THE EDITIONS

Keep what we knew, when we knew it.

Each edition preserves its readings, evidence and topic states together.

Issue insights

· Shared knowledge and the data each patient still needs ↗

· Are we removing the reasons drugs fail from our experiments? ↗

· Research AI cannot be priced by the number of candidates it produces ↗

· How should we pay for the work that makes a treatment possible? ↗

· Investing in What Comes After Discovery ↗

· If AI Can Solve It, What Do You Sell? ↗

· From Buying Scientific AI to Helping Develop It ↗

Using the same lesson across different actions, without confusing them

Mouse tasks with different actions and a shared reward delay showed shared cortical activity and task-dependent cerebellar separation that preserved temporal structure. A computational model combined faster learning with reduced interference. → Mouse tasks with different actions and a shared reward delay showed shared cortical activity and task-dependent cerebellar separation that preserved temporal structure.

Changing treatment before scans show progression: a new relationship between breast cancer drugs and blood tests

European certification was added for Guardant360 CDx. Earlier switching prolonged PFS in selected SERENA-6 patients, while SERENA-4 under different conditions missed its primary endpoint. FDA requires confirmation comparing early switching with switching at progression. → European certification was added for Guardant360 CDx.

Does an antibody that binds well make a good development candidate?

A common-condition study of 511 sequences from 29 organizations found different performance in improvement and ranking tasks. Cradle’s high-affinity candidate passed the aggregate threshold but retained concerns in individual developability assays. → A common-condition study of 511 sequences from 29 organizations found different performance in improvement and ranking tasks.

Can the same information remain readable as neural activity changes?

Flexible electrodes tracked the same mouse neurons over months. Aligning activity across recording days improved decoding of temporal information in a repeated movie. The analysis also used responses from the new day. → Flexible electrodes tracked the same mouse neurons over months.

Why does the same inflammation affect some fetuses but not others?

Within 24 hours of immune stimulation in mice, developmental abnormalities were reported in roughly 30% of fetuses, limited to a subset of males. Affected fetuses also showed placental inflammatory changes, structural disruption and immune-cell and cytokine accumulation in amniotic fluid. → Within 24 hours of immune stimulation in mice, developmental abnormalities were reported in roughly 30% of fetuses, limited to a subset of males.
