from 🎙️ Science News Daily | Peer Review'd · host Peer Review'd
A massive study of nearly 2 million people reveals how protein buildup in brain blood vessels quadruples dementia risk within five years. Scientists propose 'dark stars'—hypothetical objects powered by dark matter—to explain impossible early universe mysteries captured by the James Webb telescope. Quantum computing breakthroughs using diamond defects could finally unlock million-qubit systems, while researchers discover cancer cells sabotage immunotherapy by releasing immune-blocking proteins that statins can stop. Plus: why your air fryer is healthier than traditional cooking, how one gene controls gut bacteria defense, and the troubling link between fat distribution patterns and accelerated brain aging.Subscribe to Peer Review'd Newsletter: https://peerreviewd.com/Love Science?
