Today on In Case You Missed It: Scientists managed to turn taste on and off in mice by activating and silencing brain cells, putting to bed the notion that taste is determined by the tongue. University of Toronto cancer researchers used patient’s genetic material to craft a cancerous mass on a long strip of collagen, then wound it up and gave it the same radiation and chemo drugs a patient would get for that type of cancer. They can then stretch the roll out to see whether the treatment killed the cancer cells. The team hopes to take the method to trials one day, eventually tailoring people’s cancer treatments to their own genetics. And the first battle in the private company space race just went to Blue Origin over Space X, for landing its reusable rocket first.
Finally, if you need a lift, there’s not much better today than the celebrating teenagers in the video of the kid who just set another record for solving a rubik’s cube.
