We’re at a point where these sorts of simple genetic disorders are going to be falling to CRISPR-Cas9 treatments one after another in an accelerating fashion until we run out of targets.
They raise troubling questions about access to care and cost. Ask why we still have people with active Sickle Cell disease, years after the CURE was demonstrated.
The reason is that no one is stepping up with the megabuck per patient. @…

Everyday microplastics could be fueling heart disease
Microplastics—tiny particles now found in food, water, air, and even human tissues—may directly accelerate artery-clogging disease, and new research shows the danger may be far greater for males.

Welp, after a day or two of fermentation and a few hours preparing the accompaniments, like the potato filling, the 'gunpowder' to sprinkle over it, and both tomato and coconut chutneys (all made from scratch, even involving cracking a fresh coconut!), I've made my first ever dosas. I'm quite chuffed by the result. It's a lot of work for a one-off...

Deforestation and disease spread as Nicaragua ignores illegal cattle ranching
Illegal cattle ranching has torn through Nicaragua’s rainforests in recent years, supplying a growing international market for meat despite calls for better oversight of the industry.
