells regained the ability to: • regenerate healthy blood • rebuild immune cells • reduce inflammation • behave like young stem cells again One treatment increased blood-forming capacity by more than 8x. Why this matters: Your blood stem cells are responsible for constantly rebuilding your immune system and blood supply throughout life. As they age: • immunity weakens • inflammation rises • cancer risk increases • regeneration declines But this study suggests aging inside these cells may not be permanent. Scientists may have found a biological “reset switch.” The future of anti-aging may not come from replacing organs… …but from restoring the cells that rebuild the body itself. Follow for more future physics and biotech breakthroughs.

Hammer a nail into a tree, and it will get stuck. So why doesn't the same thing happen to the sharp beaks of woodpeckers? Scientists may finally have the answer. In a 2021 study, researchers took high-speed videos of two black woodpeckers pecking away at hardwood trunks in zoos and analyzed them frame by frame to see how the head and beak moved throughout each peck. The bird's secret: an ability to move its upper and lower beaks independently, the team reports. Learn more: #ScienceMagArchives

The insect is dead, but a different organism has taken control of its nerves and is now in total control of its direction. It has invaded the insect’s body, grown inside it, and now manipulates its behavior to complete its own life cycle. -Just like what has happened to the Green Party

🚨 SCIENTISTS JUST DOSED THE FIRST PATIENT IN A TRIAL TO REVERSE CELLULAR AGING IN THE HUMAN EYE. Life Biosciences has begun an FDA-approved clinical trial using cellular reprogramming to regenerate aging neurons in the optic nerve of glaucoma patients. Instead of just slowing vision loss, the goal is to actually reverse aspects of cellular aging in the eye essentially trying to make old nerve cells young again. Why this matters: • Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness worldwide, caused by damage to the optic nerve • Current treatments can only slow progression they cannot regenerate lost vision • This approach uses partial cellular reprogramming (a controlled form of turning back the biological clock) • If successful, it could open the door to treating many other age-related neurodegenerative diseases The deeper implication is enormous: We may be entering an era where aging itself becomes treatable not just its symptoms. If we can safely reprogram cells in the eye, the same technology could eventually be applied to the brain, spine, and other organs. The first patient has now been dosed. This is no longer just theory. What do you think are we ready to start treating aging as a medical condition? Follow for more frontier science and longevity breakthroughs.

Israel is building tiny robots inside your body. Researchers at the Technion have developed DNA origami nanorobots, programmable microscopic machines (just 100 nanometers wide) made entirely from DNA. These tiny “robots” navigate through the bloodstream, detect specific cancer cell markers, and then deploy a targeted toxin directly into tumors, while completely sparing healthy cells. In recent trials on aggressive cancers, they’ve shown incredible precision and effectiveness. This isn’t science fiction anymore. It’s Israeli innovation turning the body into its own battlefield against disease. From the lab bench to potentially saving millions of lives worldwide. Proud every single day. 🇮🇱 #StartupNation #IsraeliInnovation #Nanorobotics #DNAOrigami #CancerTreatment
