  5. May’s Monthly Links

    So now we bring you this month’s selection of links to items you wish you hadn’t missed. And it’s a well packed edition …

    Science, Technology, Natural World

    Apart from traumatic, what it would have been like to experience the dinosaur‑killing asteroid? [LONG READ]

    There’s a huge amount of “space junk” above our heads: almost half of what’s in earth orbit is junk – and that’s only what we know about. [££££]

    And while we’re talking of things going round … Astronomers have just found over ten thousand new exoplanet candidates.

    Meanwhile there are some pieces of the cosmos being ignored by astronomers. [££££]

    It seems that the universe could be any one of 18 possible shapes. [££££]

    Let’s come back down to Earth … Researchers are beginning to understand how Egypt’s Great Pyramid has withstood earthquakes etc. for over 4500 years. [££££]

    There are new insights into whether plants can hear.

    [Illustrations NSFW] “Slow Blink” communication with your cat.

    Scientists are developing tiny robots that can learn to navigate like honeybees. [££££]

    On birds’ eyes and why their visual perception is almost second to none. [LONG READ]

    At the other end of life on earth scientists have found a tiny fish that looks like Mr Snuffleupagus (below). [££££]

    And finally in this section New Scientist had a piece on the renowned mathematician who doesn’t exist. [££££]

    Health, Medicine

    An interview with two scientists who have been working flat out to develop a test for hantavirus. [££££]

    An American look at what the response to the hantavirus “scare” has brought to the surface – and a brilliant example of how to do public health leadership. [LONG READ]

    So did the Ancient Egyptians invent the pregnancy test?

    Along with that women have been using cannabis medicinally for thousands of years.

    Twins. Born within minutes of each other. But they have different fathers!

    Sexuality & Relationships

    Sexual health after 60: aging, hormones & intimacy.

    Sex after 35: apparently the female body was not designed for the sex most women are having. [LONG READ]

    So what really does happen to a woman’s body during orgasm?

    One man’s experience of vasectomy leads him to wonder why the procedure isn’t more common.

    History, Archaeology, Anthropology

    Were the Neanderthals the first dentists? One article from Scientific American, and a second from The Guardian.

    A research team have published a new, online, map of Roman roads across their empire.

    It’s long been supposed that after the Romans left Britain the Anglo-Saxons took over and totally replace the indigenous population. But DNA analysis tells us otherwise. [LONG READ]

    It seems strange, but early medieval Ireland had laws protecting bees.

    So who invented the corridor? [LONG READ]

    There are tunnels under Bloxham, Oxfordshire. But what are they for? [LONG READ]

    There’s a forgotten cock pit under Whitehall. [Now, now. That’s enough of that!]

    London

    And finally … Matt Brown has released the latest coloured section of John Rocque’s 1746 map of London. This time it’s Limehouse and Rotherhithe.

  8. Eli Lilly is preparing a phase 2 trial for VERVE-102, a one-time gene editor acquired from Verve Therapeutics. The highest dose cut LDL cholesterol by 62% in patients, a reduction sustained for up to 18 months across 35 participants.

    The treatment permanently switches off PCSK9, a cholesterol-producing gene, using base editing that flips a single DNA letter without breaking the double helix.

    TITLE: STAT+: How Stanford patients help expose ‘fault lines’ in health AI adoption

    URL: statnews.com/2026/05/27/stanfo

    At Stanford University, it’s easy to get carried away with technology. The computer mouse was invented there. So was Google. And now, it’s pumping out a myriad of tools for artificial intelligence in health care.

    But for the last year and a half, Stanford’s hospital has been asking patients about new AI tools before they roll them out. 

    Eric Gries is one of those people, handpicked by Stanford as part of a “patient panel.” Gries was the caregiver for his wife while she was first on a left ventricular assist device (LVAD), then had a heart transplant. He later became the temporary caregiver for his brother-in-law when he also had a heart transplant.

  18. In Japanese, one word used for "ugly" is "busu" (「ブス」). (It really should go without saying that this is an offensive word, and not to be casually slung around other people!) How this word came to be is a rather fascinating look in the history of a notorious plant poison.

    Japanese monkshood (commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Aco) is a plant with showy flowers and a very toxic alkaloid. The poison in monkshood is potent enough that the Ainu used it to tip their arrows for hunting bears and other game. Dried monkshood root is called "busu" (「附子」); in a diluted form, it was often used for its anesthetic, numbing qualities.

  23. Video - Cuban Doctors in Italy and Africa: A Documentary Screening With Belly of the Beast
    peertube.world/w/j7Jay9jJJe27A
    Duration - 5:49

    [a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

    BotB recently held a screening of two documentaries on Cuban #medical missions. One is focused on #Cuban #doctors deployed to #Calabria, #Italy, and another follows a brigade of #African students from #ELAM (Cuba's #LatinAmerican School of #Medicine), who traveled to #GuineaBissau to provide medical care based on the training they received on the island.

    Some of the ELAM students attended the screening and were given a standing ovation.

    One audience member said: "Thank you for being heroes, not just of Cuba, but of the entire world."

  33. One infusion. One time. Possibly forever. A breakthrough gene-editing treatment just slashed LDL "bad" cholesterol by up to 62% — and the results are holding 18 months later. Published in the New England Journal of Medicine, the small study of 35 patients could reshape how we fight heart disease, which kills 800,000 Americans annually. No daily pills. No repeat treatments. Just one shot. Experts call it potentially "game-changing." Larger trials are next — but the early signs are extraordinary. The future of heart health may have just arrived. #HeartDisease #GeneTherapy #MedicalBreakthrough #Cholesterol #Health #Science #Medicine #NEJM #Innovation #Healthcare nytimes.com/2026/05/25/health/
