North Carolina could ban face masks for medical reasons in public
The North Carolina state Senate voted along party lines Wednesday to ban anyone from wearing masks in public, even for health reasons. Republican supporters of the ban said it would help law enforcement crackdown on protesters who wear masks. They say demonstrators are abusing COVID-19 pandemic-era practices to hide their identities following a wave of…

As the world prepares for future and ongoing global health threats from RNA viruses such as the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic,
breakthrough advances in antiviral development are becoming a critical weapon in the fight against these infectious diseases.
At the heart of this innovation is the exploration of CRISPR/Cas13 systems,
which are known for their programmable capabilities to manipulate RNAs and have become indispensable tools for various RNA targeting applications.
Howeve…

Cas13d-NCS: A game-changer in RNA virus defense
The rise of RNA viruses like SARS-CoV-2 highlights the need for new ways to fight them. RNA-targeting tools like CRISPR/Cas13 are powerful but inefficient in the cytoplasm of cells, where many RNA viruses replicate.

Turán numbers for non-bipartite graphs and applications to spectral extremal problems
Given a graph family $\mathcal{H}$ with $\min_{H\in \mathcal{H}}χ(H)=r+1\geq 3$. Let ${\rm ex}(n,\mathcal{H})$ and ${\rm spex}(n,\mathcal{H})$ be the maximum number of edges and the maximum spectral radius of the adjacency matrix over all $\mathcal{H}$-free graphs of order $n$, respectively. Denote by ${\rm EX}(n,\mathcal{H})$ (resp. ${\rm SPEX}(n,\mathcal{H})$) the set of extremal graphs with respect to ${\rm ex}(n,\mathcal{H})$ (resp. ${\rm spex}(n,\mathcal{H})$). In this paper, we use a d…

Using advanced genetic techniques, scientists create mice with traits of Tourette disorder
In research that may be a step forward toward finding personalized treatments for Tourette disorder, scientists at Rutgers University–New Brunswick have bred mice that exhibit some of the same behaviors and brain abnormalities seen in humans with the disorder.

Forgiving medical debt after it is sent to collections has fewer benefits – study
“If you’re intervening only after the debt has been sent to collections or after the hospital has been collecting on it for a year, there’s very little benefit,” said Kluender.
The findings are likely to disappoint legislative leaders. At least 15 states and local jurisdictions have worked with "RIP Medical Debt" to relieve debts for their constituents.
Many, such as Arizona and Con…

Perfect matchings in random sparsifications of Dirac hypergraphs
For all integers $n \geq k > d \geq 1$, let $m_{d}(k,n)$ be the minimum integer $D \geq 0$ such that every $k$-uniform $n$-vertex hypergraph $\mathcal H$ with minimum $d$-degree $δ_{d}(\mathcal H)$ at least $D$ has an optimal matching. For every fixed integer $k \geq 3$, we show that for $n \in k \mathbb{N}$ and $p = Ω(n^{-k+1} \log n)$, if $\mathcal H$ is an $n$-vertex $k$-uniform hypergraph with $δ_{k-1}(\mathcal H) \geq m_{k-1}(k,n)$, then a.a.s.\ its $p$-random subhypergraph $\mathcal H_…
